Red carpet photographer Erlend Štaub, who has also been the Tallinn Black Nights Film Festival official photographer for several years, spends his days at glamorous parties, socialising and taking pictures. Then he spends his nights working on these pictures to deliver them the next morning. He is very much in demand and his talents as a photographer are also highly appreciated abroad.
He has been attending the Cannes International Film Festival for fifteen years in a row. It is a hard job that requires social skills and great physical strength. Part of his success is to find out “where is the line when people start feeling great”.
