I thought taking portraits is as easy as clicking that button of the camera or hitting that circular tool in our digital camera. But after attending two sessions of
Huawei's "
Behind Portrait Photography" Workshop, I learned a lot - more than a lot! Sorry for this exaggeration but Ms. Sarah Black and Sir Veejay Villafranca really shared amazing views and suggestions during those activities. One of the most important notes in getting amazing portrait shot is the tool - the kind of Camera and this time, I found it with Huawei's latest smartphone engineered with Leica, the
Huawei P10.

Huawei partners with Cebu Bloggers Society for a Portrait Photography Workshop |
On June 1, a group of Cebu Media and Bloggers gathered in Chateau De Busay for a preview on what would this workshop looks like with the Country's Top Fashion Photographer, Ms. Sarah Black. “
The most iconic portraits are defined by outstanding lighting and clarity of details. Working as a lifestyle photographer for many years now, I always place a premium on how these two elements are reflected in every shot I make, and the Huawei P10 makes this very convenient. They instantly give dramatic touches to every photo, revealing interesting stories or realities of every subject that are rarely captured even through words,” Sara Black shares.
Now, here are some of the amazing portrait shots that our friends from
Cebu Bloggers Society took during the June 1 workshop.
