At the age of 19 acquired his open water license and quickly advanced to divemaster and instructor. Shahar worked as a divemaster and instructor in various countries including Australia, Thailand, Egypt and Israel . While instructing in Eilat he met Linda and they have been together ever since.

Shahar's first camera was given to him at the age of 13 by his grandfather. This hobby although expensive was developed over the years with the help of his parents.

It was only natural that he would take underwater photography as a hobby. Linda in turn directed him by giving pointers, tips and harsh criticism when it was needed. Linda introduced Shahar to Ziggy Livnat. Ziggy an accomplished photographer helped in numerous ways from tips, teaching and even lending a Nikonos IV.
