AS A PHOTOGRAPHER, I HAVE THE HONOR TO MEET UNIQUE PEOPLE. THIS IS INA!
GREAT ACRO BALLERINA AND GOOD MAN
_We will not lie. Taking such a photo is extremely difficult.
WHY?
First you need to find a professional who will believe you._
_Before that, your brain needs to create scenarios for the session - movements, places and get to know the sport you are going to shoot.
Then comes the contact with the athlete._
You need to explain why you want such photos and especially how they will be different from the others. In this case, I decided to experiment in a harsh urban environment.
_There aren't many sports sessions on the streets, because the dancers do what they do in halls, studios and stages. This idea of mine was greeted with enthusiasm by Ina.
What happiness!_
_We did a total of 3 sessions with her in a few months. These meetings were a brutal experience for me.
WHAT DOES ACRO BALLERINA MEAN?_
It is a mixture of acrobatics and ballet. Simply put, these crazy people make brutal ballet moves in the air. Abnormal work, huh?
After the first session, I realized that my device is not suitable for such fast people because of the focus.
I immediately went to the store, leaving BGN 4,000 for a new one with two lenses. Really, the shutter speed should not fall below 1/500, and the aperture somewhere around 3.
_Ina and I are friends now. I dare say because of photography. I love this art and no matter how much the business tries to displace the mobile phones, it can't happen. No one can take such pictures with a phone!
POINT!_
This is one of my favorite photos! I had decided to do something different, but I just saw this shot in my head, we tried about 7 times and you see the result.
Another important fact for this type of photos is the maximum avoidance of injuries and accidents. I am always the first to inspect the places where I want to place my models. If they can withstand 130 kilograms, then everything is fine. Okay, I'll lose weight. Sometime...
And how to choose places for such photos?
If you like an urban environment, it is best to take the ballerina by the hand and walk the main streets in your city. Once you are a photographer, you will quickly like where and how. Remember that she is the main protagonist in your photography! The background is blurred, giving an urban context.
THANK YOU FOR SHARING THESE EMOTIONS!
