My name is Sivuyisiwe Guzana and I have been a freelance photographer for the past 6years, beginning as an event photographer while pursuing my B Tech in Photography. As my true passion lies in taking photos of people, I transitioned into fashion photography once I had completed my degree. I’ve spent most of the past 3 years shooting events, as well as working as a salesperson in a camera shop (Photoquip), assisted photographers and internships in companies (Media 24 and KontentPark.) I am currently majoring in cinematography and directing at SAE Institute and will receive my degree at the end of this year (2020). While I have a comprehensive photography background, my emphasis is on storytelling and creativity. I feel that your company places prominence in similar areas and having the privilege of serving as an intern with you will give me that further exposure I need to advance my career. Upon graduating, I hope to work for a company that specialises in digital content, Set up own lighting and audio recording and operate high-end video cameras and equipment. With the right opportunities and experience to cutting edge projects, I believe I can achieve this goal. I hope to with your firm’s help. As for my technical skills, I am proficient with a wide array of professional cameras, lighting gear, and lenses. I have taken several courses in photo editing and I am an Adobe Photoshop expert and Final Cut Pro. I have recently been developing my video shooting and editing skills as well. On a personal level, I am a people person with a knack for getting smiles and making clients happy. I am reliable and capable in fast-paced environments, and I always deliver my results on time. When it comes to photo editing, I am highly organised and I pride myself on being extremely attentive to detail, with an eye for presentation.
