✦Welcome to the 1 Hotel Members underwater fine art experience
A Personal Note from Aldara
It’s a pleasure to have you join me for this exclusive collaboration with 1 Hotels — a rare opportunity to step into the world of underwater fine art photography.
In my signature sessions, I typically spend several hours with each subject, sculpting imagery in and around water. For this 1 Hotel Members experience, we’ll distill that process into 10 focused minutes per member — and with a little preparation, that’s all we’ll need to create something truly special.
✧ What to Bring & Wear: Bring one carefully chosen outfit — something that feels like an extension of you: elegant, expressive, and fluid.
✧ What to Expect: This is a calm, intuitive shoot. You’ll be gently guided through poses while holding your breath underwater.
✧ After the Experience: Within a few weeks, you’ll receive a private digital gallery, live for two weeks, to review your images.
From this gallery, you’ll select your favorites for professional refinement. What you see first are raw, unedited photographs — the foundation of your final artwork. Only fully edited, chosen images are released, ensuring each piece is elevated to its fullest expression.
✧ Exquisite Images: Bespoke Formats Following your selection, you may acquire your images as:

- Women: Flowing dresses in solid tones or sequins photograph beautifully underwater.
- Men: Linen, cotton, or denim with a soft, unstructured shirt works wonderfully.
- Couples / Families: Coordinated tones create harmony and elevate the final composition.
- Optional: A strapless swimsuit or bikini (for women) for styling with exclusive fabrics I will provide.
✧ What to Expect: This is a calm, intuitive shoot. You’ll be gently guided through poses while holding your breath underwater.
- Keep your face relaxed and natural; avoid puffed cheeks or tight expressions.
- Eyes may be open or closed — both create striking imagery.
- Trust the water, the process, and yourself.
