Fotógrafo Gergely Vas

—¿Es usted fotogénico(a)?

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

—¿Cómo empezó a trabajar en la industria de fotografía?

—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.

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

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

—¿Le gusta viajar?

—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.

—¿Qué le gusta más de su profesión?

—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

—¿Qué le gusta menos de su profesión?

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

—¿Cuál será el futuro de la fotografía?

—Uniqueness, creativity, motivation

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

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

—¿Cómo gestiona las críticas?

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

—¿Existe alguna tendencia en la fotografía?

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

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

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

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

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

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

—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.

—¿Cómo se forma para tomar las mejores imágenes?

—Talk with colleagues, putting up new experiences.

—¿Qué desea decir con sus fotografías?

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

—¿Qué le motiva a continuar tomando imágenes?

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

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

—I do not regret anything...

—¿Está complemente satisfecho de su trabajo?

—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.

—¿Hace amigos con facilidad?

—I'm an instant blender :)

—¿Dónde le gustaría vivir?

—Near the sea

—¿Hay vida después del matrimonio?

—I have not tried it yet ;)

—¿Le gustan los perros o los gatos?

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

—Si los extraterrestres llegaran a la Tierra y fuera la primera persona que encontraran, ¿qué les diría?

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

—Mañana voy a hacer...

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