Fotograf Alin Panaite

—Jak jste se dostali do fotografického průmyslu?

—After working for some time in fashion photography and in the studio, the step to wedding photography was very natural. I've always enjoyed working with people, and being together with them on a special day gives what I need for capturing great shots.

—Jaké jsou podle vás nedůležitější součásti dobré fotografie?

—Light, composition, but especially feeling. A good photo has to make you laugh, to make you cry, to make you shiver, even hate it...but it can not leave you without reaction.

—Cestujete rádi?

—yesss!

—Co máte nejredši na vaší profesi?

—You meet great people, you learn many things from them, you can watch them smile or cry when you show them the photos you've made.

—Co se vám líbí nejméně na vaší profesi?

—The price of cameras :)))

—Jaká je budoucnost focení?

—A bright one. The competition is going to be even higher, and competition means progress. In order to stay ahead, you have to constantly learn and reinvent yourself.

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

—The unique nature of the moment. A mixture of happiness, stress, laughing and tears.

—Jak zvládáte kritiku?

—Very well. If it's well argummented, you can learn o lot from criticism.

—Jsou nějaké trendy v oblasti focení?

—Unfortunately, there is a tendency towards landscape photography, where the bride and groom have a secondary role. Wedding means emotion, from my point of view...

—Kdo vás inspiruje ve vašem životě a proč?

—I am inspired by many people I meet every day, from my students to my friends. I don't think you have to look for inspiration only from one or two people whom you consider to be the best in their domain, but rather find inspiration everywhere around you

—Jak byste definovali úspěch? Jak ho měříte?

—Success is doing something you love and the people around you can see that.

—Byli byste raději oblíbení nebo respektovaní?

—Respected.

—Jaká je největší chyba, kterou jste kdy v práci udělali?

—Co byste rádi řekli skrze vaše fotografie?

—That life is beautiful, that you can find beauty everywhere around you. There are a million reasons to enjoy life and photography can show at least a part of these.

—Co vás motivuje v dalším focení?

—There are still so many things that I can show, as I said , there are a million reasons to enjoy life and you can never say that you've captured them all in your photos.
