Neil Craver has been able to capture the human form underwater better than we’ve seen in a long time. It draws upon the colored underwater stills from Michael Muller’s great white shark series but instead of ferocity we are given elegance. Neil speaks to the series in an abstract sense of Omni-Phantasmic essentially defined as A combining form denoting all, every, everywhere; as in omnipotent, all-powerful; omnipresent; omnivorous.
We were very moved by this work and love imagining the technical aspects of this shoot. Photographing models this deep underwater must have taken quite a bit of physical exertion and it’s evident that there was symbiosis between Neil and his models throughout this shoot.
