Intervija
-
—Vai Tu esi fotogēnisks?
—Oh,yes...actually selfie addict
-
—Kā tu nokļuvi fotogrāfijas jomā?
—I started taking pictures artistically in 2010 after high school at the Mwelu Foundation, shooting for free while I decided if I wanted to turn into a professional photographer. I started to build my professional portfolio when I joined Photo-Magic Studio in 2014 and take on clients.
-
—Kuri, Tavuprāt, ir svarīgākie labas fotogrāfijas elementi?
—Every image needs a basic structure. Without an underlying structure, it is just another boring photo.Every image needs strong underlying com-positional order so that it grabs the eye from a hundred feet away.If it can't grab the eye from a distance, it will never be an interesting photo, regardless of how many fine details it might have. Details don't matter if there's no story behind it.
