Digital Wedding Forum - Featured Member
I was very excited to have recently been chosen as the featured member of the Digital Wedding Forum. This forum has over 5000 professional photographers as members from all over the world including the elite in our field. This was quite a surprise and an honor. Check out the interview below.
DWF Featured Member - Edward Ross
Location - Calgary Canada
Business Name - Edward Ross Photography
Years in Business - 17

PM - Contact Edward
DWF - Let's start off with a little bio, tell us a little bit about yourself.
Edward - Cool, my favorite thing:)
I have been a photographer all of my grown up life, and have photographed over 800 weddings so far. I love traveling and experiencing new places, meeting new people and learning as much about the world as I can. I have been married for almost 9 years, and have two amazing boys aged five and one. I play hockey, ski when I can and generally like a good party. I try to take each day as it comes, and don't usually get to stressed out about life. To be honest, I'm pretty much living my dream.
DWF - How did you become a wedding photographer?
Edward - I was in college studying photojournalism, and ended up mentoring with a successful studio. I worked doing all kinds of odd jobs for them including assembling albums and prints, to photofinishing and selling. I worked towards buying my first medium format camera, and by the end of that summer I was nervously shooting weddings on my own. I never thought that would be my career focus, but the more I did it, the more I fell in love with the process and the people.
DWF- Who or what inspires you as an artist?
Edward - So many people have influenced me as an artist, including Monte Zucker, Yervant, Joe Buissink, and Jerry Ghionis on the wedding scene. I love Jesh de Rox's philosophy of life, and I am also drawn to the fashion work of Richard Avedon and the weirdness and genius of David Lachappelle. I appreciate Art Wolfe landscape and natural work a great deal as well.
I think you can always learn from others no matter what level you have achieved in your own work. I am really influenced by life and the intricacy of relationships between people, which is why I am so drawn to weddings. No other single day ties the multitude of relationships people have in their lives together like a wedding.
DWF- If we needed a photographer today why would we book you? What makes you unique?
Edward - I always try to make my focus relationship based. That means I really try to get to know my clients very well, so that I can bring out the truthiness in their relationship. (Thanks Colbert.) I shoot all of my weddings with no time or location limits so that I can tell the entire story. I am easy to get along with, and have a lot of experience in wedding photography. I bring a lot of passion to what I do, and I really do want the very best for my clients.
DWF- If you had to pick a favorite "Tool of the Trade" what would it be? and why?
Edward - It is a bit cliche, but my favorite tool is "light". It really guides everything about my photography, and I try to use it as creatively as possible. Every decision I make about my lenses, flashes or otherwise is made based on the light in the situation.
DWF - Care to share your favorite photograph? and tell us a bit about it?
Edward - This is always changing, but my favorite photo right now is called "Life in Balance". It was created during a bridal session right before Christmas, and I feel it ties the mood of the couple, the light and compositional elements together very well. Tomorrow it may be something new.
DWF - How about some final words to live by?
Edward - For me this is simple. Always look forward.
Learn from the past, but don't live in it. As long as you keep moving in the direction you are aiming for eventually you will get there.
Oh, and enjoy the journey along the way.

I just returned from Las Vegas, where I had a great time at the WPPI ( Wedding and Portrait Photographers International) Convention. Ten Thousand Photographers from all over the world attend this spectacular event, and It was very cool just to hang out and get to know some of them better. This year I entered prints into the annual competition and was thrilled to have 7 prints win Awards of Excellence and hang in the Main Gallery! . I also did a couple very cool fashion wedding shoots while I was there, and will be posting those soon.
