90% of the commercial shoots we do involves working with a photographer. Still imagery is still the bedrock of a brand’s marketing content so on most sets the photographer has priority. A combined effort and communication with the photographer is key to a successful shoot. One of the best we get to work with is Aaron Okayama. Both above the water and below the water, he’s the guy capturing the images for Speedo USA. He’s an expert at working with world class athletes and complex underwater lighting situations. Below are a few BTS frame grabs we took of “AO” doing his thing during a nighttime shoot for Speedo USA, plus a few of his own pics at the bottom. You can see more of his work at aaronokayama.com
