फोटोग्राफर Jamie Orndorff

—सबसे पहले सबसे महत्वपूर्ण बात - आप टम्पा, यूनाइटेड स्टेट्‍स में सबसे अच्छा फोटोग्राफर किसे कह सकते हैं? :)

—If I'm being honest? Hehe...I love the work my husband and I do. We have shot weddings for about three years now so we've had time to refine our style and learn from other amazing photographers...making us the best us we could be!!

—क्या आप फ़ोटोजेनिक हैं?

—My husband says yes. I say meh.

—आप फोटोग्राफ़ी इंडस्ट्री में कैसे आए?

—I've always found people to be the most interesting subjects. Seeing different expressions and emotions on one's face. When I started photographing people- I realized I loved capturing those expressions. Then I started photographing couples and realized I love capturing LOVE. It's beautiful and real and raw.

—आपकी नज़र में एक अच्छी तस्वीर में सबसे महत्वपूर्ण बातें क्या हैं?

—As an adventurous person- I love a beautiful landscape. Mountains, beaches, cliffs...anything in nature makes a beautiful photo for me.

—क्या आपको यात्रा करना पसंद है?

—Traveling is basically our life. We've shot in Iceland, Mexico, California, Arizona, Tennessee, and many other incredible places. We love it more than we love tacos.

—अपने पेशे के बारे में आपको सबसे अधिक क्या पसंद है?

—My favorite thing is meeting new people and seeing new places. We have met so many awesome people during our time as photographers and that is an amazing bonus to this job!

—अपने पेशे के बारे में आपको क्या सबसे कम पसंद है?

—...the way my back hurts after shooting a 9 hour wedding day.

—फ़ोटोग्राफ़ी का क्या भविष्य है?

—Hopefully more creative and unique photographers and less typical poses and fake smiles.

—आप जिस फोटोग्राफी में स्पेश्लाइज़ेशन रखते हैं उसमें क्या खास होता है?

—Weddings are truly a beautiful and special thing in themselves. Being one of the most important days in one's life, there are always many different emotions throughout the day. The wedding photographer has the privilege of getting to capture all of them. It's amazing. A lot of times, it makes US cry!

—आलोचनाओं को आप किस रूप में लेते हैं?

—I always want to be a better photographer, person, wife, etc. Criticism is something difficult to take when given, but keeps me up at night. I definitely think it's needed in order to improve.

—क्या फ़ोटोग्राफ़ी में कोई ट्रेंड चल रहे हैं?

—Absolutely. Everyone is always trying to find their own style and niche and a lot of times copy others style of work. I say it's best to forget the trends and find your own lane.

—यदि किसी ग्राहक को फोटोग्राफ़र चुनना हो तो उसे क्या देखना चाहिए?

—Trust and taste are two huge factors. Every person needs to trust their photographer, meaning they need to build a sort of rapport. They should prove that they are able to capture and understand what is important to you. And of course taste- choose a photographer who's work you love! :-)

—शूटिंग के दौरान किन बातों की बिलकुल अनुमति नहीं होती है?

—Over posing. Fake smiles. Messy backgrounds.

—एक फोटोग्राफर ऐसी कौन सी चीजें कैप्चर कर सकता है जो आमतौर पर नज़रों में नहीं आतीं?

—People don't always notice the best light, whereas photographers are chasers of beautiful light. Also little things- such as leading lines and unique spots that may look ordinary to the common eye...but look like a fairytale in a photograph.

—फ़ोटो के मूल्य को क्या प्रभावित करता है? इसके तत्व यानी एलीमेंट्स क्या हैं?

—The memories that come with the photo, what it can mean to a client. That is everything. Genuine laughs and happy tears captured in a photograph can be so valuable to someone.

—आपकी राय में 21वीं सदी का प्रतीक कौन व्यक्ति हो सकता है?

—A symbol is different to everyone, we all have different inspirations. For me, I am inspired by Don and Helen, amazing and creative wedding photographers who thrive on the unconventional.

—आप किसकी तस्वीरें उतारना चाहेंगे?

—People that are ridiculously, ridiculously, ridiculously in love. ;-)

—क्या आपका कोई प्रोफ़ेशनल टैबू है यानी पेशे की दृष्टि से कोई वर्जित बातें?

—Drinking on the job. Oh well...

—आप किसके साथ शूटिंग करना पसंद करेंगे?

—Don and Helen. Chris Burkard. There are some talented people out there.

—आप किस बारे में चिंतित रहते हैं, और क्यों?

—I usually worry about everything when I'm on a plane. Nothing a little wine can't fix. Other than that, I don't worry too much. What's the point?

—आपके जीवन का सबसे प्रभावशाली क्षण कौन-सा है?

—I will never forget standing under the northern lights in Iceland. Honestly, creation is the most outstanding thing in the world. I was breathless and speechless.

—यदि आपके पास किसी एनीमेशन, साहित्य या मूवी का कैरेक्टर बनने का मौका हो तो आप कौन-सा कैरेक्टर बनना चाहेंगे और क्यों?

—I think I would be Jess from New Girl. We have the same taste in style and are quirky by nature. Also I totally copied her bangs.

—आपको अपने जीवन कौन सबसे अधिक प्रेरित करता है और क्यों?

—My husband definitely inspires me. He is so creative and down to earth and smart and kind. If everyone were like him, the earth would ROCK.

—सफलता को आप कैसे परिभाषित करते हैं? आप इसे कैसे मापते हैं?

—True success, I believe, is measured by happiness. If you are happy, you are successful. Simple as that!

—पसंद किए जाने की या सम्मान पाने की, आपकी चाहत क्या रहती है?

—Can't I have both? Haha...I guess I would say respected. Because people that like you may not like you the next day. If you're respected once, likely you'll be respected a long time.

—अभी तक काम के दौरान सबसे बड़ी गलती या भूल आपकी क्या रही है?

—I used to work for a makeup company, and one time I messed up at inventory. All the numbers were wrong and we had to do it again...6 hours of work.

—जब आप यात्रा पर जा रहे होते हैं तो अपने साथ आप क्या लेकर चलते हैं और क्यों?

—Obviously, I always take my camera gear. Ha ha.

—क्या आपके पास कोई ऐसी चीज़ है जिसे आप सोचते हैं कि काश मैंने इस गैजेट को नहीं खरीदा होता? यदि ऐसा है तो, क्यों?

—Nothing that I can think of...

—आप बेहतर तस्वीरें लेने के लिए अपने आप को कैसे शिक्षित करते हैं?

—The best way to do this is to always be taking pictures. Whether it's with my professional gear or my iphone, I am always taking pictures and learning about light and composition

—एक फ़ोटोग्राफ़र के रूप में आप किसके काम से सबसे अधिक प्रभावित हैं?

—Like I mentioned before, Don and Helen have influenced me the most. I love how they just don't fit in with any cliches. They see things the rest of the world is blind to. It's a beautiful thing.

—जब आपने फ़ोटो खींचना शुरू किया तो वह कौन-सी ऐसी एक चीज़ है जिसे आप सोचते हैं कि काश उसे आप जानते होते?

—I wish I knew to take photos in RAW format...not jpeg. Hahaha...

—आप अपनी तस्वीरों के बारे में क्या कहना चाहते हैं?

—I want them to show genuine emotions and love. Everything must be real.

—तस्वीरें लेना जारी रखने के लिए कौन-सी बात आपको प्रेरित करती है?

—One of my favorite things to do is meet with other photographers and find out why they started photography, what keeps them going, what their favorite aspects are about it, etc. We did that recently with some amazing people and it really inspired us and motivated us to push ourselves harder to really give our best.

—क्या आपके माता-पिता कमोबेश सख्त रहे होते?

—Hmm... I'd say less. Hehe. But I never got in too much trouble so I guess that's a good thing, right?

—यदि आप समय पर घर पहुँच सकें तो क्या कुछ आप अलग करना चाहेंगे?

—I would not have cut my bangs myself. Not good.

—अन्य ग्रहों पर जीवन के बारे में क्या राय है?

—We'll have to go explore and find out won't we???

—आपके नायक-नायिकाएँ कौन हैं?

—My husband.

—किसके लिए आपके मन में कोई इज्जत नहीं है?

—I have no respect for selfish and proud people. We all live on the same beautiful earth and we should be giving and display humility in all we do.

—आप अपने खाली समय में क्या करते हैं?

—Apparently I complete long interviews about my life, as I'm doing right now. But also, I mostly take photos and cuddle with my dog. Seriously, my dog is sooooo cute.

—आपके जीवन का कौन-सा ऐसा पहलू है जिसे आम लोग कभी नहीं देख पाते हैं?

—Woah...perhaps the sheer amount of ice cream that I consume. I will forever love Ben and Jerry's.

—कब आप अपने काम से पूरी तरह संतुष्ट होते हैं?

—When I make my clients happy cry. That is my biggest satisfaction, because I have done my job correctly.

—क्या आप पुरुषों और महिलाओं के लिए तय पारंपरिक भूमिकाओं में विश्वास करते हैं?

—I believe everyone has their own mind, their own conscience, and can do whatever they want to do.

—क्या आप आसानी से दोस्त बना लेते हैं?

—I am an INFJ. I am introspective, and very observant. When people realize that I'm not bored and am actually just observing them and getting to know them, then we can develop a close bond.

—आपको कहाँ पर रहना पसंद है?

—Without hesitation I can say one day I would love to live in Iceland! We have been twice and we are so in love. It is beautiful and cold and everything I would ever want!

—अभी तक ऐसी सबसे बेवकूफी भरी बात क्या रही है जिसे करने के लिए आप तैयार हो गए थे?

—I would have to say...draw tattoos on myself from head to toe with a permanent marker. Yes, you can shake your head...it was very, very stupid.

—क्या जीवन शादी के बाद होता है?

—YES! I am married and my life is great. Traveling wedding photographers. What could be better?

"To get to the utter side."
I LOVE COW JOKES!

—जीवन में सबसे अच्छी बात यह है:

—Dogs. Ice cream. Duh.

—जीवन में सबसे कष्टप्रद बात यह है:

—The alarm going off before 8am.

—क्या आपके आसपास कुछ ऐसा है जिसमें आप बदलाव चाहेंगे?

—If I could change other people's attitudes to make everyone friendly, I would probably change that. But from where I stand, no changes needed.

—आप स्वयं में क्या बदलाव लाना चाहेंगे?

—Hmm...I would like to have more patience. I'm just not a patient person but I think it's a great quality to have.

—आप दुनिया में क्या बदलाव लाना चाहेंगे?

—I would like there to be no more animal shelters. All animals have a home and happiness, that is ideal.

—क्या आप बिल्कुल नए फ़ोटोग्राफ़रों के लिए कुछ सुझाव दे सकते हैं?

—Yes! Be a part of the community and get creative with your work. Don't try to just copy others and become popular. When you find your own style, stick with it and people will see that it's original.
