Anna Rowland fotós

—Mindenekelőtt - ki a legjobb fotós Exeter, Egyesült Királyság városában? : )

—I genuinely couldn't tell you for sure.

—Ön fotogén?

—No. I really dislike being on the other side of the camera, which is a shame but maybe in time I will feel differently.

—Hogyan csöppent a fényképezés világába?

—It's my life's work – initially I think a friend asked me when I was about 18, it kinda went from there.

—Véleménye szerint mik egy jó fotó legfontosabb elemei?

—Emotion, composition, heart, light. All equally important and when they come together to create something that speaks to you and makes you take a second look, that's what works for me.

—Szeret utazni?

—Infinitely so.

—Mi szeret szakmájában a legjobban?

—Meeting people and visiting places I otherwise wouldn't have, and the freedom of self-employment.

—Mi szeret szakmájában a legkevésbé?

—The degree of uncertainty attached to any form of self-employment I guess.

—Milyen lesz a fotózás jövője?

—Hard to say, the standards are very high now. I'd say exactly what it is right now – real moments.

—Mi a különleges abban a fotózási műfajban, amelyik az Ön szakterülete?

—Capturing moments that happen fleetingly to remember always. Creating images that will evoke a memory or feeling of a loved person is the aspect most special to me.

—Hogyan bírja a kritikát?

—Pretty well. I think it's essential to progress. I might not always agree, but I welcome it.

—Észlelhetők tendenciák a fotózásban?

—Always, I try to stay true to what I personally believe in, so I ignore them.

—Mi alapján kellene kiválasztaniuk az ügyfeleknek a fotóst?

—Something they can really feel. I truly think it’s a heart-led thing.

—Mi az, ami a fényképezés során teljességgel megengedhetetlen?

—I can't think of anything specific – always work around any potential issues

—Milyen általában észrevétlen részletek ragadhatják meg egy fotós figyelmét?

—Fleeting expressions

—Mitől válik értékessé egy fotó? Mik az elemei?

—An insight into a character, moment or exchange

—Véleménye szerint ki lehetne a 21. század szimbóluma?

—I don't have an opinion on that.

—Mit kíván megörökíteni?

—People with character. There's no single person I can conjure up in my head and think 'i'd like to take photos of that person'.

—Van valamilyen szakmai tabuja?

—Umm, wearing fur, I disagree with that so very much.

—Kivel szeretne lefényképezkedni?

—No one in particular

—Mi aggasztja és miért?

—Professionally I try not to worry and take everything as it comes. Wedding photography always comes with its challenges, the trick is how you deal with them.

—Mi élete legnagyszerűbb mozzanata?

—Does getting out of bed every morning count? Thought not. Having my son, probably.

—Ha rajzfilmfigura, irodalmi alak vagy moziszereplő lehetne, kit választana és miért?

—Nala from Lion King. No reason, just a cool name and I like lions.

—Ki van életére ihlető hatással és miért?

—My son, just by being new and cool

—Hogyan határozná meg a sikert? Mi a mércéje?

—Being happy

—A szeretetet vagy az elismerést igényli jobban?

—Either, both, neither

—Mi volt a legnagyobb hiba, amelyet munkája során elkövetett?

—Not planning a route and getting lost pre-ceremony. It only happened once.

—Hova készül utazni, mit visz magával és miért?

—Everything I think I might need and more

—Van a tulajdonában lévő kacatok közt olyasmi, aminek a megvásárlását megbánta? Miért?

—Probably about 60% of it.
I bought a time-lapse camera for my husband once, it was really expensive and he used it once then it sat and got old and rubbish before he would admit he would never use it again in time for me to sell it. I've always been quite annoyed at him about that. I wonder if he will ever read this...

—Hogyan fejleszti magát, hogy egyre jobb képek kerüljenek ki a kezei alól?

—Just by choosing to continue learning, being inspired by work outside of weddings and by being more considered with my frames. I also try not to be too formulaic and complacent. I know my job so well now that I could risk being just that. I think my genuine love for working with people, emotion and light always drives me to create something I'm proud of. I'm not sure i've actually answered that question...

—Kinek a munkája volt a legnagyobb hatással az fotós pályafutására?

—Its changed vastly over the years. Currently I do my own thing, I couldn't name one person specifically who has influenced me over another.

—Mi az, amit szeretné, ha tudott volna fotós pályafutása kezdetén?

—I'm happy with how my career has evolved as it is

—Mit kíván fényképeivel közölni?

—These people are real

—Mi motiválja, hogy tovább fotózzon?

—The feedback. Every time. Also light. When I'm without a camera and I see beautiful light I'd want to create an interesting frame with, a little part of me mourns the possibility of what could have been. I usually try to take it in with my eyes and hope I can store it away in my brain for another day when I might have my camera and similar light to play with.

—Hogy érzi, szülei szigorúbbak vagy kevésbé szigorúak lehettek volna inkább?

—My upbringing wasn't conventional. I'm pretty happy with how life has shaped me though and parenting is just a part of that.

—Ha visszatérhetne az időben, mit tenne másképp?

—Nothing. Life has been challenging in parts, but had it not been, I wouldn't be who I am now.

—Mi a véleménye a más bolygókon való életről?

—I'd say it would be naive to assume we are the only ones!

—Kiket tart a hőseinek?

—I don't have any as such.

—Ki az, akit nem tud elismerni?

—People who do not operate kindly and with respect to all living things

—Mivel foglalkozik szabad idejében?

—I don't really have much spare time, I like to stay busy and there's always something to do.

—Mely oldaláról nem ismeri a nyilvánosság?

—My introverted/shy side, which is the real me. This seems a funny question, like I'm famous. Alas I am not. I have no public. I have a few close friends who know the real me, when at work I guess I created a persona I can hide behind to a degree.

—Mikor teljességgel elégedett munkájával?

—Never. I always want to be better

—Hisz a férfiak és nők hagyományos szerepében?

—I believe we should all be whatever we want to be, regardless of gender stereotypes. In my household the 'traditional' roles are reversed in many senses. I've never personally felt I have had to fall within any gender stereotypes. I guess I like my husband to put the bins out, but then I do the car maintenance. I think what I'm trying to say is no.

—Könnyen barátkozik?

—With some people its easy, with others I immediately decide it's not and so I don't tend to pursue them. I'm shy so this narrows down the whole 'new friends' possibilities as I don't tend to approach people.

—Hol szeretne élni?

—New Zealand

—Mi volt a legnagyobb szamárság, amelyre hagyta magát rábeszélni?

—I don't think I have really done anything too stupid. I'm cautious, but can be easily led astray to do things that may be unwise, not so much stupid.

—Van élet a házasság után?

—Of course

—Van kedvenc vicce? Mondja el.

—I don't retell jokes well

—A kutyákat, vagy a macskákat kedveli inkább?

—Cats, but I have and love both, so both, I should say, but mostly cats

—Kit, vagy mit gyűlöl?

—Cruelty

—A legjobb dolog az életben:

—Love, then tea.

—A legbosszantóbb dolog az életben:

—Don't start me, there's more than one. If pushed, I'd have to say a half-full bottle of water rolling around in my (car) passenger footwell, that's basically hell. Half-full because it makes more of a sloshy sound to add to the annoyance.

—Van a környezetében valami, amin változtatni szeretne?

—Attitudes, and ignorance.

—Mit szeretne megváltoztatni önmagában?

—Nothing, and yet everything. That’s not an easily answered question :)

—Mit szeretne megváltoztatni a világon?

—Greed, war, politics, animal cruelty. The world needs more changes than I can fit in this box

—Tudna néhány tanácsot adni a kezdő fotósoknak?

—Watch everything, work hard, slow down, understand people, accept challenges will happen, find your own vision, and love what you do.

—Ha idegenek szállnának le a földön, és Ön lenne az első, akivel találkoznának, mit mondana nekik?

—Be kind

—Ha filmforgatásra kérnék fel, milyen műfajt választana?

—No doubt some kind of weird indie film

—Holnap fogok...

—I'm shooting a wedding.
