    Wow thank you for the advice, personally about to go into the diving industry and photography is a huge hobby of mine. I'd love to incorporate the both into an amazing career!

    I really want to do this career and I stay in Georgia

      Not a lot of great underwater photography subjects in Georgia. It would be very tough to make a living without either a lot of travel or relocating.

      @@litzyflores7018 1) Learn to be a great underwater photographer. 2) Find a professional with whom you can apprentice, wherever they are. It means you probably will have to move. 3) When you get enough experience, go out on your own. If you become successful, you can live in Georgia and travel to where the work is happening. If you're not willing to move for your career, then you're not serious about this career. I advise you to listen to this song by Tim McGraw very carefully. ua-cam.com/video/mfQFU0omkJI/v-deo.html

    I would really Like to make this a career, I live in India. I am camera person but have no experience in diving. What suggestions will you give? I really interested in the ocean and I am ready relocate if need be.

      Take diving lessons and see if you like being underwater. Not everyone adapts well. You have to be a proficient diver before you can begin to be an underwater photographer.

      @@banjaara.s Take any diving courses you can; deep diving, night diving, rescue diving, advanced diving. You need to be an excellent diver, before you can expect to handle a camera. Then, take underwater photography course from a professional. This is a tough way to make a living.
