Fotogrāfs Christian Fagerland

—Kā tu nokļuvi fotogrāfijas jomā?

—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.

—Kuri, Tavuprāt, ir svarīgākie labas fotogrāfijas elementi?

—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.

—Vai Tu mīli ceļošanu?

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

—Kas Tev vislabāk patīk savā profesijā?

—To create something beautiful and meaningful

—Kas Tavā profesijā Tev patīk vismazāk?

—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.

—Kāda būs fotogrāfijas nākotne?

—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.

—Kā Tu uztver kritiku?

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

—Vai fotogrāfijā ir kādas īpašas tendences?

—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.

—Kādi ir kritēriji, kas klientam jāņem vērā, izvēloties fotogrāfu?

—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.

—No kā fotogrāfējot būtu jāizvairās?

—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.

—Kādus parasti nepamanītus brīžus var notvert fotogrāfs?

—Grandparents interacting with grandchildren. #sweet

—Kas ietekmē fotogrāfijas vērtību? Kādi ir tās elementi?

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

—Ko Tu vēlētos fotogrāfēt?

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