I’m Daniel Nicholson, an underwater photographer with a deep connection to the ocean. Born and raised on the east coast of Australia, I developed a love for the sea and its wonders from an early age.
โโ
For many years now, I’ve had the privilege of working as a professional underwater photographer, traveling to some of the most exciting and remote corners of our oceans on assignment.
Through my photography, I strive to share the beauty and magic of the underwater world with those who can’t experience it firsthand. My goal is to inspire a love for the ocean, encourage conservation efforts, and foster a deeper understanding of the need to protect its diverse ecosystems.
Welcome!
After years of working as a professional underwater photographer, I’ve created The Underwater Photography Academy — an all-in-one platform where you can learn everything about capturing the ocean through your lens.
โ
โInside, you’ll get complete courses that walk you through every step — from choosing the right gear and nailing your camera settings, to mastering strobe lighting and editing your photos into works of art. With over 150 on-demand lessons, a full eBook, downloadable resources, and a vibrant community, you’ll have the exact roadmap to creating jaw-dropping images beneath the surface.
โIf you’ve ever felt frustrated that your photos don’t capture the magic of what you see underwater, this is where it changes. Learn anywhere, anytime, on any device — and skip years of trial and error. Start turning your dives into breathtaking imagery that stands out and tells powerful stories.โโ
Want to take your photos and videos to the next level with just one click?
These presets are the result of years of working as a professional underwater photographer, and I personally use them on ALL of my images and videos.
