Gisele Lubsen Underwater Photography

Los Angeles underwater photographer Gisele A. Lubsen celebrates male and female archetypes in her brand of visual narrative. “My intent is to reveal heroism and moving beauty captured within a surrealistic water performance.”

The beauty of Gisele’s work is captured as her mythological muse descends beneath the surface into a new world where beauty is suspended within a sea of creative potential. Beauty transcends, fabric trails and swirls, each movement captured for another verse in Gisele’s lyrical poetry.


“There is something magical taking place, as the photography becomes an intimate poem shared between the models and myself under water. Working underwater is fascinating, as the shared experience takes over, is emotional, and connects all of us in a really positive way. Somehow this exchange radiates out of the final piece,” Gisele passionately shares.


Gisele Lubsen’s photographic style might be described as a mythological theatre play shared between Aphrodite and Apollo. Appropriate, as Gisele, originally from Switzerland, spends much of her time in Greece every year.

Greek Mythology is inherent within Gisele’s work. Similar to ancient Greek mankind, Gisele’s photography is an attempt to explain metaphysical phenomena and anxiety associated with the human condition when within the confines of water.


“My photography is an underwater story that renders the decisive moment to overcome our fears and become courageous.” Gisele Lubsen continues to exhibit her photography around the world while providing her photographic services to clients looking for a one-of-a-kind aquatic experience.
