Marissa Blake is an underwater photographer, conservationist, and ocean communicator based on Oʻahu. On a single breath or a tank of air, she seeks out both the ocean’s quiet moments and its thrilling, lesser-seen encounters, then brings them back to share. Through her images, films, and stories, she supports marine conservation community and invites people to experience the ocean up close.

Today, Marissa is growing her work in marine conservation and science communication, helping turn ocean science into stories people feel, remember, and share. She’s always looking to connect with conservation organizations, ocean-minded brands, and fellow storytellers who believe creativity is one of our most powerful tools for protecting the sea.

If you’re working to protect the ocean and want to tell that story in a new way, I’d love to hear from you. Together, we can help more people see what’s worth protecting. Let’s help the world fall in love with the ocean. 🩵
