Fotografo Christian Fagerland

—Come sei entrato nell'industria della fotografia?

—I've always had a passion to create something. In photography I found a way to really create something meaningful. Especially in weddings, I get to create images that have a big value to the couple.

—Secondo te, quali sono le componenti più importanti di una bella foto?

—The photo has to reflect something real. If you smile because I've told you to, it's not a real smile, it's a forced one.A good photo often contains few elements (you and a clean background), good light and real emotion.

—Ti piace viaggiare?

—I do! Then I can stop along the way and eat a big hamburger. mmmm

—Che cosa ti piace di più nella tua professione?

—To create something beautiful and meaningful

—Che cosa ti piace di meno nella tua professione?

—90% of photography is not actually taking photos. So I don't love some of the mundane tasks like accounting and stuff related to that.

—Quale sarà il futuro della fotografia?

—The more advanced the cameras become, the more technically correct the images will be. Less blur, less missed focus, more accurate colors and light.We humans want our art to be created by humans. This means there has to be some imperfections, or else it just looks to sterile and uninspiring. The future of photography will then be more and more about post prosessing. If the photographer have a 100% technically correct image, he or she can create something great of this in post.

—Come gestisci la critica?

—Pretty well. It might affect me as anyone, but if it's constructive I will appreciate it, so I might learn from it.

—Ci sono determinate tendenze nella fotografia?

—Now in 2020, there seem to be a global trend for over-warming the images. Some look so yellow I can almost feel the sun.I don't follow trends. I photograph weddings, and I don't want my clients too look at the images 20 years from now and get embarrassed over the crazy 2020-style.

—Quali criteri dovrebbe utilizzare un cliente per scegliere un fotografo?

—Get one you like the images of. Call them, do you like them still? Is this someone you would like to be close to a few hours on you biggest day ever?If you are on a tight budget, get a good photographer to photograph the ceremony and portraits, or just portraits, rather then a mediocre to cover the whole day.

—Che cosa non è ammesso durante la ripresa fotografica?

—Funny poses. I never ask you to do something "funny". If a friend of you say "heeyyy, wont you to hide behind the tree there and poke your heads out from the tree? that'll be funnnnnnn"No thank you.

—Quali dettagli, che solitamente passano inosservati, riesce a notare un fotografo?

—Grandparents interacting with grandchildren. #sweet

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

—Moments. I want the couple to get images of moments. When you look at the image, you just remember how you felt that moment.

—Che cosa vorresti fotografare?

—I don't think that way. I'm glad to photograph anyone!
