(Yervant) wedding and fashion photographer



Under construction


Yervant (wedding and fashion photographer)

I have heard of this famous wedding and fashion photographer before and also seen some of his photography on the net but never really payed much attention to his work

Wow! what have I been missing? it doesn't get much better than this

He was one of the first photographers to shoot his photography using digital cameras
with not a film camera in site

This is the gear that Yervant uses:

Cameras: Canon EOS 5D; Canon EOS-1Ds Mark II; Sony HDV Video Camera
Canon Lenses: 15mm fisheye; 24mm f/1.4L; 16-35mm f/2.8L; 24-70mm f/2.8L; 70-200mm f/2.8L IS; 85mm f/1.2L
Flash Gear: Canon Speedlite 580EX; Quantum Qflash; Lowel i-light video light; Bescor video light; Metz 45 flash

Yervant was born in Ethiopia, he is the son of royal photographer Hagop Zanazanian.  Yervant followed his father's footsteps in photography, mastered dark room techniques at a young age of 9, won his first award of excellence with a landscape image at the age of 11 


I know that photography is all about light and composition......................................................................................................................................................................................................................


Being one of the world's top phtographers I will find it difficult to emulate this kind if phtography,the majority of his shots I would assume have been set up with proper models and lighting......................................................................
































































Yervant studied at Mourat Raffael College in Venice Italy from the age of 13 to 17 where he was inspired by fine art and photography.
The Zanazanian family emigrated to Australia in 1975 and Yervant joined soon after and enrolled at The Photography College in Melbourne.  Yervant proclaimed he wanted to be a WEDDING photographer during his college years and he was told by his tutors to quit there and then as Wedding photography never required a college education. 
Nonetheless, Yervant graduated and set himself up as a 'Professional Wedding Photographer' Today Yervant's name is synonymous with the most influential photographers of our time.
