Фотограф Dan Fedez

—Самый волнующий нас вопрос – кто лучший фотограф в вашем городе? :)

—There are some really good photographers here, each one with it's own style.

—Вы фотогеничны?

—I usually look better on the othe side of the camera haha

—Как вы попали в индустрию фотографии?

—Had the opportunity to work with a company that does lifestyle photography, after a year I jumped to wedding photography with them and 1 year later I decided to work by myself.

—Как вы считаете, каковы самые важные составляющие хорошей фотографии?

—Good lightning, being able to control the light is key.

—Любите путешествовать?

—Of course, who doesn't! That's actually what approached me to photography! You will see a lot of traveling photos as well on my social media.

—Что в вашей профессии вам нравится больше всего?

—For the wedding couple there's always the doubt of how are the photos going to be, but looking at their reaction and excitement once they see them it's one of things to feel thankful for.

—Что в вашей профессии вам нравится меньше всего?

—Bridezillas haha or sometimes the maid of honor. I know, I know; they want everything to be perfect on the big day, but hey, you have to trust me on this one, let the art behind the lenses flow!

—Каким вы видите будущее фотографии?

—Hopefully better and better photographs, there's a little bit of doubt about photography and the upcoming technology, but I think the artsy element it's always going to be human, no matter what.

—Что делает жанр фотографии, в котором вы снимаете, особенным?

—It's more intimate, you get to know real people and as a photographer you have to become one with the wedding itself. Achieve that connection with groom and bride and also the guests.

—Как вы относитесь к критике?

—Photography as an art has been always very subjective, but there's something no one can deny; a good photo is a good photo! Even if you can't explain it. Also in photography you never stop learning, so I don't take criticism too serious, just take the best part of it and forget the rest!

—Есть ли в фотографии своя мода?

—Yes, the same as any other style of photography or even art; there's always gonna be tendencies, some may follow them, some may not and some may create them.

—По каким критериям клиенты должны выбирать своего фотографа?

—Read the bio, see their pictures and see if you really feel identified with that specific photographer, remember; is the best day of your life!

—Чего нельзя допускать при съемке?

—Not to be open to suggestions, I've seen a lot of photographers mounted on their egos, shooting their own style not paying attention to what the couple wants! Big mistake!

—Что обычные люди упускают из виду, в то время как фотограф может увидеть?

—It's hard to be in different places at the time, it's always good to count on a second camera to get that little details that can be missed for a bit of a sec while doing the "important shot".

—Что влияет на ценность фотографии? Из чего она складывается?

—Laughs, reactions, true feelings, a good photographer is able to capture the essence of the moment!

—Кого бы вы назвали символом XXI века?

—We live in an era of super individualism, anyone doing a little bit something for the goodness of everyone is a symbol!

—Кого бы вы хотели поснимать?

—Any couple in the search of genuine photographs, that ones that comes easy for everyone as there's a connection between couple and photographer.

—Есть ли у вас какие-то табу в работе?

—Photoshop. To make a photograph look the way it is "supposed to be" instead of showing the real thing!

—С кем вы хотели бы поснимать?

—I think Jim Carrey is one of the most interesting persons in the world, for me he sees life through different eyes than the average person.

—О чем вы беспокоитесь в первую очередь и почему?

—Sometimes technology can play tricks on you or even betray you, but as long as you are well prepared, there's nothing to worry about.

—Расскажите о самом сильном впечатлении в своей жизни.

—The present! I've always been to "easy going" to worry about the past, or future, just try to relax and enjoy the moment!

—Каким персонажем из мультфильма, книги или кино вы были бы и почему?

—Probably a captain of sci-fi movie, imagine to see all the stars and constellations and galaxies through that perspective.

—Кто вдохновляет вас и почему?

—Michael O'neill is one of my favorite photographers, he have had such amazing opportunities to shot super interesting people like Orson Welles, Steve Jobs, Scorsese and many Master Yoguis.

—Как вы определяете успех? Можно ли его измерить?

—Success is achieve your purpose, one step at a time. That your couples likes and thank for your work, that's how you know you've made it correctly!

—Что для вас важнее: любовь окружающих или уважение?

—It's easy to get liked, but not that easy to get respected. So to achieve that is the measure of it.

—Что вы берете с собой в путешествие и почему?

—My camera, is part of the essentials! Like; wallet, keys, camera, cellphone, right?

—Getting inspired by other photographer's work and some self-criticism.

—Как вы считаете, что вам следовало бы знать в первую очередь, когда вы начинали фотографировать?

—How to pay taxes! Hahaha isn't this one of the things that they never teach in school and are so necessary for the adult life?

—Следовало ли вашим родителям быть более (менее) строгими?

—Есть ли жизнь на других планетах?

—I think it's very selfish to think that we are the only ones in such a big universe.
