Fotograf Gergely Vas

—Jste fotogeničtí?

—In 99% of the cases I am at the other end of the camera, so it's hard to say :)

—Jak jste se dostali do fotografického průmyslu?

—I was the victim of a friend's request, after which I kept being passed around and the circle became wider and wider. I have a colourful personality though, besides wedding photography I like to venture into the more artistic side of my profession.

—Jaké jsou podle vás nedůležitější součásti dobré fotografie?

—The right subject(s), according history and to capture the unique moment.

—Cestujete rádi?

—I do! I think I have a "travel-gene" somewhere in me, I pass by a dozen places throughout the year, be it for work or holiday purpouses.
When it concerns work, it is usually Spain, Malta and Cyprus that are top of the list, but I hope this range will widen further.

—Co máte nejredši na vaší profesi?

—At weddings, it is to allow the couples to relive their most important, most beautiful memories, getting them into fun situations which they are very gratful for – I like it when they thank me for my work and I can see the confirmation in their eyes that I have performed at least at a 100%.
I also like my clients' positive feedback on my ideas and their adherence towards me

—Co se vám líbí nejméně na vaší profesi?

—That there is sometimes not enough time for a project :(

—Jaká je budoucnost focení?

—Uniqueness, creativity, motivation

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

—A fantastic location (which is given at many a mediterranean country), the couples' personal attitude/style and lots&lots of creative ideas!

—Jak zvládáte kritiku?

—Pretty well! If it's constructive criticism and useful when thought through, then I will definitely integrate it into my daily work.

—Jsou nějaké trendy v oblasti focení?

—Thankfully – and at the same time, unfortunately – yes.

—Jaké by měl mít zákazník kritérium při výběru fotografa?

—- the pictures and their style
- the personality of the photographer (to meet in person in advance is paramount!)
- flexibility
- finally, the price/performance

—Co není dovoleno při focení?

—I have not yet encountered a situation like this – perhaps I am lucky? :)

—Jakých detailů, které obvykle projdou bez povšimnutí, si může fotograf všimnout?

—In this line of work we often have to look ahead in certain situations, we need to notice an important moment before it actually happens. Coherent events, the outburst or even withholding of emotions, a look – overall multiple facets that merge into one single scene.

—Jak se vzděláváte, abyste pořidili lepší fotografie?

—Talk with colleagues, putting up new experiences.

—Co byste rádi řekli skrze vaše fotografie?

—Share moments, emotions, and – if it doesn't concern weddings,- depict my own emotions and gorgeous landscapes

—Co vás motivuje v dalším focení?

—I'd like to visit as many places as possible, create extraordinary material to still my hunger for perfection

—Pokud byste se mohli vrátit v čase, co byste udělali jinak?

—I do not regret anything...

—Kdy jste zcela spokojeni s vaší prací?

—When I see that an album receives a bright smile even at the second viewing.
Non-wedding relatedly: a direct second order, an honest compliment.

—Získáváte snadno nové přátele?

—I'm an instant blender :)

—Kde byste rádi žili?

—Near the sea

—Existuje život po svatbě?

—I have not tried it yet ;)

—Máte rádi psy a kočky?

—Dogs are not just with you out of interest, I respect and love them more, but I am ok with cats too.

—Kdyby přišli na naši planetu mimozemšťané a vy byste byli první osobou, se kterou se potkají, co byste jim řekli?

—Hi, would you like to grab a beer? :D

—Zítra půjdu a udělám...

—...nothing, just sleep long and deep for a change:)
