Interaction with Atul Kasbekar
Q1) What inspires you as a photographer?
It is the love of photography that is ever growing every single day and every moment. Even if I photoshoot a person a hundredth time, I don't get bored. This is because the mood of a person is different at different moments. I get excited every moment I photoshoot.
Q2) What makes a good photograph stand out from the average?
An image if appeals and looks better than others, it comes out as a photograph. I cannot say a photograph is better than the others. Different photographs appeal to different people at different levels. Not everybody love or hate it. There is a personal interpretation of a photograph that happens. People may have different reactions to different photographs.
Advertising photographs that I do has many high quality inputs and we get high quality output. Inputs would be the costume of the model, make up, hair style. Aesthetics should be good. If the inputs are technically flawless and of high quality, the photograph would be good.
Q3) What factors you consider to decide a destination for a Kingfisher Calendar Photoshoot?
I can only give recommendations. The kind of popularity and mileage we get through the Kingfisher calendar photoshoot is good enough to decide destinations. We get lots of offers from around the world. We prefer to shoot during the month of September when winters are beginning and locations are less crowded.It is easier to do a photoshoot during this time because the weather is neither hot nor humid and make up lasts longer.
Kingfisher calendar 2015 that we did last year was shot at Turkey which was a great location with beautiful landscapes and sceneries.
Q4) As I see Kingfisher calendar, 2015, appropriate attention is provided to the background as well as model. How do you get a knack of which model is to be photo shot at which location?
Kingfisher calendar photoshoot is a fully planned out event. We give lots of trials for every model. There are lots of technicalities involved. Models give trials with multiple costumes , hair styles, makeup etc. When everything comes out the best, then is a perfect photograph.
