Fotograaf Filip Gržinčić

—Kas sa oled fotogeenne?

—Well, I prefer staying on the other side of the camera, although don't mind putting some poses on :)

—Kuidas sa sattusid fotograafiamaailma?

—I started photographing 9 years ago and with time, I photographed more of people, emotions, fashion than landscape or similar.. so I wanted to do a wedding and my friends took me as their wedding photographer and it all started then..

—Mis on sinu arvates hea foto kõige olulisead komponendid?

—A good photo has to show emotion and has to cause emotion with persons looking at it. Then I find it sucessfull.

—Kas sulle meeldib reisida?

—I adore traveling. If I have camera with me (in 90% of the case), then maybe I spend too much time searching for a good shot instead of just enjoying in the moments. Being a photographer takes a lot of love, but it is also a curse!

—Mis sulle sinu töö juures kõige rohkem meeldib?

—I like the chance to meet so many wonderful people, I always have fun and I get to go to places I would not go if I wasn't a photographer.

—Heavy equipment and backache after 12 hours of shooting.

—Mis on sinu fotograafiažanris erilist?

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

—Short moments of love.. Those smiles, those looks in love.. if you are not on that frequency, you will not see those, but I often freeze them..

—Mis teeb fotost väärtusliku? Mis elemendid on olulised?
