攝影師 Alex Constantinescu

—首先─您認為誰是布加勒斯特, 羅馬尼亞最優秀的攝影師呢？ :)

—When it comes to any artistic approach, I don't consider there is a best person who does that as there are many styles to choose from. There are a few whom I appreciate, none is best, but all are good.

—您上相嗎？

—Only when I don't know I'm being photographed.

—您如何開始從事攝影行業？

—My passion for portraits has started in high school. At one point it was just the natural course of action.

—您認為一張好照片裡最重要的元素有哪些？

—I believe it is more important the message relayed by the photographer and the way it reaches the audience, rather than how a photo looks.

—您熱愛旅行嗎？

—Does whiskey taste better as it ages?

—您最喜歡這個職業的哪個部分？

—The moment when people I work with look at their portrait I just took and go: "WHOW!"

—您最不喜歡這個職業的哪個部分？

—I believe every artist is the most critical person towards themselves. So yes, there are plenty. But if there weren't, we wouldn't evolve and get better.

—您擅長的攝影類型有什麼特別之處？

—The emotions are real.

—您如何應對批評？

—Depends on who is it coming from and if they have a valid argument or not.

—客戶選擇攝影師的標準有哪些？

—I believe it is very important to have a balance between shooting and editing style, and similar lifestyle values and principles.

—通常不會被注意，但攝影師卻能留意的細節有哪些呢？

—While most photographers are paying attention to the bride and groom, I also take peaks at the guests to catch a proud smile of the parents, grandma's tears of joy and pure cheekiness of the children attending.

—I always try today to be a little better than yesterday. For me that is enough.

—您如何定義成功？您會怎麼衡量它？

—I don't think there is a quantifiable method for success. Once we get to whatever moment we believed we could consider ourselves successful, it will change into something else. As long as we strive to be better in life, I believe it is a successful strategy.

—您是希望被喜愛或是被景仰呢？
