How to take private photos?

1. First of all, lighting is absolutely indispensable in photography. An excellent photographic work will naturally become lifeless without the aid of lighting. As for private portrait shooting, most of them are mainly hotel rooms. After all, there are few photographers who can provide professional studios. So when we choose a hotel room in the early stage, we might as well look at the environment and light first. If the window is big enough and the light penetration is strong enough, then don't be embarrassed and start work quickly! What should I do if I make mistakes when choosing a hotel, such as being blinded by the renderings of shopping guide websites and group buying websites, and finding that the light is not as good as expected? Then at this time, we will use our second weapon-lighting.

2. When it comes to lighting, many people think of all kinds of umbrella-shaped, box-shaped and single-lamp-shaped lights. So what kind of light is this? I want to call it a flash. Here, I don't recommend taking private photos with this kind of light. First of all, private photos combine the personality and temperament of the model through localized photography. The working principle of the flash is actually very simple. Combine the flash with the shutter of SLR camera, and at the moment when the shutter is pressed, the effect of supplementing light can be achieved through strong flash. Many entry-level SLR cameras will have their own flash, but why do higher-end SLR cameras delete this function? It is because of the flash that it looks too plastic.

When it comes to sculpture, many people are puzzled again. Then why is the strong lighting not suitable for private photography? First of all, because of the working principle, at the moment of flashing, the flashing light is very strong, which makes people feel very hard about the light visually; Secondly, the light of the flash is very scattered, and hitting the legs and chest of the model will make these parts feel stiff, so this is why the flash has various shapes to help the flash shape the light source; Third, the flash needs to be coordinated with the shutter speed and sensitivity of the SLR camera. Many people have this experience-going out to play at night, holding a SLR and turning on the flash of the SLR body. As a result, the photos taken were not ideal. Sallow skin, glowing eyes and greasy hair must be a very interesting nightmare. So the flash is not unusable, but more suitable for commercial creation. It is suitable for closed, linear and controllable indoor rooms, and has achieved due results through repeated manual transformation.

Speaking of which, what kind of light source should I choose for taking private photos? Here it is. I recommend LED. This indicator is not another indicator. The biggest advantage of LED is that it is always on at first. The concept is very simple, that is, it can ensure the light source to emit light in a constant brightness range. Secondly, the temperature of LED is very low, and the probability of scalding is very small for a job that requires physical strength. Third, the service life of LED lamp beads is very long. As we all know, it is very normal for people who use energy-saving lamps at home not to change light bulbs for several years. Ordinary normally lit lamps are usually equipped with high-fiber tungsten filament bulbs. Such light bulbs often need to be replaced after working for 10 hours, and the replacement cost is very high. Fourth, the constant light of LED is very soft and controllable. Properties such as light path and color temperature can be easily changed through the equipped optical plate. Fifth, LED lights are light and easy to store, and are generally equipped with rechargeable batteries and power supplies, which is obvious in ease of use.

4. After talking about the lights, the next thing to talk about is the camera. First of all, we should be clear, which is better, focusing or zooming? This question must have puzzled many beginners. Then let's look at this problem from another angle. At the same cost, you have to make a lens that can shoot both wide-angle and telephoto segments. It is more exquisite to concentrate on making a fixed-focus lens, and the answer to this question is obvious. From the optical performance of the lens, the fixed-focus lens often has a large aperture, so the requirements for light environment are low. We solved this problem perfectly by increasing the aperture to improve the overall texture and brightness of the photo.

Ok, after talking about equipment and preliminary preparation, let's talk about specific photography.

Start shooting:

1 First of all, we have to determine the clothes we like. The choice of clothes is mainly based on the characteristics of the model itself. Here, I suggest that you can enjoy the works of other photographers. Photography grows up through absorption and practice.

2. Backlight shooting. Many people are afraid of this way of shooting and think that backlight is difficult to control. Actually, it's not. Backlighting is very beneficial to shaping the obscurity and mystery of characters. Moreover, in the backlight environment, the requirements for the optical performance of the lens are not high, which indirectly reduces the cost. When shooting this kind of backlit photo, we can adjust the focus to point focus, and then focus on the model, so that we can take a beautiful and fresh photo.

3. conventional shooting. This kind of shooting is actually generally recommended on a white bed. First of all, bright white sheets are conducive to reflection, which is very conducive to shooting creation. Secondly, you can communicate with the model more, so that the model can achieve unexpected results through the flexible cooperation of waist and legs. Here, I suggest you don't adjust the shutter speed too low. Because the shutter speed is too low, it needs very good hand strength and grip. Once you shake it slightly, the whole photo will become blurred. Therefore, if you feel that the light environment is not suitable, you can make a second creation through the light supplement method mentioned above. Speaking of composition, I suggest highlighting the waist of the model as much as possible. When I first started writing, it was difficult to meet 100% perfect models. What is the most beautiful thing about women? Naturally, it is at the waist. Therefore, the middle of the waist is more conducive to the exquisiteness of the film and your own practice.
