Armenian President's Photographer Told the Stories of Famous Photos Taken in Sochi
The photo of the president of Armenia and the president of Azerbaijan was widely spread among Armenian social network users. It was taken on October 11 during the CIS summit in Sochi, Russia.
In Sochi Armenian President's personal photographer Davit Hakobyan took one more photo which is being widely used in the Kazakh media. It is the photo of Kazakhstan's President Nursultan Nazarbayev. Hakobyan said that initially he was planning to take a photo of Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan, but the shot of Nazarbayev came out more successful, "Armenpress" reports.
"When taking a picture I first of all pay attention to the lighting, the background and the shot. I wanted to take a photo of my president, but I couldn't. Only Nazarbayev turned out good. This was the kind of shot that I wanted to have initially. The president wasn’t looking at me, 50 photographers were waiting for the leaders to enter the hall, and he wasn’t looking at me," Hakobyan said.
