Fotograf Franklin Balzan

—Sunteți fotogenic?

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

—Cum ați ajuns în industria fotografiei?

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

—Care sunt cele mai importante componente ale unei fotografii bune, după părerea dvs?

—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.

—Vă place să călătoriți?

—Ohh yes :)

—Ce vă place cel mai mult la profesia dvs?

—Moving from place to place, meeting new people and creating art.

—Ce vă place cel mai puțin la profesia dvs?

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

—Care va fi viitorul fotografiei?

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

—Ce este special la genul de fotografie în care sunteți specializat?

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

—Cum răspundeți criticilor?

—Positively, as it helps me improve. Infact it helps me see things which otherwise I would not have noted.

—Există tendințe în fotografia?

—It seems most photographers are moving towards a journalistic fastpaced style.

—Care ar trebui să fie criteriile după care un client să aleagă un fotograf?

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

—Ce lucruri sunt complet nepermise când fotografiați?

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

—Ce detalii de obicei neobservate de alții pot fi observate de un fotograf?

—Geometries, reflections, frames.

—Cu cine ați vrea să faceți fotografii?

—Roberto Valenzuela and Livio Lacurre certainly.
