Photography Workshop
I had the privilege to attend the RE.INVENT workshop hosted by Dror Eyal and Andrea Carlyle at Forum Homini on Tuesday. It was quite an experience I would love to do it again. I learnt so much in one day, more than I expected. I just want to say a quick thank you to both the hosts the day was really a great opportunity for me, thank you for awarding me the bursary even if my name was drawn out of a hat I’m glad I was the lucky person that got to be there. I picked up so much, besides my nice collection of mossie bites I think I walked away a more “enlightened” photographer. The more...

We spent the day at the elephant sanctuary, two weekends ago, it was really such an amazing day you really get up close and personal with them and they are so fun to photograph. I also received my new Imac on monday and while i was going through some old pics i noticed flaws that i never picked up on my old screens before, especially with the puppy photos, i feel the need to touch them up a bit really i don’t like the fact that all the imperfections stick out so badly… anyway no time like the present.....

I’ve had so many interesting things to photograph lately so hopefully ill get a chance to post them soon, especially the Puppy shoot .. But for now these are the unedited “class pics” the best out of the couple I handed in. Let me know what you...
read moreReflectors and Diffusers
I started another course a while ago, and haven’t had a chance to upload any of the images I took. So here they are now. Our first class home work was to make our own reflector and diffuser and then, use it to take a couple of pictures. It was a bad week weather wise I only had a couple of hours sun, between the pouring rain, to complete the project. These are the photos that I took, and were picked to show in class. I haven’t edited them at all, it feels like cheating when the other people in my group don’t know how to use Photoshop so I’ve upload my unedited ones. Let me know what...

This past Saturday I spent the day with my Photography buddies at a studio open day. It was amazing, basically the guys there have started an Academy for photography, and they spoke a bit about what they do & plan to do. Then we got to play and well we played allot, it was so much fun, they had set up the studio lights and told us a bit about it all (wet our appetites) then we got to take as many photos as we wanted. They basically gave us the day to do what we wanted, we organized models and a make up artist Michelle Billson, this is her email shadowmagnet@gmail.com she did a fantastic...
