Press from OceanLines

This is a belated post featuring a belated article, but it's still fun to share. We have enjoyed working with OceanLines writers for a couple of photoshoots to accompany their articles, like this one about the Nordstar31. But enough about that...as if we didn't publicize our wedding enough last summer...

Announcing PhotoBoat and Charleston Race Week 2010

We're pleased to announce that we'll be working with the South Carolina Maritime Foundation as a sponsor of Charleston Race Week 2010. We'll be taking great action shots of every boat and displaying them on our terminals and our big screen at the party every night. Charleston Race Week is a growing event and we're thrilled to be a part of it. For more information, visit www.charlestonraceweek.com.

PhotoBoat is a DryCASE dealer

No, we don't normally sell anything except our own photos, but we think the DryCASE product is so great that we've become a dealer. The case works with a vacuum seal- you actually suck the air out of it after it's sealed. The result: not as clumsy as other cases. The other quality that sets DryCASE apart from the rest: it has a headphone valve and still maintains its seal.

We'll have a few cases with us at events this coming season- check them out, buy them on site, or use the code Photo Boat at checkout for 10% off.

PhotoBoat's Professional Marine Photographers provide regatta and boating lifestyle photography, with specialties in commercial advertising photography, editorial photography, private yacht assignments and on-the-water event photography. Their online galleries include personal event photos, stock power and sailboat images, and marine art. They are based in Connecticut and regularly travel to Newport, Annapolis, Miami, Key West, Boston, New York, New Jersey, and other sailing hotspots.

Allen and Daniela started PhotoBoat in 2005 and have spent every day since building PhotoBoat from the ground up. Their growth has been tremendous. Their "crazy" style- harnessed into a small RIB and photographing and driving at the same time- got them noticed quickly, and their oustanding photos and professionalism have done the talking ever since.

Today the brand is known across the United States sailing community and beyond. With thousands of hours on the water photographing, they use their experience and creativity to go beyond the usual.

With as many hours logged at sea and also in front of the chalkboard, teaching sailing, their love for the sport comes out in their work, and their skills behind the "wheel" have been noticed across the country. Their "never-satisfied" attitude has made waves in the marine photography field.

Now Allen and Daniela shoot from a variety of platforms, depending on the gig and the client, but they still utilize the "dinghy" extensively to get the close-up shots that nobody else can without disturbing the race course.

Allen and Daniela both have 50 Ton Master USCG Captains licenses. When they are not on their way to or from an event or assignment in South Carolina, Maryland, Maine, or beyond, they live in Connecticut in the summer and Florida in the winter.
