Fotograf Christian Fagerland

—Kako ste ušli u svet fotografije?

—I've always had a passion to create something. In photography I found a way to really create something meaningful. Especially in weddings, I get to create images that have a big value to the couple.

—Šta smatrate da su ključni elementi dobre fotografije?

—The photo has to reflect something real. If you smile because I've told you to, it's not a real smile, it's a forced one.A good photo often contains few elements (you and a clean background), good light and real emotion.

—Volite putovanja?

—I do! Then I can stop along the way and eat a big hamburger. mmmm

—Šta najviše volite u vezi sa svojim zanimanjem?

—To create something beautiful and meaningful

—Šta najmanje volite u vezi sa svojim zanimanjem?

—90% of photography is not actually taking photos. So I don't love some of the mundane tasks like accounting and stuff related to that.

—Kakva će biti budućnost fotografije?

—The more advanced the cameras become, the more technically correct the images will be. Less blur, less missed focus, more accurate colors and light.We humans want our art to be created by humans. This means there has to be some imperfections, or else it just looks to sterile and uninspiring. The future of photography will then be more and more about post prosessing. If the photographer have a 100% technically correct image, he or she can create something great of this in post.

—Kako podnosite kritiku?

—Pretty well. It might affect me as anyone, but if it's constructive I will appreciate it, so I might learn from it.

—Da li u fotografiji postoje trendovi?

—Now in 2020, there seem to be a global trend for over-warming the images. Some look so yellow I can almost feel the sun.I don't follow trends. I photograph weddings, and I don't want my clients too look at the images 20 years from now and get embarrassed over the crazy 2020-style.

—Šta treba da budu kriterijumi kada klijent bira fotografa?

—Get one you like the images of. Call them, do you like them still? Is this someone you would like to be close to a few hours on you biggest day ever?If you are on a tight budget, get a good photographer to photograph the ceremony and portraits, or just portraits, rather then a mediocre to cover the whole day.

—Šta treba izbegavati kod snimanja?

—Funny poses. I never ask you to do something "funny". If a friend of you say "heeyyy, wont you to hide behind the tree there and poke your heads out from the tree? that'll be funnnnnnn"No thank you.

—Koje najčešće neprimetne detalje primećuje fotograf?

—Grandparents interacting with grandchildren. #sweet

—Šta utiče na vrednost fotografije? Šta su njeni elementi?

—Moments. I want the couple to get images of moments. When you look at the image, you just remember how you felt that moment.

—Koga biste želeli da fotografišete?

—I don't think that way. I'm glad to photograph anyone!
