WORKSHOPS #KyszneniezASUS

If you follow me on Facebook i Instagram you already know that before Christmas I had the great pleasure of going to Warsaw to take part in the amazing #KreatywzASUS workshops.

Fashion bloggers and those who, like me, are interested in photography and lifestyle were invited to participate in the workshop, all in order to explore the secrets of photography in a fantastic atmosphere.

It is well known that motivation is the basis of every success, that's why we started the workshop with sensational and very energetic lecture by mentor Marcin Mańkaafter which, charged with even more positive energy, we had time to exchange impressions with delicious catering from Przystanek Sushi.

When always cute Ania Zając - author of the blog fashionable.com.pl she told us 10 tricks for photographic makeup, we were able to get to know and test the latest ASUS phones - ZenFone with laser autofocus technology, which allows you to quickly focus quickly.

We could improve the make-up of a professional make-up artist and go to the practical part, i.e. very much creative workshops with outstanding young Polish photographer Jakub Kaźmierczyk, which has fantastic advertising photos for brands such as Starbucks, Pizza Hut and Burger King, and probably well-known Ania Piszczałka poses in front of his lens.

In pairs or small groups, we had the opportunity to work in a real photo studio with various models, in which we took turns playing the role, but most importantly - photograph, set and synchronize lighting, observing the effects of our work on computers connected to the camera on an ongoing basis, all under the watchful eye and with valuable tips from the photographer Jakub Kaźmierczyk.

At the beginning of the workshop, each of us received from the ASUS brand their own memory card, which, together with all the photos and memories taken at the workshop could take home with them, and a power bank so that we never run out of electricity during creative work, wherever we are.

After a fantastic photo session full of invaluable tips, we went to the computers, where Jakub showed us how, using Adobe Lightroom, you can correctly select and import photos, immediately stitching keywords in these files, as well as correctly call them in a digital darkroom, make a gentle retouch, and all this to get a beautiful, natural effect.

I've never had the opportunity to work with a camera under the supervision of such a professional before, in addition working with Jakub at the entire stage of creating the photo - from the idea, through working with the model, camera and lighting settings, to post-production was an absolutely fantastic lesson, from which I learned a lot.

I am very happy that I could take part in these workshops because ASUS equipment in combination with Jakub created ideal conditions for learningand I left the workshop full of willingness to learn and enriched by two new dreams.

The first is a new mobile computer, aimed at photo processing - while working on ASUS hardware and talking to experts, it turned out that the computer on which I am currently working on processing photos for the blog does not work very well, because its screen glows a bit blue, distorting the same colors, shadows, contrasts, so most of you see my photos differently than I create them, which is a real discomfort for me. It is through the photos, their colors and the mood that I express myself, and this perception may be slightly modified by you. I think I would easily choose a miracle from ASUS models ZenBook, quick for convenient processing of photos and capacious for their cataloging, all enclosed in a beautiful housing that would perfectly match my business character.

My second dream is another workshop with Jakub Kaźmierczyk, where I could explore the secrets of Adobe Lightroom software.

And at the exit, we were waiting for each of us charming chocolate Christmas trees from WISH.

Once again, I would like to thank you for organizing such fantastic workshops, I am sure that their effect will be visible in each of my subsequent photos.
