#SharksonRED with Keoni Bowthorpe (keonishoots)

How do you photograph this much power without creating a villain? That question became my North Star while serving as Director of Photography (underwater) on netflix’s Emmy-nominated The Shark Whisperer.

In Hawaiʻi, sharks are woven into the history, culture, and waters that shaped me into who I am today. That perspective guides every frame I capture in the deep.

Working alongside director JP Styles (jpstilesjp) and my shark ohana (oceanramsey) & Juan Oliphant (juansharks), who I consider the finest shark cinematographer in the world, I came to realize the goal was never a perfect shot. It was an honest one.

I began to wonder if enough moments of truth could challenge a lifetime of conditioned fear. Could we help people see these remarkable animals in a new light?

When time is short, visibility disappears, and shark interactions become intense, trusting my gear matters. I’m proud to have trusted RED to help tell this deeply personal story.
