Jurufoto Marius Tudor

—Adakah anda seorang yang fotogenik?

—My mother loves all my pictures, she belives I am photogenic!

—Bagaimanakah anda mula menceburkan diri dalam industri fotografi?

—I have started almost 6 years ago after I met my love Gabriela. I did not start with shooting flowers, but I took it straight the hard way. Three months after I grabbed my first semi-professional camera I shot for free my first wedding. Since then, I shot almost 200 weddings and 100 baptisms.

—Apakah komponen paling penting sekeping foto yang bagus menurut pendapat anda?

—I strongly belive in a moment as the first component and I am always fighting to find it. Before finding the moment, I scout for the best light condition and I am making some composition scenarios. Having all those elements in my mind I start to shoot until I get what I want. Sometimes nothing happens in the frame, but patience is my ally.

—Apakah masa depan fotografi?

—I think we have to understand the new generation, people between 20 and 25 years. They are different than the people we've shot before and trying to adapt to their way of living, thinking and acting will be the next step in our business. The future of wedding photography stays in crazy shots. Traditional is dying.

—Apakah yang istimewa dalam genre fotografi yang anda sedang mengkhusus?

—Bagaimanakah cara anda menangani kritikan?
