摄影师Erica Bader

—您上相吗？

—I wouldn't consider myself naturally photogenic but I'm comfortable around cameras and I do know which angles are good and which ones are no no's!

—您是如何进入摄影行业的？

—I totally just fell into it in college. I was an art major with no real direction but I loved the photography classes! My professor asked me if I'd be interested in helping out a wedding photographer friend of his and I found out at that first wedding that this would be an amazing career for me!

—在您看来，一张好的照片最重要的组成部分有哪些？

—Truth is #1 in my opinion. If the photo is totally fake, staged or doesn't say anything then its nearly worthless in my opinion. After that, light and composition are king!

—您专长的摄影风格有什么特别？

—Wedding photography is different than anything else because everything moves so FAST! You have to master so many skills, macro, still life, architectural and of course portrait! It also doesn't hurt to be educated in the right gear such as off camera lighting so you can capture a beautiful moment even in the worst lighting conditions.

—客户选择摄影师时应该遵循什么标准？

—First of all you should be able to look at a photographer's portfolio and imagine yourself in their photos. Secondly, when you meet the photographer, you really need to click. You'll spend one of the most important days of your life with this person and you definitely don't want to be annoyed or uncomfortable around that person.

—您想要为谁拍摄？

—Happy people! Always looking for the happy people!

—结婚之后生活的质量高吗？

—Wait, what kind of a question is this? OF COURSE! My husband and I just celebrated our 10th anniversary and we've done so much life together. We've traveled the world, built our careers, failed in real estate, and most excitedly, made a baby!

—您有最喜欢的玩笑吗？请告诉我们。

—My favorite joke is really long and involved a Jewish samurai and circumcision... not sure if its totally PC...
