写真家Jonas Koel氏

—最初に - コペンハーゲン, デンマークで最高の写真家として誰の名前を挙げることができますか？:)

—To name one person as the best photographer would be wrong for many reasons. Photography is subjective, like any other art. However, there are many talented photographers and if I would recommend someone, I would choose a photographer who not only deals with a wedding Photography. The ability to create comes from experience and then you also need to work with other than just weddings.I find inspiration in many different photographers, but also artists in other areas.

—写真写りは良い方ですか？

—All are, in its own individual way. But I prefer taking shots of others ;)

—どうして写真撮影業界に入ったのですか？

—Wedding photography is amazing fun and offers something unique which makes is great. A great environment, an important occasion in life, people, joy, laughter, crying and life in itself encapsulated in a moment.

—良い写真を撮影するにあたって最も重要な要素とは何であるか、ご意見をお聞かせいただけますでしょうか？

—1. The story. What is the picture to tell you? All pictures have a story, small as big. As for the technique behind photography, I usually have some rules that I continuously base my pictures on. First, however, you have to answer for yourself what you are going to tell the picture. What is the goal. Otherwise, the rest will be wrong.1. Picture the photo into segment / layer. (every time)a) foreground
b) The object
d) Background2. Light (What for light and feeling to reach the goal?)3. Always work out that you will NOT need to edit the image4. Always get a little brighter than you want the final result to be. It is always easier to lower the light than vice versa. The details are found in bright parties, not in the dark.

—旅行が好きですか？

—Yes. Love it!

—あなたの職業について一番好きなことは何ですか？

—Creativity, freedom, creation, art, people, and all day are different.

—あなたの職業について一番嫌いなことは何ですか？

—Nothing really,

—未来の写真撮影とはどのようなものでしょうか？

—Many think it's going to be about more technology. And to some extent, it will certainly be so. We are using digital platforms more, but I also think many will go back and seek the authenticity, authenticity and preservation of the natural as it lasts.1. More movies2. More technical details such as animation3. Artificial animationBut, also more authenticity such as black / white, analogue and long-lasting images. Art is not based on technique, but can be used to support creation of art.

—あなたが専門とする特別な写真撮影のジャンルは？

—That happens just now and then. You have to catch up and catch the moment.

—批判に対処するには？

—I do not see it as criticism. It is my job to find out the customer's needs and wishes. I must have the knowledge to be able to deliver and adapt their expectations to what is possible. So it's rarely or never I've got criticism, because I'm good at reading customer needs.If they are not satisfied, I will change until they are satisfied. No more difficult than that.

—写真撮影でトレンドはありますか？

—Yes, to many. Many inexperienced wedding photographers are sadly following trends sometimes a bit too much. It may apply to different types of filters or styles. It's rarely good, as filters and trends sometimes can make you miss the customer's needs and create your own needs instead.The needs and wishes are individual and the photographer's job is to create the image according to the customer's needs, not according to his own needs.Trends are good, but be careful and use them as knowledge when creating your pictures. Do not limit yourself by taking shortcuts. I never use finished or created filters. My filter is the elements.

—写真家選択の際に、お客様が基準とすべきことは何ですか？

—They should consider what they want for kinds of pictures. Look at pictures and feel after. Save down images that they can send to the photographer and discuss around. The important thing is to have a dialogue with the photographer and decide what to do.Choose a photographer who not only deals with wedding photography. It's like any craftsmanship. A baker who only bakes a kind of cake is having trouble baking something else.1. What images do they want. Look at pictures2. Select an all-round photographer3. What is the budget4. Discuss and meet the photographer if possible

—撮影の際、絶対に受け入れがたいことは何でしょうか？

—Normally, you need integrity as a photographer and know how to approach other people in a private situation. Otherwise, there are no limitations in addition to what you have agreed with the once being involved. Art may gladly go beyond the boundaries, but it must happen in interaction with each other.

—写真家が気づくことができる普段は見過ごさせる細かい点は何ですか？

—A good photographer can capture the depth, moment and feelings. Many wedding pictures are amazing, but those that are most interesting in the long run are those where you caught the moment. A picture that has a depth, where you have the wedding couple in the picture, but where you also caught the feeling in the picture around the wedding couple. Laughter, crying .. What you first did not see.

—写真の価値に影響を与えるものとは何でしょうか？その要因は？

—The history
The people
The story
The moment
The feelingA photo is always immortal and remains there, even when the moment is not.

—どんな人を撮影したいですか？

—Donald Trump, Putin, Jim Morrison, Elvis Presley, Susan Sarandon, Koffi Annan, Kim Jung Un, etc. People that has a story to tell.

—プロとしてタブーとしている事はありますか？

—I do not take photographs that is considered unethical, immoral or can hurt anyone directly or indirectly. It's about extremes. But I base my work on common sense and humanism.I would never as example photograph a minor in an inappropriate manner, or photograph something that could be used improperly or for a politically negative purpose. Everybody can make a difference.

—誰と一緒に写真を撮りたいですか？

—Lots of people. But it would be very interesting to work together with people that not necessarily are photographer, but add elements through their work or personality. It could be artists, strong personalities or others. Would be amazing to work with Einstein or equivalent of today.

—心配事はありますか。またその理由は何でしょうか？

—I worry as many people do for the future. The world would have been better if ruled by the people, and not by corrupt politicians. People are basically good, but too many are not. Without today's corruption we would have had a world where we all lived in freedom.

—人生において最も印象的な瞬間とは何でしょうか？

—My kids! Josefin and Jakob.

—もしあなたがアニメ化されるとしたら、文学または映画の登場人物のどちらになりたいですか。またそれは何故ですか？

—I don't know if there is any of those that really impresses me. I am more impressed by every day people. The real heroes that do what they have to do, struggling and go to work everyday, those being role models for their surroundings and children and don't demand much back. That's the real heroes.

—あなたの人生においてインスピレーションの元となるのはどんな人ですか？また、それは何故ですか？

Everyone died before the war ended, except her.She fled and walked in the woods from Kirov to Tallinn, but was returned to Gulag again.

—あなたによって成功とは何でしょうか？また、それをどのように評価していますか？

I have worked as CEO of several global IT and finance companies and I have traveled all over the world. But it means nothing.Real success is the small things. The joy of having a cup of tea and conversation with someone you like. The meeting with people, waking up with someone you love.
