We design and rig lighting for underwater film and stills — tanks, dive stages and open water. From the electrical plan to the last submerged fixture, we make the impossible shot safe, repeatable and beautiful.
I'm Ryan — Underwater Chief Lighting Technician and founder of Great White Spark Lighting. For over 18 years I've worked as a fully qualified electrician to the 18th Edition Wiring Regulations, combining technical expertise with a lifelong passion for the ocean.
Since qualifying as an HSE Commercial Diver in Oban, Scotland in 2014, I've built a career that bridges the gap between electrical engineering, underwater operations and film production. My work has taken me around the world — from diving with humpback whales in Tonga and exploring bioluminescent waters in Mexico, to earning my PADI Master Scuba Diver certification in Antigua.
I believe successful projects are built on clear communication, flexibility and trust.
Available for underwater film, commercial and stills work — tanks, dive stages and open-water location. Tell us about the shot and we'll come back with a plan.
A few details help us scope the rig, power and safety from the off.
Thanks — we've got the details and we'll be back in touch within 24 hours to talk through the rig.
