Fotograaf Thomas Bone

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

—I would say Ravi Lakhani is up there with the best in Leicester. A lot of great photographers to choose from.

—Kas sa oled fotogeenne?

—Depends how many glasses of wine I have had...

—Kuidas sa sattusid fotograafiamaailma?

—11 years ago when I met a nightclub photographer on my first night out in Leicester. I took a huge interest in what he does and not long after bought a camera myself. I nagged and nagged him for weeks to help him on one of the nights he shoots until he let me. Not long after I landed myself my own job at a different club.

—Mis on sinu arvates hea foto kõige olulisead komponendid?

—I always seem to look for straight lines and symmetrical compositions. Even if I'm taking candids. I also LOVE a good crop :D

—Kas sulle meeldib reisida?

—I LOVE travelling. I was lucky enough to travel the world as a filmmaker for MTV for 5 and a half years.

—Mis sulle sinu töö juures kõige rohkem meeldib?

—I have been very lucky to never have had a 'real' 9-5 Job. I love that every job I do has its own unique challenge. I love getting to know a couple deeper than just a 'booking' which I find helps me a great deal when photographing their wedding day.

—Mis sulle sinu töö juures kõige vähem meeldib?

—Coronavirus.

—Millisena näed sa fotograafia tulevikku?

—I'm not a huge fan of them yet but I do feel like mirrorless cameras will start to take over. Bang for buck mirrorless cameras are leaving the DSLR's behind in terms of specs and stats. But at the end of the day, like everyone says... It's about who's about the camera.

—Mis on sinu fotograafiažanris erilist?

—The emotional connection between the stories/photos I take and the Bride & Groom. I also love getting to know the guests. Oh and you will probably catch me on the dance floor at some point in the night...

—Kuidas sa suhtud kriitikasse?

—I handle criticism really well. I believe handling criticism well makes you a better person in and out of work. I always make sure whatever the criticism is, I work on it to make sure I improve.
