Your photos aren’t bad, you just need to learn how to edit them!

Welcome to Underwater Art - Your Underwater Photography Journey’s Best Friend!

Underwater photography presents a very unique set of challenges—from loss of lighting and unwanted colour shifts to backscatter and noise. While capturing an good shot in-camera is essential, the post-processing is where you truly bring your underwater images to life.

This guide is designed to walk you through the editing techniques I personally use to transform my RAW underwater photos into my signature contrasted, high-quality edited artworks.

🥜 In a nutshell, this guide is everything my younger self needed to know (and spent years learning myself) about the underwater photography and post-production editing process!

Why Editing is Essential for Underwater Photography

Are your RAW images green and flat straight from the camera?

Water absorbs and scatters light differently to air, causing images to lose contrast, sharpness, and natural colours—especially reds and yellows. Even with proper camera settings and lighting techniques, RAW images can often appear a yucky blue or green colour with muted tones. Post-processing allows you to correct these issues, bringing back the colours, depth, and clarity that make your underwater shots stand out. Even your ‘worst’ images are salvageable, trust me!

What’s Inside?

This guide is structured to help you navigate the most important aspects of underwater photo editing, regardless of your experience level. Some of the key highlights include:

Why Lightroom CC instead of Lightroom Classic?

This is one of my most frequently asked questions when teaching my work! While I sometimes do work with Lightroom Classic, Lightroom CC is ideal for photographers who prefer a mobile, cloud-based, and AI-powered editing solution. Unlike Lightroom Classic, which requires local storage, Lightroom CC syncs edits across all devices, making it perfect for those who travel frequently or edit on the go (like myself).

If I don’t have access to my laptop or want to process a quick edit, I can do so seamlessly on my phone!

For those new to underwater photo editing, Lightroom CC offers a more accessible and intuitive experience. It is designed with simplicity in mind, making it easier for beginners to navigate and apply edits without getting overwhelmed by complex menus 🧠
