How did I shoot a five-star hotel?

Photographers often give people the first impression of his works. After the accumulation of time and grasping the aesthetic context, each photographer's works will have a different look and use the lens to interpret his own style. The current orientation of commercial photography in Wang Xiaofei is: food photography+environmental photography. The shooting contents of the hotel mainly include the hotel lobby, guest rooms, restaurants, bars, banquet halls, conference rooms, business centers, gymnasiums, swimming pools and hotel appearances. The process of shooting the hotel: setting the environment-cleaning-lighting-filling the light-shooting-real shooting. Customers have their own understanding of photos and can see whether the photographer's style is suitable for their hotel. Photographers need to take into account the style and artistic requirements of hotel groups when shooting hotels. I am basically consistent with the requirements of international hotels group in shooting, emphasizing simple pictures, positive framing and composition, and soft color contrast. In terms of equipment, it used to be a 4*5 landline reverse film, but now it is almost all digital photos. Commercial photographers generally have assistants, and hotel projects also need assistants. The job of the photography assistant is mainly responsible for the lighting arrangement on my side. I will tell them the location and intensity of the light I need. They came to install the wires. Make a shooting plan in advance, arrange the time, and arrange it as well as possible in every shooting environment at every time. Hotel photography is different from architectural photography. The advantage of an architectural photographer is his understanding of the building structure and his grasp of the whole building, but hotel photography focuses on the luxury of hotel facilities, the comfort of staying and the feeling of service. I like interior design and I am willing to do some design work. Through the understanding of environmental design, I can better grasp the hotel's environmental style in shooting. Environment is a way of life, and home environment photography is the display of personal lifestyle. Photographers should use light and photography language to reflect the owner's taste. Shooting hotels is different from shooting fashion home magazines, leaving photographers more creative space. When shooting a restaurant, I will look for the impression it gives me, and sometimes I will choose a corner or part of a scene to express the most representative style. The arrangement of hotel items is relatively fixed and cannot be changed too much. When shooting some fashionable homes, for the beauty and composition of the picture, you can readjust the scene and environment, and you can also arrange items and props. Sometimes the requirements put forward by customers are conceptual, and there will be differences with customers, but the details are different. If you pay attention to communication, the overall feeling should be consistent. Because the client will analyze his works when looking for a photographer, you will recognize your style when you choose. For example, for the same picture, I will take more different compositions for customers to choose. The biggest difficulty in shooting mostly comes from the scene conditions, and the required elements are incomplete and uncoordinated. These details will affect the overall picture effect. If the decoration is incomplete, it takes a long time to prepare props, and temporary props and decorations may not be suitable, which will have a strong sense of strewn at random. Like shooting clothes, it needs the cooperation of fashion models, stylists, makeup artists and professional costume props. Supplementary light in the environment is also very important, which needs seamless simulation like natural light. The quality of photographic works is an important condition to maintain customers. No matter now or in the future, I hope to successfully complete every shooting work. If the work can't meet the customer's requirements, there may be no next chance. My understanding of environmental photography is also a subdivision of commercial photography, or the photographer's aesthetic ability determines the quality of your photos. Of course, the environment and interior design should also have a certain accumulation, and high-quality photos are the result of years of artistic accumulation.
