Fotograaf Siemenjov Galdes

—Kas sa oled fotogeenne?

—Only when I am not trying to be :)

—Kuidas sa sattusid fotograafiamaailma?

—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.

—Mis on sinu arvates hea foto kõige olulisead komponendid?

—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.

—Kas sulle meeldib reisida?

—I can't get enough of it ;)

—Mis sulle sinu töö juures kõige rohkem meeldib?

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

—Mis sulle sinu töö juures kõige vähem meeldib?

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

—Millisena näed sa fotograafia tulevikku?

—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.

—Mis on sinu fotograafiažanris erilist?

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

—Kuidas sa suhtud kriitikasse?

—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.

—Kas fotograafias on teatud trende?

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

—Millised peaksid fotograafi valides olema kliendi kriteeriumid?

—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.

—Mida pildistades kindlasti ei tohiks teha?

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