Fotógrafo Brita B

—¿En su opinión, cuáles son los elementos más importantes de una buena fotografía?

—Quality, good light, but first and foremost emotion!

—¿Le gusta viajar?

—Absolutely!

—¿Qué le gusta más de su profesión?

—It's never the same, it's always somewhat challenging, so I never get bored, but I mostly love the fact that I can see how I improve myself with every single photograph.

—¿Qué le gusta menos de su profesión?

—Sometimes it's the endless hours of photo editing.

—¿Cuál será el futuro de la fotografía?

—Too insane to imagine.

—¿Qué tiene de especial el género fotográfico en que trabaja?

—I love capturing people's real emotions. My photoshoots involve short walks, dancing, playfullness, movement etc. All of it makes it so much more real and special.

—¿Cómo gestiona las críticas?

—At frst I laugh, cry, hate all at the same time for a brief second and then I try to understand the critizism, is it a reliable source to change something, to learn from it and is it something I benefit from.
Because sometimes criticism comes from clients who simply want to haggle with price.

—¿Qué criterios debería tener en cuenta una persona a la hora de elegir a un fotógrafo?

—Portfolio is a big part of it, but make sure you like the person!Now matter how well a photographer offers you guidance or ideas during the photo shoot, if you don't feel comfortable with them, you won't get the desired result.

—¿Qué no está permitido de ningún modo cuando realiza una fotografía?

—Starting to shoot from minute 1. If I have new clients, I take 10 minutes to walk to the destination and simply chat. With those ten minutes they forget that I am a stranger and real peronalities and emotions start to surface.

—¿Qué detalles que normalmente no tenemos en cuenta puede un fotógrafo captar?

—I always notice bad posture or tension. I have my own little tricks to eliminate such things.

—¿Con quién le gustaría fotografiarse?

—Rankin, I'd be happy to just look at him shoot too.

—Jane Goodall, for me she reminds us that we are guests on this planet and that we should take care of life that we so eagerly want to destroy.

—¿Cómo definiría el éxito? ¿Cómo lo mide?

—Success = satisfaction
You measure it with your own happiness.

—¿Qué prefiere, gustar o sentirse respetado?

—Respected, simply likeness is so much easier to achieve.

—Cuando va de viaje, ¿qué lleva consigo y por qué?

—Camera and drone gear. I don't think I need to explain.

—¿Cómo se forma para tomar las mejores imágenes?

—Practice, practice, practice and at least once a year I try to take an interesting new class.
Also, working with other photographers and scrolling through good photography on Instagram is a good way to get the idea juices flowing.

—Editing tricks I know now.

—¿Si pudiera volver atrás en el tiempo, qué haría de forma diferente?

—I would not spend money on unnecessary gear.

—¿Qué piensa de la vida en otros planetas?

—Wish I could photograph it ;)

—¿Por quién no siente respeto?

—Peope who complain about things they could change while sitting down and doing nothing.

—¿Está complemente satisfecho de su trabajo?

—This happens very rarely. I'm very happy with my work pretty much all the time, but I feel like there is always space for improvement. I could be doing this for 60 years and I would still feel te same way.

—¿Cree en los roles tradicionales de hombres y mujeres?

—What's traditional? What does it mean? Traditions are different all over the world, they mostly come into our lives trhough media, through other people or from a different timeframe. If people and pretty much everything else evolve with time, why shouldn't the roles for men and women. So no, I do not believe in them in a way that makes the media a clickmagnet nowadays. I trust in nature and I believe men and women are different, they should celebrate it, but their right to do things have to be equal!

If you mess it up, do it again.
Have a back up plan.
