Haastattelu
-
—Ennen kaikkea - kenet voit nimetä parhaaksi kuvaajaksi kaupungissasi? :)
—There are a lot of great photographers in Ayia Napa... A lot of bad ones too! I couldn't pick 1 best but I could pick a handfull!
-
—Oletko valokuvauksellinen?
—I don't believe so! It's why I prefer to be on the other side of the camera!
-
—Miten päädyit valokuvausalalle?
—I started out as a nightlife photographer. I was asked to do a few family weddings, then a few friend's weddings and then I bit the bullet and decided to go full time!
-
—Mikä on sinusta tärkeintä hyvässä kuvassa?
—There are far too many elements that make a good photo! but the two at the top of my rule book are lighting and composition. If you can master those then the rest follows!
-
—Tykkäätkö matkustamisesta?
—I LOVE travelling. I just don't get to do much of it! haha
-
—Mistä pidät eniten ammatissasi?
—Client's reactions when they see the photos. It's one of the best "Feel Good" moments in a photographer's career!
-
—Mistä pidät vähiten ammatissasi?
—'Scuse my language... but the b*tchiness... between other photographers. At the end of the day business is business. but some people will go to great lengths to put others down. It's not great.
-
—Mikä on valokuvauksen tulevaisuus?
—on an iPhone.
-
—Mikä on sille valokuvauslajille erityistä, johon olet erikoistunut?
—It's fast paced, spontaneous at times and you need to be versatile with your ability to shoot in ANY situation!
-
—Kuinka suhtaudut kritiikkiin?
—I grow from it.
-
—Onko valokuvauksessa trendejä?
—Of course! but as photographers we try to do things differently.
-
—Minkä kriteerien perusteella asiakkaan pitäisi valita valokuvaaja?
—PHOTOS! forget about price for a minute. this is the single most important part of your day that you will have for generations! research your photographer and make sure they are up to the standard you want!
-
—Mikä on ehdottomasti kiellettyä kuvauksessa?
—Having uncle bob standing in front of me during the first kiss taking a photo on his iphone
-
—Mitkä yksityiskohdat, jotka yleensä jäävät huomaamatta, valokuvaaja voi tallettaa?
—Emotions.
-
—Mikä vaikuttaa kuvan arvoon? Mikä kuvissa on tärkeintä?
—a photo that tells a story, or shows an emotion which can trigger a memory. those are the best.
-
—Kuka on sinun mielestäsi 2000-vuosisadan symboli?
—I couldn't name one. but they are all artists!
-

—Miten ja millä perusteella määrittelisit menestyksen?
—Success to me is looking back and seeing how far you have come.
-
—Haluaisitko olla mieluummin tykätty vai kunnioitettu?

-
—Mikä on suurin virheesi, jonka olet tehnyt työssäsi?
—Not becoming a wedding photographer sooner!
-
—Kun lähdet matkalle, mitä otat mukaasi ja miksi?

-
—Mikä motivoi sinua jatkamaan kuvausta?
—Like I said before, the reaction of my clients when I deliver the photos. the smiles on their faces and the amazing comments and reviews they leave me on my website. As long as that keeps happening, I will continue shooting.
-
—Olisiko vanhempiesi pitänyt olla tiukempia tai päinvastoin?
—My parents were great! I was always creative as a child. I played music since I was 5. I was playing in 6 different bands when I was 14. and I was the principal of percussion in an orchestra when I was 16. My parents supported my creativity, and my music! I wouldn't be doing what I do if it wasn't for their support!
-
—Jos voisit palata ajassa taaksepäin, mitä tekisit eri tavalla?
