In 2023, we collaborated with Coral Gardeners on the island of Moorea, French Polynesia, to document their mission of restoring the ocean’s most vital ecosystems. Surrounded by turquoise lagoons and vibrant reef life, we captured the energy, dedication, and innovation driving their work. The shoot not only highlighted the beauty of the reefs and the urgency of protecting them, but also focused on the Coral Gardeners media team in action, showing how they work, create, and share stories that inspire a global movement.
