Jako Pooman. Norwood Model #1, Norwood (Jhb) March 2023
DPC Basic Course Portrait Workshop during March 2023. It was right after the basic course, so my fingers were still figuring the camera out. But this shot did not come out too bad, even though the aperture was not perfect for the portrait.

Moody Blue. Shot with my prime f/1.8 #NiftyFifty. Light source from the left with an external flash. we used a gold reflector on the left as well to bring in some warmth. The star of the show was the blue gel filter from Magmod. Camera: Canon 200D. ISO 400 | 50 mm | f/ 1,8 | 1/320 sec.

BMT College September 2023
Applied my new-found knowledge and shot a few portraits of our personnel. Still a couple of hiccups and fine-tuning and learning ahead. But a couple of the images came out looking not too bad, like this picture of Leandra.

DPC Studio Workshop at Studio012 in August 2023.
It was awesome working with Sascha, even though she probably ended up helping more with the photo-taking part.

Steampunk Workshop at Studio012 in July 2023. More shots from the day. The costumes and get-ups lend themselves to monochrome creations. Even missed a couple of the set-ups, but it was all worth it.
Luke reconned it was time for a bite.

Great portrait, Jako, especially the expression and toning. However, this portrait could be enhanced by slightly darkening the highlights and a bit of skin retouching.
