Congratulations Gizela Conradie, you win a 50 image bundle for your joyful portrait. Speaking about the photograph, Gizela says: 'This image was taken in a studio in Cape Town in April. I have been looking to diversify my portfolio and find moments that tell stories. This particular model is naturally very introverted, and the power of the moment was a result of the interactions we had. I like to make my models feel comfortable and lead them to expose their most authentic and bare emotions.'
