Die russische Fotografin Anastasia Fursova, geb. 1986 in Minsk, Weissrussland, studierte an der Belarusian Staatsuniversität in Minsk und an der Europäischen Humanitäre Universität in Vilnius/Litauen. Ihre fantastischen Bildwerke sprechen für sich, doch in einem Gespräch konnten wir noch einiges über Anastasia und ihre Berufung erfahren.
Elle:
How long have you been shooting and how did you get your start on photography? Are you self-taught or did you have any formal photography education?
Anastasia Fursova:
I have been shooting about 3 years, just bought my first simple camera Canon 350D and started. I am self-taught.
Elle:
Can you describe a day in the life of Anastasia Fursova? Tell me about your average day.
Anastasia Fursova:
I get up early and go to work. I am a web-designer and work in a Moscow digital agency. But live in a small country Belarus. I Draw for such companies like McDonalds, MasterCard, Jameson, HavanaClub, Procter&Gamble, Hieneken, Wella and many other. But photography is very personal for me. It helps me to express my feelings and emotions.
Elle:
Besides your camera, what is a must-have at each of your sessions?
Anastasia Fursova:
Emotions, big heart and of course love.
Elle:
Tell us about your technical process and what kind of equipment do you use?
Anastasia Fursova:
I use canon 5d mark 2 and many different lenses (Canon 24-70mm, Canon 100mm macro and others)
First of all i find the idea in my mind, then i discuss it with my team (stylist, make up artists, decorators ..).Then i choose a model. It is very important. And then I fail in the imagination and realize our idea. After that i draw each photo in photoshop. Beacuse in origin camera doesn’t give me the right colors …
Elle:
What are the very best and worst lessons you learned in the business?
Anastasia Fursova:
All people are different, somebody love your work, but somebody not.
Elle:
Any current or future projects that you could tell us about?
Anastasia Fursova:
I’ve decided to do more art in my pictures. More expressive and deep, maybe kind of psychedelic.
Elle:
Anything you wanna say to us? Shoutouts?
Anastasia Fursova:
I am very happy that you found me and will be glad if you tell the world about me.
Elle:
большое спасибо!!!
