8 Tips on How to Take Dreamy Photos

Oer-Wout is a Dutch photographer. The photos he takes are full of unique style and give people a dreamy feeling. Now share 8 tips so that you can take dreamy photos. 1. Shoot patiently. It is very likely that you need to visit the same place multiple times at different times to capture the beautiful light and scenery, so it is important to be patient and try more. 2. Use different focal lengths. Use lenses of different focal lengths according to the situation. The telephoto lens can highlight the subject and create a shallow depth of field effect, and the wide-angle lens can capture a sense of space and magnificent scenery. 3. Use shallow depth of field Shallow depth of field shooting techniques can deepen the "dream" effect. Sometimes it is necessary to use "extremely shallow" depth of field, so a large aperture lens (such as f/1.2) comes in handy. 4. Adjust the white balance. We can adjust the white balance (White Balance) to make the color of the picture different from normal and bring another feeling. 5. Make good use of filters and tripods Make good use of filters, such as CPL, gradient gray, etc., to make the lighting deeper and better than ordinary shooting. A tripod is a necessary accessory for shooting night scenes, sunsets and sunrises.
