What is Dive Productions?
What is Dive Productions? And What Do we Do?
We have worked in many arenas - but Dive Productions focuses on shooting with women doing what they choose, and going where they want. For themselves, with others, sometimes only privately, and sometimes for fame and fortune.
We have no limits. But we try to be moral and ethical, free and responsible. Aware of the conflicts.
Women are put on pedestals for their beauty. They shouldn't be. But they should seek to push their boundaries in all directions. When they want to look beautiful or sexy, it should be for themselves, or for what they want for themselves - not simply because Society might put them on that pedestal.
Some women just want to see what they might look like, dressed, made-up, styled. And others want to see what they look like in their throes of ecstasy. Others see the responses of Society to the way they look, or their sexuality and want to benefit financially for it.
The question of Dive Production is: "Why?" "What are you looking for?" "Why this way?"
Because we ask these questions, we encourage both the questions, in them, and the answers from them. That is a journey of Intimacy - with themselves. It is a journey of Trust - with us. Without judgement. Just a seeking that they consider what they are doing, why they are doing it and whether it is for themselves or someone else - and whether they can live with that.
Living with regret is eternal. For everyone.
How Far is Too Much?
How Far Is Too Much? How Far Can We Go?
We have a responsibility to Society and to ourselves. Our market, or audience, is the Society that seeks us or that we seek. The Society at-large, does not seek us, but may stumble upon us.
When we shoot, we shoot for ourselves. There are few limits, for us. As we seek an audience, there are more and more limits, and we have to always be aware of what we impose on those who have no thought or desire to sit in audience to us, to be captive to our private desires, impulses and whims.
This is not a statement of nudity, beauty, sexuality, exhibitionism, or pride - it is a statement of balance. What do we do, and where do we go, to explore our own boundaries - and where do we stop?
If we enjoyed climbing mountains, or swimming in open seas - we should challenge ourselves and do so - but we should also be prepared, and we should not expect someone else to save us from our personal decisions. Unless we have an audience that chooses to voyeuristically watch us challenge the elements, strip to our nakedness, or go further - we cannot expect Society to "save us." Nor should they constrain us.
Beauty Without Fear
Exhibition. Voyeurism. Defiance. Acceptance. Discovery. Self. Society.
These are all areas which we find in conflict, but should not be. Personal freedom and acceptance, should be aware and considerate of Society, but not suppressed by Society.
The bodies of women, have always been in this conflict - theirs, or belonging to the Society to which they are a part, and want to be a part of.
