Fotógrafo Siemenjov Galdes

—¿Es usted fotogénico(a)?

—Only when I am not trying to be :)

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

—By pure coincidence and being in the right place at the right time. My first wedding was in 2012 and the rest as they say is history.

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

—Some old school photographers would say technique, composition, verticles etc. I think all the mentioned techniques are important however the moment and the framing for me are key.

—¿Le gusta viajar?

—I can't get enough of it ;)

—¿Qué le gusta más de su profesión?

—Travelling, meeting new people and being able to tell a story through pictures.

—¿Qué le gusta menos de su profesión?

—To be honest I never thought much about this. In all fairness I can't think of anything else except the long hours.

—¿Cuál será el futuro de la fotografía?

—Wedding photography is increasingly becoming more expressive and photographers around the world have pushed the bounderies and the art to scary new heights. I cannot say, though I am really curious to find out.

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

—Emotions! Not all weddings have it, but the ones who do, make it special beyond words.

—¿Cómo gestiona las críticas?

—There is always something new to learn and good solid constructive criticism helps us become better and challange our routines. I am always eager to get feedback and I hope I can keep improving upon it.

—¿Existe alguna tendencia en la fotografía?

—ohhh yes! I think you see changing trends mostly depending on the country and continent.

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

—I can answer this because I myself was a groom not long ago. I looked for a photographer who cares, someone who knows documentary photography and someone that is not afraid to get the best out of us on the wedding day. We actually enjoyed our day more thanks to the photographer we chose! I knew exactly what he would deliver before I even booked him.

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

—Forget your phone, e-mails, messages and all distractions. Most importantly avoid going un-prepared.
