My name is Jessica Alexanderson but my friends call me Scuba Jess. I started diving in the summer of 2014 and fell in love with the underwater world. I've always been a huge Star Trek fan so every dive feels like I'm beaming down on an away mission to seek out new life and civilizations! I feel so lucky to live close to a variety of amazing dive spots here in the Seattle area.
Please enjoy some of my favorite underwater life forms! Photos shot with the Nikon D7200 with the DS51 strobes.
