1
00:00:06,540 --> 00:00:11,456
My first weddings I have photographed just for fun.

2
00:00:11,456 --> 00:00:15,340
I have been already photographing professionally before,

3
00:00:15,340 --> 00:00:18,833
but I have noticed that as a photographer,

4
00:00:18,833 --> 00:00:23,166
especially photographing wedding I can be most creative.

5
00:00:23,166 --> 00:00:26,162
As a wedding photographer I am photographing people,

6
00:00:26,162 --> 00:00:30,920
architecture, objects and, mostly, documentary.

7
00:00:33,090 --> 00:00:37,308
For me, wedding photography is definitely a creative discipline.

8
00:00:37,308 --> 00:00:41,032
Most important is the photographer’s individual vision,

9
00:00:41,032 --> 00:00:46,581
the ability to notice details, overseen by the others.

10
00:00:46,581 --> 00:00:50,236
On the other side, for me it is not art for art's sake.

11
00:00:50,236 --> 00:00:53,825
For me it is primarily about the couple

12
00:00:53,825 --> 00:00:57,929
and in my pictures I want to show these concrete people

13
00:00:57,929 --> 00:01:00,583
not only from their chocolate side,

14
00:01:00,583 --> 00:01:05,372
but also as natural and authentic, as possible.

15
00:01:09,096 --> 00:01:14,534
Modern wedding photography has to my mind (besides the common term)

16
00:01:14,534 --> 00:01:19,014
little to do with the wedding photography from the time of our parents.

17
00:01:19,014 --> 00:01:23,610
It is not only about all these obligatory motives

18
00:01:23,610 --> 00:01:30,306
like the picture in front of the altar, portrait near the tree and rings on the bride’s bouquet anymore,

19
00:01:30,306 --> 00:01:33,090
it is about the complete story,

20
00:01:33,090 --> 00:01:37,597
from getting ready till the reception late in the evening.

21
00:01:40,550 --> 00:01:45,942
For me the most important is the trust,

22
00:01:45,942 --> 00:01:48,618
which I have to win very quickly,

23
00:01:48,618 --> 00:01:52,743
it is about common understanding with the people I am photographing

24
00:01:52,743 --> 00:01:55,917
and about having fun together.

25
00:01:58,625 --> 00:02:02,997
A considerable amount of my work is creative postproduction.

26
00:02:02,997 --> 00:02:06,861
During this process I can intensify the mood and the atmosphere of the photo,

27
00:02:06,861 --> 00:02:11,543
turning good raw pictures into creative pieces of art.

28
00:02:11,543 --> 00:02:13,451
For the most couples

29
00:02:13,451 --> 00:02:18,209
I then create with these results a beautiful, individually designed wedding album.

30
00:03:11,171 --> 00:03:14,341
“The pictures are just perfect, they are gigantic!

31
00:03:14,341 --> 00:03:16,634
I am absolutely thrilled. Really,

32
00:03:16,634 --> 00:03:21,459
I have rarely seen such beautiful photos of this couple.

33
00:03:21,459 --> 00:03:25,539
When our son gets married, we’ll book you again,

34
00:03:25,539 --> 00:03:29,874
we have already clear about that.

35
00:03:29,874 --> 00:03:33,065
We’ll do it again because it is worth every cent,

36
00:03:33,065 --> 00:03:36,549
it is a precious memory for the lifetime and there is no second chance for this motive.”

37
00:03:37,180 --> 00:03:41,718
It is a beautiful feeling to make people happy.

38
00:03:41,718 --> 00:03:47,511
I get it when I present my pictures and albums to the couple.

39
00:03:47,511 --> 00:03:51,950
I see how happy they are and it makes me happy.

40
00:03:51,950 --> 00:03:54,708
This is the best part of my job.
