Fotografas Franklin Balzan

—Ar esate fotogeniškas?

—I wouldn't say so. I am usually the one behind the camera and do not enjoy being seen to much.

—Kaip jūs atsiradote fotografijos industrijoje?

—It was a natural evolution... I love street photography, fashion and portrait and therefore love shooting wedding photography in my artsy-journalistic style.

—Jūsų nuomone, kokie yra svarbiausi geros nuotraukos komponentai?

—Especially for wedding photography, certainly the photo must convey emotion and have a story to tell. Apart from these two aspects then, there are also the technical aspects such as lighting and composition.

—Ohh yes :)

—Kas šioje profesijoje Jums patinka labiausiai?

—Kas šioje profesijoje Jums patinka mažiausiai?

—The headache of possibly not being able to make it to the wedding due to some illness or something.

—Kokia bus fotografijos ateitis?

—Mirrorless cameras are already with us – their technology has already catched with their heavier DSLR counterparts.

—Kuo ypatingas fotografijos žanras, kuriame jūs specializuojatės?

—Emotions and the once in a lifetime event, which everyone has been preparing so much to.

—Kokie turėtų būti kliento kriterijai, kad pasirinkti fotografą?

—The artistic style of the photo – colour, tone, framing.

—Kokių dalykų turi būti vengiama fotografuojant?

—Relaxing! One must keep concentrated till the last seconds of a wedding.

—Kokias detales, kurios paprastai būna nepastebėtos, gali pastebėti fotografas?
