Fotograf Anne Ling

—Jak jste se dostali do fotografického průmyslu?

—My way in photography started 10 years ago with editorial and fashion. But I've always admired real people and real emotions much more. So that's how I've started documenting weddings and other important life moments in different countries.

—Cestujete rádi?

—I'm a passionate traveller. I've already been to 39 countries and I'm really happy that my work is international.

—Co je výjimečného na žánru fotografií, na který se specializujete?

—Wedding photography combines documentary and fine art photography. So being a professional in both is crucial.

—Co ovlivňuje hodnotu fotografie? Jaké jsou její prvky?

—Time influences the value of a photo the most. Photos are like good wine – the older the better. While capturing a wedding I always keep in mind that this photos will keep the memories through the years.

—Máte nějaké profesní tabu?

—I never photograph people in embarrassing situation or angle.

—Čí práce vás ovlivnila nejvíce jako fotografa?

—I've studied fine arts since childhood. So all the great painters, photographers, film directors influenced me a lot.

—Co byste rádi řekli skrze vaše fotografie?

—That it is much more important to collect feelings not things. Nothing will be more valuable for you through the years than a teardrop on your mother's cheek or a sincere hug of your best friend or a picture of you two standing on the edge of the earth holding hands and looking to each other's eyes.

—Co vás motivuje v dalším focení?

—My clients, of course. When I send them their photos and receive an answer: "We are totally in love with our photos! Thank you so much, Anne!!!"
In such moments I feel absolutely happy!
