About this listen
In this episode, Michael is joined by portrait and underwater photographer Chelsea Erwin for a conversation that dives beneath the surface—literally and creatively. From gear and light to trust and direction, this episode explores how underwater photography pushes us to communicate clearly, shoot with intention, and create work that feels emotionally alive.
We talk about:
How Chelsea’s surf photography background led to underwater portraits
What it really takes to protect your gear (and your peace of mind) underwater
How to communicate with clients when words don’t work
Why relaxation is the secret to strong underwater images
Creative advantages of “anti-gravity” posing and fluid movement
The emotional depth water brings to maternity and couples sessions
Whether you're curious about shooting underwater or just want to improve how you direct and connect with clients, this episode offers practical insight with a healthy dose of wonder.
