Fotografo Anne Ling

—Come sei entrato nell'industria della fotografia?

—My way in photography started 10 years ago with editorial and fashion. But I've always admired real people and real emotions much more. So that's how I've started documenting weddings and other important life moments in different countries.

—Ti piace viaggiare?

—I'm a passionate traveller. I've already been to 39 countries and I'm really happy that my work is international.

—Cosa c'è di speciale nel genere di fotografia in cui sei specializzato?

—Wedding photography combines documentary and fine art photography. So being a professional in both is crucial.

—Che cosa influisce sul valore di una foto? Quali sono le sue componenti?

—Time influences the value of a photo the most. Photos are like good wine – the older the better. While capturing a wedding I always keep in mind that this photos will keep the memories through the years.

—Hai qualche tabù professionale?

—I never photograph people in embarrassing situation or angle.

—Il lavoro di chi ha avuto la maggiore influenza su di te come fotografo?

—I've studied fine arts since childhood. So all the great painters, photographers, film directors influenced me a lot.

—Che cosa vuoi dire con le tue fotografie?

—That it is much more important to collect feelings not things. Nothing will be more valuable for you through the years than a teardrop on your mother's cheek or a sincere hug of your best friend or a picture of you two standing on the edge of the earth holding hands and looking to each other's eyes.

—Qual è la tua motivazione per continuare a scattare fotografie?

—My clients, of course. When I send them their photos and receive an answer: "We are totally in love with our photos! Thank you so much, Anne!!!"
In such moments I feel absolutely happy!
