About Chuck:
Charles “Chuck” Nicklin was the owner of San Diego’s Dive Locker, a retail dive business, for 42 years. He had a career as an underwater cinematographer, filming many features and documentaries for Hollywood.

Chuck began free diving in 1947 and SCUBA diving in 1953. Underwater videographers like Howard Hall and Marty Snyderman both worked at Chuck’s dive shop. Bob Talbot received encouragement as a teenaged videographer from him. Chuck’s son, Flip Nicklin has made a name for himself as an underwater photographer and videographer for National Geographic for the past 20 years.

Chuck now travels with his wife Roz all over the world touring, diving and shooting some of the most exotic and beautiful above water and underwater habitats around the globe. His relationship with Light & Motion has been enhanced greatly with our advances and Chuck’s interest in Underwater HD video. To find more information on their trips go to www.chucknicklin.com
