Welcome

Emil is an experienced location and studio photographer.
Here is what he has to say:
"I use high – end digital DSLR equipment (in analogue terminology this equates to professional 35mm SLR equipment, viz. Nikon F5 / F6 and Nikkor lenses - so clients are assured of high quality images), edit images using Photoshop CS4 and process these edited images at professional labs using Fuji Frontier machines.
I am a perfectionist and refuse to compromise on quality. Mediocrity has no place in what I do.
Of course my client always comes first, so my continued resolve is to provide the client with complete peace of mind and satisfaction with the final product.
I interact very well with clients and am sensitive to the needs of both the client and the material I work with.
Whilst working with the model / bride / child, I ensure that the desired body language and facial expressions are captured. A technically good portrait with the wrong body language / facial expression does not qualify as a photograph at all! It is merely a snapshot.
I shoot on location, but delight in working in the controlled lighting environment of a photographic studio as well.
I travel extensively throughout the Republic, as well as to its neighbouring countries."
