Fotogrāfs Lili Castillo

—Pirmkārt un galvenokārt - kurš Tavuprāt ir labākais fotogrāfs Tavā pilsētā? :)

—Me! ;)

—Vai Tu esi fotogēnisks?

—I don´t think so.

—Kā tu nokļuvi fotogrāfijas jomā?

—I started in Madrid, when I went to study a master's degree in photography. What I start as a job to pay the bills ended as something that I love to do.

—Kuri, Tavuprāt, ir svarīgākie labas fotogrāfijas elementi?

—Light, composition and moments.

—Vai Tu mīli ceļošanu?

—Yes, it inspires me a lot. Thats why I love doing multicultural weddings, I love knowing more about other cultures, traditions and religions.

—Kas Tev vislabāk patīk savā profesijā?

—Search for unique moments that do not repeat, and make them look beautiful and powerful, make images that convey emotions.

—Kas ir īpašs fotogrāfijas žanrā, kurā specializējies?

—I think that wedding photography is the combination of many types of photography in a single day portrait, documentary, product, etc.

—Kā Tu uztver kritiku?

—It is very important to hear constructive criticism to grow as a photographer. It's hard to evolve without humility.

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

—I would say that each photographer has a look, if you see his portfolio and you feel identified with his or her images I think it is for you. In the end he will be your eyes that day.

—Kādus parasti nepamanītus brīžus var notvert fotogrāfs?

—Emotions and moments at their best, these happen in fractions of seconds.

—Kas ietekmē fotogrāfijas vērtību? Kādi ir tās elementi?

—An image that is beautiful, powerful or tells a story.

—Ko Tu vēlētos fotogrāfēt?

—Rather than thinking of a person I would think of an animal, the snow leopard. Since I saw the movie "The secret life of Walter Mitty" I was shocked thinking about living an experience like that.

—Ar ko Tu kopā vēlētos fotogrāfēt?

—With Paul Nicklen or with Cristina García Rodero.

—Kas Tevi iedvesmo dzīvē un kāpēc?

—I don't have a muse that inspires me, I think what inspires me are the relationships between people, I like the challenge of being able to capture those relationships in images.

—Kā Tu definētu veiksmi? Vai to var izmērīt?

—Success for me is to be the best photographer I know I can be, it is not a challenge against someone else but with myself. I think that as long as you love what you do you can always find a way to be better.

—Vai Tev labāk patīk tikt mīlētam vai tikt cienītam?

—Both, you can seek the balance.

—Kad Tu plāno ceļot, ko Tu ņem līdzi un kāpēc?

—My camera obviously, I could not have experiences and not want to keep them.

—Vai kāda ierīcēm (gadžetiem), kas Tev pieder, ir tāda, kuru Tev nebūtu vajadzējis pirkt? Kāpēc?

—Economic lenses, I did it when I was a rookie and I would never do it again.

—Kā Tu mācies, lai uzņemtu arvien labākas fotogrāfijas?

—Practicing, seeking criticism from other people I admire, and putting on personal challenges.

—Ko Tu vēlies pastāstīt ar savām fotogrāfijām?

—Although it sounds cheesy: love

—Kas Tevi motivē turpināt uzņemt fotogrāfijas?

—I love what I do.

—Ko Tu domā par dzīvi uz citām planētām?

—Maybe.

—Ko Tu dari brīvajā laikā?

—Of course, without a doubt.

—Kas Tev patīk labāk - kaķi vai suņi?

—Dogs.

—Vai ir kaut kas vai kāds, ko Tu ienīsti?

—Honey! I tried to like it but I can't.

—Labākā lieta dzīvē ir:

—The people we love and love us.

—Ko Tu vēlētos mainīt pasaulē?

—The selflessness for taking care of nature, we are destroying our planet.

—Kādi būtu Tavi padomi jaunajiem fotogrāfiem?

—Ja uz zemes nolaistos citplanētieši un Tu būtu pirmais, ko viņi satiktu, ko Tu viņiem teiktu?

—Welcome!
