The Scenography of Erasure: photograph without flash, without disturbing marine life. A technique taught nowhere else in Belgium or in French-speaking countries.
AquaExposure is a partner of DAN Europe (diving safety) and Green Fins (marine conservation). A Belgian course with international recognition.
Whether you are affiliated with LIFRAS, NELOS or an international federation, the AquaExposure course is designed to integrate into your current practice.
Quick access to the Ciney quarries (1h15) and Zeeland (2h30). The online course prepares you to photograph in these two very different environments.
The Tilff quarry on the Ourthe is your ideal training ground. Varied freshwater fauna, good visibility in summer. The animal approach technique developed in the course applies perfectly here.
Ciney, Pont-a-Lesse, Marche-en-Famenne. The province of Namur has the best Belgian diving quarries. Benjamin Coste, based in Chaumont-Gistoux, knows them all.
AquaExposure is the only ethical underwater photography course founded and taught by a PADI SDI instructor based in Belgium. Based in Chaumont-Gistoux (Walloon Brabant), it is accessible from all of Belgium thanks to its 100% online format. There is no other Belgian school offering such a comprehensive programme focused on natural photography without artificial lighting.
Yes, the course is entirely online (10 video modules + downloadable sheets). You can follow it from Brussels, Liege, Namur, Charleroi, Ghent, Antwerp, Bruges or any other Belgian city. There is no mandatory travel. The techniques learned apply directly to Belgian dive sites (Ciney, Tilff, Pont-a-Lesse quarries) and border sites (Zeeland).
No. The theoretical part (video modules + sheets) is accessible to any diver, regardless of level or certification (PADI, CMAS, SSI, NAUI, LIFRAS). For practical sessions in natural environments, an Open Water level (or equivalent CMAS 1 star) is recommended. The AquaExposure course is recognised by international organisations such as DAN Europe and Green Fins.

AquaExposure is available from EUR 24.50/month (text access), EUR 239/year (slides included) or EUR 350 for lifetime access (video Masterclasses included). By comparison, a traditional underwater photography course in Belgium or France typically costs between EUR 500 and EUR 900 for a single weekend, without follow-up or the depth of content offered here.
The only Belgian course that teaches you to bring back images that other divers don't.
Zeeland (Netherlands) is within easy driving distance. Wrecks, octopus, flatfish and cuttlefish: the ideal environment to practice the natural light reading techniques taught in the course.
