Swimming Lesson Photos

Classes of beginner swimmers showed their underwater skills this week at Padiham Leisure Centre. Parents watched with amazement as each child was selected and photographed underwater.

The staff at the popular leisure centre assisted AquaShots by roping off a separate lane to conduct the photo-shoot. One by one the children swam in to the photographer's lane and showed off a series of poses from picking up a brick, swimming through a hoop, and swimming directly at the camera.

All the kids are said to have thoroughly enjoyed this unique experience and some even did things they didn't think they were able. "My son won't even open his eyes under the water" one dad said, "now he thinks he's the best at posing under the water". Brothers and sisters made the most of the fun experience.

AquaShots assures parents that only if the child is completely comfortable will they carry out the session. Each image taken is shown to both the subject and the parent and all images are avialable on a private password protected gallery to view. Then any images can be purchased directly online and parents can even have them on disc to print and use how ever they like.
