Fotograf Marina Rygalina

—Za prvé a především – koho můžete jmenovat jako nejlepšího fotografa ve vašem městě? :)

—I don't know my direct competition, since I am concentrating on my own professional development and growth

—Jste fotogeničtí?

—I usually look good on pictures if I am not caught off guard:)

—Jak jste se dostali do fotografického průmyslu?

—I was starting from Sensual Private Sessions, then was drawn into Beauty and Fashion Fields. At some point I was taking part in the shoots for the Wedding Dresses. I was fascinated by the beauty of the dresses, and realised that it is mainly the fairytale effect that I like, and it started showing in my pictures.

—Jaké jsou podle vás nedůležitější součásti dobré fotografie?

—Emotions, composition, colour palette, light, decor elements

—Cestujete rádi?

—Yes, totally exciting. Now I live in a smaller town in the mountains and although it is great as a home, it makes me want to get out once in a while for a search of an adventure and beauty.

—Co máte nejredši na vaší profesi?

—Creating Beauty. I see it everywhere and in almost everything and I like to show it through the lens...
I want other people to see it the way I see it.

—Co se vám líbí nejméně na vaší profesi?

—It takes me some time before I can sit on a computer and go through pictures. I can not do it right away after the shoot. I tend to be very excited after the event and am liking everything, without criticism, it is hard to make a selection of the best pictures. But if I come back to them in a week, I tend to cool down with my emotions and I can look at my work objectively already.

—Jaká je budoucnost focení?

—Drone operated maybe????:)))

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

—Existuje něco, co byste si byli raději nekoupili z vašich pomůcek, které vlastníte? A proč?

—I was hesitant about which lens to get. I choose 50mm 1,4 lens, which is amazing for portraits, but you have to constantly move with it since it is not a zoom. Not sure if I would change it, but I would love to get an extra zoom lens.
Some studio lights were not really useful since I prefer to work on the go.

—Jak se vzděláváte, abyste pořidili lepší fotografie?

—I observe what I like and do everything to figure out how was it done.I also like attending workshops of my favourite photographers cause you tend to see their direct approach and means of how they achieved it.
