The Architectural Abstract Series: Lightscapes (3-Part PDF Collection)
Price: £12 (Includes all 3 Guides)
These guides are the perfect companion to Janina’s incredibly successful workshop series. This collection takes you on a journey from the clarity of daylight, into the energy of the night, and finally into the digital darkroom where you leave reality behind entirely.
Whether you are looking to master in-camera multiple exposure or learn how to build fantasy architecture in post-production, these three guides provide the complete roadmap.
Part 1: Lightscapes
Architectural Multiple Exposure in the Daytime
Discover how to turn rigid buildings into fluid and expressive art using nothing but natural light and camera movement. Janina strips away the complexity of Multiple Exposure and offers practical and repeatable techniques you can use on your next photo walk.
The 180-Degree Flip: How to create perfect symmetry or floating cities by inverting your frame.
Adding Texture: Learn to use pavement, sand, or water as an artistic overlay to soften brutalist concrete.
In The Round: A guide to moving physically around circular structures like bandstands to layer perspectives.
Crosshatching: The secret to creating pencil sketch effects using high shutter speeds and rapid movement.
Part 2: After Dark
Architectural Multiple Exposure at Night
When the sun goes down the rules change. This guide teaches you how to embrace low light, high contrast, and neon energy without fear.
No Filters Needed: Why you can ditch the ND filters at night and use darkness to create cleaner and sharper abstract lines.
The Bokeh Second Layer: A masterclass in defocusing. Learn how to turn streetlights and signage into soft orbs that sit beautifully over sharp architecture.
Zoom and Motion: How to combine zooming in with camera movement to capture the dynamic flow of trams and traffic.
Part 3: Dreambuilt
Using Post Processing to Create Otherworldly Architecture
In this final installment Janina opens the door to her digital darkroom. This is not about fixing mistakes. It is about building worlds that do not exist.
Making One from Scratch: Learn how to create in-camera style multiple exposures entirely in Photoshop which is perfect if your camera does not support blend modes.
Layering Logic: A crash course in using Fill rather than Opacity and Blend Modes to weave textures and skies seamlessly into your work.
The Narrative Elements: How to add birds, shadow buildings, and white paint layers to turn a standard photo into a story.
A Creative Recipe: Follow a simple 7-step workflow to build expressive images without getting bogged down in technical perfection.
This is a downloadable PDF, which means you can keep this after the live series has finished.
