Q 1: Photography is an ever-changing industry with great pressure. What was your initial intention in choosing photography?

I think there are only two words in life: choice. Now life is stressful and fast-paced, and everyone is forced to choose. I think it is not easy for me to stick to my original dream. I come from a small place, where I am not allowed to have too many opportunities and dreams, but I have not given up and have been studying and working hard. I have always dreamed of becoming a professional photographer, traveling around the world with a SLR and my original dream, leaving my footprints in every corner. Record the most beautiful moment for everyone with good intentions.

Q2: You have worked in the photography industry for 7 years. What are your main concerns now?

I prefer a concise and documentary style. Because many photos now have to be retouched by "millions of retouchers", the beauty of things themselves is often ignored. I prefer to shoot with natural light, because it can not only show the true state of the subject, but also discover the beauty of "him" in this true state. I also like taking pictures of people very much. Everyone has their own unique beauty. Business is mainly to do business and commercial product shooting; (including the planning and shooting of computer and mobile phone products) business meetings and event photography; Design and shoot company and personal image photos.

But no matter what kind of film you shoot, you must have the spirit of craftsmanship and strive for Excellence; In fact, it is not your ability that makes you, but your responsibility that makes you. In this industry, even if I don't do it seriously, I can sometimes hand in films, but my sense of responsibility will make me have strict standards for myself, and sometimes I even swear at myself. In order to take a good photo, it may take two or three days to choose the best one. Only in this way can we hand over satisfactory answers for the trust of our own hearts and partners, and we can also clear our names.

Q3: You have worked in the photography industry for so many years. Do you have anything to share with us?

I like shooting subjects close to life and around me. I sincerely hope that all professional photographers have decided on a topic, and they must hold their breath, stick to it more and accumulate more. No perfunctory, no will, every shot is regarded as the best work, you should have this attitude, rather than shouting, it is better to show. With a sense of mission, make full preparations for every shot. In fact, every photographer is a loner on the road of photography. He should not only endure boredom, but also remain lonely, and regard photography as an experience of self-precipitation and accumulation. Will eventually become a better self!
