Fotograaf Steve Wheller

—Kas sa oled fotogeenne?

—I don't think so unless you catch me in a drunken moment :-)

—Kuidas sa sattusid fotograafiamaailma?

—I suppose a lot like everyone else. Started doing photography as a hobby, photographing the landscape around Wales and then covered a friends wedding and then the story begins.

—Mis on sinu arvates hea foto kõige olulisead komponendid?

—Capturing the moment as it happens. A good photo should evoke the emotion of what happened in the exact moment the shutter was pressed. It should tell a story and leave memories for the people in the photo

—Kas sulle meeldib reisida?

—I love travelling to different destinations and exploring the history, landscape and architecture and where possible use these in my photos to portray a story.

—Mis sulle sinu töö juures kõige rohkem meeldib?

—Meeting new people all the time

—Mis sulle sinu töö juures kõige vähem meeldib?

—The long days

—Millisena näed sa fotograafia tulevikku?

—Who know's. Everyone's a photographer these days. I think technology is going to take over. I think wedding photography is not just about taking pictures is interacting with people on the day, making sure the day goes smoothly and capturing the day as the couple expect with a little spice thrown in. Everyone can take a picture but not everyone can evoke emotion.

—Mis on sinu fotograafiažanris erilist?

—It is one of chance to capture someone's day as it happens. Hopefully they only get married once and I am there to record their day. I think if the couple looks back at my photos and it brings a smile to their face then I have done my job.

—Kuidas sa suhtud kriitikasse?

—I think quite well, initially it's a hit in the stomach but this drives me on to become a better photographer.

—Kas fotograafias on teatud trende?

—Not sure

—Millised peaksid fotograafi valides olema kliendi kriteeriumid?

—That they like the photographs first, then meet the photographer to see if they gel. You need to get on with your photographer as you're with them all day. Make sure the style of photography reflects their personality and don't be afraid to ask questions.

—Mida pildistades kindlasti ei tohiks teha?

—Nothing

—Mis võiksid olla need detailid, millele tavaliselt tähelepanu ei pöörata, kuid mida fotograaf võib märgata?

—I think you have to have the eye to see what is going to happen and when it's going to happen plus have the ability to react to the quick changes in light and weather. That's where experience comes in, you only have one chance you have to nail it there and then.
