Description A test shoot for an upcoming project with amazing freediver and model "Jodie". This girl can hold her breath for an amazing 4 1/2 minutes and that number is steadily increasing as she continues her tight training regimen.
Unfortunately the water was far too cold to contemplate ditching the wetsuit, next test shoot it'll be warmer.
Thanks to Ron and Ant for assisting.

Impressive diver and beautiful lady all in one. Compliments to this lady and to you, the photographer and anyone involved. Curious about further test shoots... It's also really interesting to read about depth, dive time and stuff like that... A lot of people don't realize what it takes.

Keep 'em coming! Like it!

Thank you for the lovely comments

Jodie is now a level 2 freedive instructor and is training under the very talented Mike Wells (an Australian freedive Icon).
She has broken the 50m mark as well as the 5 min static breathhold.

We currently have some much bigger stuff planned that will test both of us to our limits.

Her boyfriend can hold his breath for 7min 58 seconds. He's a very advanced freediver.

Sorry I don't have an underwater video camera, but if the opportunity ever comes up I'll give it a shot.
