Travelling has always been our passion, photography the ulterior motive.
For more than a decade we travelled the globe incessantly, all the while documenting and photographing, until we felt the need to explore the underwater realm in the same way.
Almost 10 000 dives later, and we were both BITTEN BY SHARKS. Both on the left arm, and within a few months of each other. The experience was life-changing, but not in the way one might expect. We took it all in our stride and recognised that the sharks' teeth had touched more than mere skin and bone. Somewhere deep within, the sharks had connected with us both and rekindled our spirit of adventure; ever since, we have been on a quest to find the ocean's ultimate hidden treasures. The quest has led us off the beaten path in the face of the planet's ultimate adventures!
Our shark scars remain a testament to our special bond with the ocean. Every now and then, we subconsciously rub our scars just as one would rub a lamp in the hopes of a genie appearing. With or without the genie, the wish is always the same: that our imagery could in some small way, contribute towards preserving the ocean and it's phenomenal scenic wonder; that our seemingly futile attempts to capture her magnificence, might help to preserve her integrity for the many generations to come... These are our adventures.....
