For those brave enough to photograph sharks in their natural environment, the visual rewards can often be quite stunning. Some photographers even make their entire reputation about underwater photography and their creative approaches. As part of the Shark Week 2025 movement we thought we’d show some of our favourite photographs of sharks for a little bit of inspiration. We certainly are not saying you should go out and shoot these yourselves without a lot of experience, but sharks are a huge part of our natural diversity and deserve this spot in the photography pantheon.





The common thread that units all of these wonderful photographs of sharks is that these particular ones all have exceptional composition. With very clearly defined centres of interest and lots of negative space to draw your eye to that centre of interest it’s a skill that makes for a very compelling photograph. If you would like to get some tips on your own compel compositions then don’t forget to check out our composition drills here.












It’s wonderful that the Discovery Channel has started this annual tradition of celebrating sharks and given us an opportunity to take a look at some of the inspirational images photographers can take with this wonderful subject. Hopefully this collection has given you a few things to think about.
