00:00:06.540 --> 00:00:11.456
My first weddings I have photographed just for fun.

00:00:11.456 --> 00:00:15.340
I have been already photographing professionally before,

00:00:15.340 --> 00:00:18.833
but I have noticed that as a photographer,

00:00:18.833 --> 00:00:23.166
especially photographing wedding I can be most creative.

00:00:23.166 --> 00:00:26.162
As a wedding photographer I am photographing people,

00:00:26.162 --> 00:00:30.920
architecture, objects and, mostly, documentary.

00:00:33.090 --> 00:00:37.308
For me, wedding photography is definitely a creative discipline.

00:00:37.308 --> 00:00:41.032
Most important is the photographer’s individual vision,

00:00:41.032 --> 00:00:46.581
the ability to notice details, overseen by the others.

00:00:46.581 --> 00:00:50.236
On the other side, for me it is not art for art's sake.

00:00:50.236 --> 00:00:53.825
For me it is primarily about the couple

00:00:53.825 --> 00:00:57.929
and in my pictures I want to show these concrete people

00:00:57.929 --> 00:01:00.583
not only from their chocolate side,

00:01:00.583 --> 00:01:05.372
but also as natural and authentic, as possible.

00:01:09.096 --> 00:01:14.534
Modern wedding photography has to my mind (besides the common term)

00:01:14.534 --> 00:01:19.014
little to do with the wedding photography from the time of our parents.

00:01:19.014 --> 00:01:23.610
It is not only about all these obligatory motives

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,

00:01:30.306 --> 00:01:33.090
it is about the complete story,

00:01:33.090 --> 00:01:37.597
from getting ready till the reception late in the evening.

00:01:40.550 --> 00:01:45.942
For me the most important is the trust,

00:01:45.942 --> 00:01:48.618
which I have to win very quickly,

00:01:48.618 --> 00:01:52.743
it is about common understanding with the people I am photographing

00:01:52.743 --> 00:01:55.917
and about having fun together.

00:01:58.625 --> 00:02:02.997
A considerable amount of my work is creative postproduction.

00:02:02.997 --> 00:02:06.861
During this process I can intensify the mood and the atmosphere of the photo,

00:02:06.861 --> 00:02:11.543
turning good raw pictures into creative pieces of art.

00:02:11.543 --> 00:02:13.451
For the most couples

00:02:13.451 --> 00:02:18.209
I then create with these results a beautiful, individually designed wedding album.

00:03:11.171 --> 00:03:14.341
“The pictures are just perfect, they are gigantic!

00:03:14.341 --> 00:03:16.634
I am absolutely thrilled. Really,

00:03:16.634 --> 00:03:21.459
I have rarely seen such beautiful photos of this couple.

00:03:21.459 --> 00:03:25.539
When our son gets married, we’ll book you again,

00:03:25.539 --> 00:03:29.874
we have already clear about that.

00:03:29.874 --> 00:03:33.065
We’ll do it again because it is worth every cent,

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.”

00:03:37.180 --> 00:03:41.718
It is a beautiful feeling to make people happy.

00:03:41.718 --> 00:03:47.511
I get it when I present my pictures and albums to the couple.

00:03:47.511 --> 00:03:51.950
I see how happy they are and it makes me happy.

00:03:51.950 --> 00:03:54.708
This is the best part of my job.
