—Ano ang dapat na pamantayan ng isang customer sa pagpili ng photographer?

—First of all, it's important that the bride and groom identify themselves with the photographer and his work, the choice should be made by whether they consider he is the one who's worth recording their lifetime memories. Then, they should absolutely watch an entire wedding shot by the one they chose. I like being approached by future weds who know a thing or two about photography and who got their mind set on what they really want.

—Paano ka nagsimula sa industriya ng photography?

—I started taking pictures in 2000 and shooting weddings in 2008. At first, I didn't want to do weddings, I thought it would diminish my work. But I started anyway and found the most challenging environment, I discovered that no matter what type of photography you do, you can always reinvent yourself and find new ways to tell a story. Especially when you meet extraordinary people all the time :)

—Ikaw ba ay photogenic?

—I consider I ain't, but it so happens that on occasion some other photographer catches the good/bright sight of me.

—Ano ang mga mahahalagang bahagi ng isang magandang larawan sa iyong opinyon?

—First & foremost, the people involved and their mood (if you're shooting people), then the light (I began ”seeing” the light after years of shooting) and the decisive moment. I don't agree that the quality of a photograph is not important, but it indeed comes in second after the feelings it produces.

—Mahilig ka ba maglakbay?

—So much that if it would be possible I would be traveling all the time.

—Ano ang pinakagusto mo sa iyong propesyon?

—The diversity – today I'm shooting a wedding, tomorrow a baptism, after tomorrow a concert, then a family portrait, a corporate event or some landscape. It's what keeps me connected all the time.

—Ano ang hindi mo gusto sa iyong propesyon?

—Having too much to edit.

—Paano ka tumatanggap ng pagpuna?

—I'm all in for constructive criticism, don't like destructive one. That's why we're here on My Wed, right? To constantly learn from other photographers and document ourselves about where we are as wedding photographers. I, for one, would like to hear more criticism about my work and where to improve. Here's an idea: you could implement a section where each photographer could post one photo/week for critique :D

—Ano ang mga bagay na dapat iwasan kapag kumukuha ng larawan?

—Getting in front of the photographer.

—Ano ang magiging kinabukasan ng photography?

—I think it is constantly evolving and that we'll always see changes for the good. We'll always have trends that come and go, the important thing is to know who you are and do what you really like, not necessarily follow the hype.

—Ano ang espesyal sa kategorya ng photography kung saan ka dalubhasa?

—Oh, everything about it is special. I must admit I suffer when someone refers to it as a banality, thinking that ”real artists” don't do wedding photos. Special is meeting new people, seeing new places or facing new challenges. Besides war photography, I find it the most challenging type, you get to meet all kinds of situations during one day: different light every minute, you get to shoot outdoors and indoors, in plain sun or in the shadow of a tree/building, inside a cave or on a mountain top etc. etc. Need I say more?

—Unang una sa lahat - sino ang papangalanan mo na pinakamahusay na photographer sa Granada? :)

—The best photographer doesn't exist, only styles! Today there are so many photographers, and each one has their own style. As long as you work hard to constantly grow and push yourself then you will be happy, your clients will be happy and you will become a great photographer.

—Ano ang dapat na pamantayan ng isang customer sa pagpili ng photographer?

—To select the photographer via his/her work and style and not the price, with out forgetting that they must connect.

—Paano ka nagsimula sa industriya ng photography?

—You could say that it was hidden away inside me for a long time. Without realising I have always had a camera to hand since I was little. Love my dads Canon 650 EOS and always used to take it off his hands. Never thought that it would turn out to be something that I loved doing.

—Ikaw ba ay photogenic?

—To be honest, no not really. That is why I hide behind the camera :P

—Ano ang mga mahahalagang bahagi ng isang magandang larawan sa iyong opinyon?

—A good photo has to have life in it. If a photo does not have a penetrating look, or the calmness of a smile, then for me that photo is not natural enough and that is what I always look for in my wedding photos.

—Mahilig ka ba maglakbay?

—I love new and unknown territories, this make you push your skills and ideas to the limits and keeps you improving. I have several trips lined up this year and cant wait to work somewhere new. And if it is for vacactional purpose, then without a doubt, but I can assure you that my camera will never leave my side.

—Ano ang pinakagusto mo sa iyong propesyon?

—The reaction when I hand my work in and the happiness it brings. I will love photography no matter what, and will always love it no matter what people say about my work. All photographers want to exceed their expectations, improve, update themselves, master new techniques, and we are very perfectionist when it comes down to our own work, so it is a fantastic feeling when others congratulate you on your efforts.

—Ano ang hindi mo gusto sa iyong propesyon?

—Nothing, I came from a financial work environment with a stressful background to something that I dreamt about doing for a long time. And when you manage to do something you dream about there will be some down moments but you remember what you are doing and why you are doing it, and that motivating crawls right back in and you thrive again.

—Paano ka tumatanggap ng pagpuna?

—Constructive criticism helps me improve, mature and evolve. There is always a positive way of looking at things, and criticism can be broken down and used in a positive manner.

—Ano ang magiging kinabukasan ng photography?

—Well who knows, it is constantly changing and there are so many different styles and techniques to choose from. But hopefully, it will become less fictional and more natural.

—Ano ang mga bagay na dapat iwasan kapag kumukuha ng larawan?

—Pressure on the bride and groom. In order to take the best and most natural shots we need the bride and groom to be as relaxed as possible. And also mobile and table devises. There are numerous of occasions when the groom could not see the bride walking down the isle due to the amount of people leaning out with their phones and tables.

—Maaari ka bang magbigay ng mga tip para sa mga photographer na nagsisimula pa lamang?
