Its aim is to help all types of businesses and industries to convey their message with high-definition photos of their products, as well as professionally designed advertising material. Jaco€™s creative and stimulating images play a dynamic role in the success of his clients€™ businesses. For more than *5 years, Jaco has been committed to capturing images with a sense of honesty and creativity. Why have Jaco specialised in product photography Jaco€™s first interest in macro photography began in the early ***0€™s, and really took off in ***2, when he bought his €King Bellows€ macro photography system for his SLR camera. He was fascinated by the detail this system brought, which led to his interest in microscope photography. He mounted his SLR camera on large microscopes to capture images which were invisible to the naked eye. These microscopes had sophisticated light source systems, like light temperature features and colour correction filters. The importance of lighting objects in microscope photography forced him to master this art of using lights effectively, which fuelled his interest in still-life photography. Still-life photography is a fascinating genre which requires high professionalism from an artist, and this challenge gave Jaco more valuable experience. He used a large variety of light sources, like candle-light, moon light and light streaming, to give emotion, as well as the right mood and atmosphere to still-life images. Ansel Adams once said: €You don€™t take a photograph, you make it.€ Jaco whole photography philosophy is based on this principle. How do Jaco capture the €˜energy€™ of inanimate objects Jaco is able to create a whole range of effects, depending on the light and light techniques required. A perfect sense of light and composition will give the illusion of a three-dimensional form, add mood, give context, provide interest, and ultimately, create a dynamic still-life picture. His photographs are emotions, captured by light, and result in the products coming to life. After all these years, he is still growing and looking for ways to inject emotion into inanimate objects. Having being asked which of his photographs are his favourite, he answered: €The one I€™m going to take tomorrow.€
