Spectacular but strange: Underwater wedding photo shoots.

Remember when people would get engaged and tell their friends in a low-key manner, perhaps a phone call or a newspaper announcement?

Yeah. That’s gone. Over. Never to be seen again simplicity from a time past.

It’s all about the announcement these days.

A cute photo with an engagement ring and a ‘she said YES!’ sign, an extra pair of baby-sized socks on a clothesline, blah blah etc.

Adorable. But it’s already getting old, so a new element needed to be added.

The ocean. Obviously.

Brides and grooms have turned to the deep blue sea to announce their engagements/pregnancies/weddings. Adam Opris, a Florida based photographer, has started a trend. Underwater photography sessions.

It’s probably not the most convenient idea for a photo shoot we’ve seen. For starters, you’d need the best waterproof mascara that money can buy. And it would be a bitch of a dry-cleaning bill. At least you don’t need to get your hair blow-dried…

The photos are pretty incredible. And surely the shoot is fun. Just… don’t forget your goggles.
