Jurufoto Hiram Trillo

—Adakah anda seorang yang fotogenik?

—Nope...that's why I try to stand behind the camera :)

—Bagaimanakah anda mula menceburkan diri dalam industri fotografi?

—I have been in photography for a while, but took the leap to wedding photography after being terribly disappointed with out own wedding imagery.

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

—Emotion! An image without soul and feeling is an empty image.

—Adakah anda minat mengembara?

—Yes! I am lucky enough to be able to travel all over the world capturing memories for other.

—Apakah yang paling anda sukai mengenai kerjaya anda?

—The range of people I get to meet, and the love displayed across cultures.

—Traveling without my family! Now that I am a father it's tough leaving my family for days. But I have an amazing wife that is my rock and cheerleader.

—Apakah masa depan fotografi?

—I don't know and that is what I love about it. Having to discover myself and push myself each wedding is an amazing feeling and hope that I keep pushing forward.

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

—You have one shot! That is it! I love capturing moments as they happen and don't recreate any, so I have one shot.

—Bagaimanakah cara anda menangani kritikan?

—I think well. You have to, no one is perfect and the only way to keep learning and pushing yourself is by listening and paying attention. There will always be "hater" and people that will try to pull you down. Just keep your head up and your client happy.

—Adakah wujud sebarang trend dalam fotografi?

—Yes, there are always trends and they change all the time. I try not to follow them because most trends die out. I focus on giving my clients timeless pieces with the next generation in mind. I want their children and grandchildren to cherish the images as much as they do.
