—Mis sulle sinu töö juures kõige rohkem meeldib?

—In few hours the photographer needs to capture the story of love between the bride and groom, connection to their friends, and nurture of their parents.

—Ennekõike - keda sa nimetaksid parimaks fotograafiks oma linnas? :)

—The best photographer doesn't exist, only styles! Today there are so many photographers, and each one has their own style. As long as you work hard to constantly grow and push yourself then you will be happy, your clients will be happy and you will become a great photographer.

—Millised peaksid fotograafi valides olema kliendi kriteeriumid?

—Kuidas sa sattusid fotograafiamaailma?

—You could say that it was hidden away inside me for a long time. Without realising I have always had a camera to hand since I was little. Love my dads Canon 650 EOS and always used to take it off his hands. Never thought that it would turn out to be something that I loved doing.

—Kas sa oled fotogeenne?

—To be honest, no not really. That is why I hide behind the camera :P

—Mis on sinu arvates hea foto kõige olulisead komponendid?

—Kas sulle meeldib reisida?

—I love new and unknown territories, this make you push your skills and ideas to the limits and keeps you improving. I have several trips lined up this year and cant wait to work somewhere new. And if it is for vacactional purpose, then without a doubt, but I can assure you that my camera will never leave my side.

—Mis sulle sinu töö juures kõige rohkem meeldib?

—The reaction when I hand my work in and the happiness it brings. I will love photography no matter what, and will always love it no matter what people say about my work. All photographers want to exceed their expectations, improve, update themselves, master new techniques, and we are very perfectionist when it comes down to our own work, so it is a fantastic feeling when others congratulate you on your efforts.

—Mis sulle sinu töö juures kõige vähem meeldib?

—Nothing, I came from a financial work environment with a stressful background to something that I dreamt about doing for a long time. And when you manage to do something you dream about there will be some down moments but you remember what you are doing and why you are doing it, and that motivating crawls right back in and you thrive again.

—Kuidas sa suhtud kriitikasse?

—Constructive criticism helps me improve, mature and evolve. There is always a positive way of looking at things, and criticism can be broken down and used in a positive manner.

—Millisena näed sa fotograafia tulevikku?

—Well who knows, it is constantly changing and there are so many different styles and techniques to choose from. But hopefully, it will become less fictional and more natural.

—Mida pildistades kindlasti ei tohiks teha?

—Pressure on the bride and groom. In order to take the best and most natural shots we need the bride and groom to be as relaxed as possible. And also mobile and table devises. There are numerous of occasions when the groom could not see the bride walking down the isle due to the amount of people leaning out with their phones and tables.

—Millised peaksid fotograafi valides olema kliendi kriteeriumid?

—Creativity, generosity, Easy contact to make the couple at ease, being able to handle crowds, people and situations to get great photos and reassure the couple.

—Kas sa oled fotogeenne?

—It depends. I'm very committed into my job and I'm very generous in what I do (always deliver more photos than promise). I cannot do this job halfway. Therefore, I don't like people criticizing what I do since they don't know how much I give into what i do.

—Digital imaging has unleash creativity from photographers. I do not see it change when I see how people love pictures so much and love creative pictures. I sometimes fear that phones will replace proper cameras since it is already happening into the hotel industry nowadays. They less and less call upon professional photographers but rely on enthusiasts "instagrammers" to remain active on social networks and use phone pictures and vintage look to keep "in".
