Fotograaf Antony Trivet

—Bent u fotogeniek?

—Oh,yes...actually selfie addict

—Hoe bent u beland in de fotografie-industrie?

—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.

—Wat zijn volgens u de belangrijkste elementen van een goede foto?

—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.

—Houdt u van reizen?

—Yes,a lot.
Actually this was one of my fisrt interest before joining photography,maybe I could be in Photojournalist industry

—Time consuming--especially when you are up-to something and at the end of the day you want to capture something new from the ordinary.

—Wat ziet u de toekomst van fotografie?

—I think photos will trump video even in the future. There will always be the need for photographer and part of the skills of shooting wedding will never be replaced by technology no matter how much it improves. And it takes more than just a good camera to make good pictures so photographers will still exist.
