Alla domanda: quale consiglio daresti a un giovane che spera in un futuro nel mondo della fotografia?
Jason Smith risponde: I think that to be a photographer is to be somebody who can learn the technical aspects quite easily. Photography is a technical exercise, is very straightforward.What is interesting about photography is what you shoot, not how you shoot it.So, for me, my obsession, my interest is contemporary artists, so that’s what I do. So I think, if you’re a writer, you are picking the subject matter that you are interested in writing about.It’s very difficult to take a picture of something that you don’t care about, so I care about what it is that I am taking pictures of, and I think that shows, if you take pictures of something you don’t care about, how can we make a good picture. So, you should find… think about what it is that you love and you want to do and you want to investigate and that is the advice for a photographer, not to get obsessive about technical matters, of course it is important, but it is really the content more than it is the technical, to me.
