Tallinn, Estonija
Intervju
-
—Šta smatrate da su ključni elementi dobre fotografije?
—Quality, good light, but first and foremost emotion!
-
—Volite putovanja?
—Absolutely!
-
—Šta najviše volite u vezi sa svojim zanimanjem?
—It's never the same, it's always somewhat challenging, so I never get bored, but I mostly love the fact that I can see how I improve myself with every single photograph.
-
—Šta najmanje volite u vezi sa svojim zanimanjem?
—Sometimes it's the endless hours of photo editing.
-
—Kakva će biti budućnost fotografije?
—Too insane to imagine.
-
—Šta je posebno kod vrste fotografije koja je vaša specijalnost?
—I love capturing people's real emotions. My photoshoots involve short walks, dancing, playfullness, movement etc. All of it makes it so much more real and special.
-
—Kako podnosite kritiku?
—At frst I laugh, cry, hate all at the same time for a brief second and then I try to understand the critizism, is it a reliable source to change something, to learn from it and is it something I benefit from.
Because sometimes criticism comes from clients who simply want to haggle with price. -
—Šta treba da budu kriterijumi kada klijent bira fotografa?
—Portfolio is a big part of it, but make sure you like the person!Now matter how well a photographer offers you guidance or ideas during the photo shoot, if you don't feel comfortable with them, you won't get the desired result.
-
—Šta treba izbegavati kod snimanja?
—Starting to shoot from minute 1. If I have new clients, I take 10 minutes to walk to the destination and simply chat. With those ten minutes they forget that I am a stranger and real peronalities and emotions start to surface.
-
—Koje najčešće neprimetne detalje primećuje fotograf?
—I always notice bad posture or tension. I have my own little tricks to eliminate such things.
-
—Sa kim biste želeli da sarađujete?
—Rankin, I'd be happy to just look at him shoot too.

You measure it with your own happiness. -

—Camera and drone gear. I don't think I need to explain.
-
—Kako se edukujete da biste bolje fotografisali?

-
—Da li verujete u tradicionalne uloge muškaraca i žena?
—What's traditional? What does it mean? Traditions are different all over the world, they mostly come into our lives trhough media, through other people or from a different timeframe. If people and pretty much everything else evolve with time, why shouldn't the roles for men and women. So no, I do not believe in them in a way that makes the media a clickmagnet nowadays. I trust in nature and I believe men and women are different, they should celebrate it, but their right to do things have to be equal!

If you mess it up, do it again.
Have a back up plan.
PRACTICE -
