Photographer Christian Fagerland

—Paano ka nagsimula sa industriya ng photography?

—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.

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

—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.

—Mahilig ka ba maglakbay?

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

—Ano ang pinakagusto mo sa iyong propesyon?

—To create something beautiful and meaningful

—Ano ang hindi mo gusto sa iyong propesyon?

—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.

—Ano ang magiging kinabukasan ng photography?

—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.

—Paano ka tumatanggap ng pagpuna?

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

—Mayroon bang mga trend ang photography?

—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.

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

—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.

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

—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.

—Ano ang mga detalye na kadalasan ay hindi napapansin na napapansin ng photographer?

—Grandparents interacting with grandchildren. #sweet

—Ano ang mga umiimpluwensya sa kahalagahan ng isang larawan? Ano ang mga element nito?

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

—Sino ang gusto mong kuhaan?

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