Take home images of yourself in the ocean: a private session at sea with an underwater photographer, to capture your best moments in Dhigurah's turquoise water.
A trip set during your stay
No day to pick: you enter your stay dates, and Margaux contacts you to set the best moment with you, depending on your availability and the weather. If no day works, ask for a refund of the pre-booking.
The experience
Swimming above a reef, freediving into the blue, floating at the surface of the lagoon: the best images of the Maldives are taken underwater, and it takes an underwater photographer's eye and gear to get them right.
The session is entirely private, for you alone, as a couple or up to three people. You choose the length, from one to three hours, and the photographer guides you in the water for both photos and videos.

Why is there no date to choose?
In the Maldives, everything depends on weather, sea conditions and wildlife. You enter your stay dates, and the best day is chosen on site. Margaux contacts you to set it with you.

No, the session is done snorkeling. Being comfortable in the water is enough, the photographer adapts to your level.
