Zena Holloway

Zena Holloway was born in Bahrain (1973) a scuba diving expert turned self taught underwater photographer and director. Zenas work is impressive having worked for major fashion and advertising companies. She has also worked on promotional videos for Kylie Monogue.


Her work is powerful and fantasy like, she creates dramatic images that create a sense of surrealism. Being such a big name and having access to the type of large-scale equipment her work and dedication is admirable. I recently experimented with underwater photography and failed miserably at achieving anything worthy of presenting! Even taking a decent photograph on land can be challenging. To attempt that whilst holding your breathe and keeping yourself still without the aide of your arms is very difficult! although i didn't have a scuba suit on so i think Zena has a big advantage there.
