Shalini Tewari started her journey as an underwater photographer in 2009 with Sport Diver magazine in Curacao and Tobago. Determined to turn it into a career, she was fortunate to find and manage a South African dive magazine while based in Cape Town. This afforded her the opportunity to travel around southern Africa documenting exciting dive destinations. She has run underwater photography internships helping students learn how to showcase the underwater environment through blogs, articles and images. Shalini would like to continue along this path and develop her skills further in various multimedia forms in order to encourage interest and excitement for the marine environment.
