Tips and Tricks for<br />
PHOTOMAN<br />
Photographer and<br />
graphic designer<br />
Ben Foertsch on<br />
making the most of<br />
photomanipulation<br />
Beginnings<br />
I started out using <strong>Photoshop</strong> back<br />
in 2006 during the year I spent living<br />
in New Zealand for high school. Back<br />
then I’d just started photographing and<br />
learnt how to use <strong>Photoshop</strong> (self-taught)<br />
to improve my (amateur) photography.<br />
Now I do freelancing as a photographer<br />
for various local businesses and business<br />
portraiture for private clients.<br />
Style<br />
I keep it minimalistic and straightforward.<br />
After years of using <strong>Photoshop</strong>, I realised<br />
the artworks that stand out are the ones<br />
that are so simple and straightforward<br />
that you can easily recognise them<br />
amongst the ocean of artworks.<br />
What do I wish I could do in<br />
<strong>Photoshop</strong>?<br />
Convert **** into gold? Well, there’s so<br />
much you can do, I just don’t have the<br />
IMAGES<br />
BRAND PICTURE<br />

what you eat”<br />
BOXED<br />
THINKING<br />
» (FAR LEFT) They<br />
always say “think<br />
outside the box”.<br />
I took this “problem”<br />
and visualised it<br />
RESIZED KEY<br />
» (TOP RIGHT) Losing<br />
your keys makes<br />
quite an impact. It<br />
was very difficult<br />
combining huge<br />
objects with really<br />
small ones!<br />
PICK IT<br />
» (MIDDLE RIGHT) If<br />
you had all the<br />
money in the world,<br />
you could pick<br />
anything you liked<br />
BITTERSWEET<br />
» (RIGHT) Love and<br />
affection, what a<br />
bittersweet feeling.<br />
