Kelvin Seet’s Photography

I went sightseeing with a bunch of really cheerful and funny people! They really had a lot of fun visiting all the various scenic places in Cape Town and I had even more fun taking photos of them!

I must say that most of my shots that will be shown here are taken to the best of my capabilities with a journalistic approach. As it was a bright sunny day in Cape Town that day, most of my “models” were wearing sunglasses so I couldn’t really capture the sparkle in their eyes! I won’t want them to be squinting too! It was really very glaring most of the time! I even got sunburnt!

As I didn’t carry my external flash with me and had not expected to go on the sightseeing trip, I didn’t charge my batteries and hence could not use my internal flash as I had to conserve power. Otherwise I believe that a lot of the issues that I have faced, like shadows and uneven exposures would had been resolved. But no matter what, everyone had fun taking the photos!

Here are the selected portrait photos from my shoot! Do hope that you’ll like them!

I was actually taking photos of Bernice when suddenly there was a lot of attention on a cute little girl playing with pigeons. Thinking that I could try shooting her and her expressions while having fun with her new found experience, I then fired my camera away in her direction.

A lot of the shots were taken but these are the only few that I find that are okay enough to be shown. The light from the sun was not shining on her features so her face was mostly in the shade, so it was a bit difficult to capture her nicely.

Thanks for viewing!
