Фотограф Siemenjov Galdes

—Чи ви фотогенічні?

—Only when I am not trying to be :)

—Як ви опинилися у галузі фотографії?

—By pure coincidence and being in the right place at the right time. My first wedding was in 2012 and the rest as they say is history.

—Якими, на вашу думку, є найголовніші складові гарної фотографії?

—Some old school photographers would say technique, composition, verticles etc. I think all the mentioned techniques are important however the moment and the framing for me are key.

—Чи любите ви подорожувати?

—I can't get enough of it ;)

—Що вам більш за все подобається у вашій професії?

—Travelling, meeting new people and being able to tell a story through pictures.

—Що вам менш за все подобається у вашій професії?

—To be honest I never thought much about this. In all fairness I can't think of anything else except the long hours.

—Яким буде майбутнє фотографії?

—Wedding photography is increasingly becoming more expressive and photographers around the world have pushed the bounderies and the art to scary new heights. I cannot say, though I am really curious to find out.

—Що робить жанр фотографії, в якому ви знімаєте, особливим?

—Emotions! Not all weddings have it, but the ones who do, make it special beyond words.

—Як ви справляєтеся з критикою?

—There is always something new to learn and good solid constructive criticism helps us become better and challange our routines. I am always eager to get feedback and I hope I can keep improving upon it.

—Чи є якісь тренди у фотографії?

—ohhh yes! I think you see changing trends mostly depending on the country and continent.

—Якими для клієнта повинні бути критерії вибору фотографа?

—I can answer this because I myself was a groom not long ago. I looked for a photographer who cares, someone who knows documentary photography and someone that is not afraid to get the best out of us on the wedding day. We actually enjoyed our day more thanks to the photographer we chose! I knew exactly what he would deliver before I even booked him.

—Чого слід уникати при фотозйомці?

—Forget your phone, e-mails, messages and all distractions. Most importantly avoid going un-prepared.
