Underwater
A celebration and collaboration between Effie Benjamin and Lo Frentz, two underwater film photographers who met in 2021 and bonded over a shared love of all things ocean and film.
Our experience as women divers, film photographers, and musicians gives us a unique perspective which translates into dreamy visuals, tight shots, and effective musical support.

Love in the Time of Corona
After a year of postponement due to an ongoing pandemic, the endlessly creative Rose and Akiva decided to get married in their backyard in the presence of a few closed friends and loved ones joining in over Zoom. In addition to photography, I shot this Super 8mm video footage on my grandfather’s camera.
