Wywiad
-
—Po pierwsze i najważniejsze - kto według Ciebie jest najlepszym fotografem w Twoim mieście? :)
—There are a lot of really great upcoming photographers in Agadir! It really is a beautiful place for a photographer to grow! But as far as who is the best, I'd rather not say, so not to offend!
-
—Czy jesteś fotogeniczny/fotogeniczna?
—Depends on who takes the photo! hahaha! My wife does a great job of making me look good!
-
—Co sprawiło, że zajmujesz się fotografią?
—I started out more of a commercial photographer, and a wedding planner friend asked me to capture the events of one of her clients. I agreed and loved it! The bride and groom also loved the photos and from there I decided to put more emphasis on the wedding photography industry! It's been an absolute joy capturing the love stories of those we now consider good friends!
-
—Jakie twoim zdaniem są najważniejsze czynniki decydujące o dobrym zdjęciu?
—Light, composition, and a little something out of the box. With every photo I like to try and capture something unique that tells a story, however staying true to my style!
-
—Kochasz podróże?
—Love traveling! It's so much fun to explore a new place!
-
—Co najbardziej lubisz w swoim zawodzie?
—I would say the relationships that I develop with the couple before, during and after the wedding is what brings me so much joy. I love being able to be at their wedding and celebrate their love story! I feel honored to capture that through my camera and preserve those special memories.
-
—Co najmniej lubisz w swoim zawodzie?
—I'm not a big administration person, but even in this I have learned how to deal with the business side of things and can find joy in that.
-
—Jaka będzie przyszłość fotografii?
—Robots. All Robots. Some guy in the corner controlling the robots. It will be lame. For me, I will always take the personal approach, it's what I love about my job!
-
—Co wyróżnia rodzaj fotografii, którym się zajmujesz?
—Again, I think it's the relationship. It's so key. If I can help a bride and groom relax and not be stressed about the photography on the day of their wedding, then they can just have fun and enjoy their special day. I believe that this comes by getting to know our couples, learn what makes them laugh and hear their story. Not being in the way of their way and upsetting a special moment, but rather being apart of the day and capturing it.
-
—Jak radzisz sobie z krytyk?
—No one likes criticism if they are not looking for it. But if you take an approach of criticism being a way to learn and grow then it's welcomed. I often will seek out criticism so that my couples can continue receiving the best!
-
—Jakie kryteria powinien przyjąć klient przy wyborze fotografa?
—I think a couple should really look at a photographers style. If they like their style that is a good starting point. Sometimes photographers have a lot of different styles which can be ok, but then the expectations of a couple of what their photos will look like is a bit shakey. I think reliability and professionalism are also huge.
-
—Co jest absolutnie niedozwolone podczas sesji?
—ruining the moment by jumping in the middle of something special and start directing the couple what to do.
-
—Kogo chcesz fotografować?
—Your love story!
-
—Z kim marzy ci się fotografować?
—I love taking photos with my wife! She comes on all our shoots and is absolutely fantastic! She's super great at relating with the couples and has such a creative eye!
-
—Jak uczysz się robić lepsze zdjęcia?
—Practice! Trying different approaches, using different lighting setups, using different tools. Trying to not get stuck in a routine is huge. Always pushing myself to get better and better, to get faster and faster. To help the couple relax more and more.
-
—Czyje prace miały na ciebie największy wpływ jako na fotografa?
—Twomann Photography, Adam Johnson (ARJ Photography)
-
—Co chcesz przekazać poprzez swoje fotografie?
—Every couple has a different love story and that is what I want to capture, and help to preserve. But for my style I love to be bold and beautiful. Lots of colour, contrast, and emotion!
-
—Co motywuje cię do dalszej pracy w fotografii?
—The pursuit of creation! I love to create! I also have an equal passion for being with people. So developing new relationships and creating beautiful images is the perfect combination
-
—Co robisz w czasie wolnym?
—I love to work with wood, and creating projects around my house.
-
—Kiedy twoja praca w pełni cię zadowala?
—Often times yes, but I still want to push myself further!
-
—W życiu najlepsze jest:
—Honestly, the first thing I would have to put here is God. Thanks to him my life is fabulous! I'm pretty excited about my wife also!
-
—Jutro pójdę i...
—A photoshoot, editing, and marketing. It seems to be the standard day.
