- Mathieu Meur
- Mathieu has been shooting underwater for over 20 years, at first free-diving and subsequently scuba diving. A true pioneer, Mathieu was one of the early adopters and promoters of digital technology for underwater photography, authoring presumably the first PADI-approved digital underwater photography specialty course in the world in 2001. He went on to contribute regular columns on photography techniques to dive and photography publications. In 2004, Mathieu co-authored An Essential Guide to Digital Underwater Photography with Michael Aw. This was the first book entirely dedicated to the techniques associated with shooting digital beneath the surface. An updated version was published in 2005. He then co-authored An Advanced Guide to Digital Underwater Photography with Michael Aw in 2007. He also wrote the first comprehensive, interactive iBook on the topic, entitled Complete Guide to Digital Underwater Photography.. Mathieu is a regular speaker at dive events and a regular judge at underwater photography competitions, and frequently coaches at underwater photography workshops.
