Seven Skills of Flower Portrait Shooting

Seven Skills of Flower Portrait Shooting

It coincides with the season when spring returns to the earth and flowers bloom. How do we record these beautiful scenery with a camera? Face: I'll teach you seven flower portrait shooting techniques.

TIPS 1: Choose a good scene.

A good scene is like a good stage, right? Acting? The foundation of. When shooting portraits in a sea of flowers, it is undoubtedly wise to choose an inclined flower field: it makes the plane scene three-dimensional, and it is easy for photographers to fill the whole background with flowers, giving readers a grand hint of the scene, and with the gradual change of depth of field, fiction and fact become layered.

TIPS2: An Important Element in the Foreground

If the foreground is used properly, it will make the work different. Moreover, because the flowers in the foreground are close to the lens, according to the principle of depth of field, the blur is particularly severe and the defocusing effect is particularly soft, which is easy to create a romantic and aesthetic atmosphere. When using a wide-angle lens, people's lower limbs are often too thick and too long because of perspective distortion, and the prospect can be appropriate. Cover up ugliness? Function.

TIPS2: The background is appropriately blurred.

The flowers and branches in the background can be blurred appropriately, and they can look hazy and beautiful. Because flowers and their branches and leaves are numerous and too clear, the background will appear messy, and people will be buried in them and unable to stand out. To blur the background, you can use a lens with a large aperture or a long focal length. If the aperture of the lens used is not large enough and the blurring ability is limited, it is necessary to keep the characters away from the background. At this time, it is very advantageous to use a long focal length lens. Its blur ability is strong, and its unique sense of compression can narrow the distance between the background and the person and avoid the separation of the person and the scene due to the distance.

Tip 4: Remember to bring a ladder.

When shooting high flowers such as rape, sunflower and reed, the model may be submerged or only show a small part of her body when standing among the flowers. Photographers are also tied behind because of the flowers, so it is very necessary to carry one or two portable ladders. With the ladder, photographers can shoot from top to bottom, and the composition is more flexible and diverse. With a higher position, they can shoot more scenes, and models can stand on the ladder to show more bodies.

TIPS5: Composition determines everything.

1. Make a composition with a frame composed of flowers or their branches and leaves, and frame the characters inside to stand out.

2. Using flowers and trees with different colors to form a contrast of color blocks can avoid the monotony of the picture. In the picture, pink peach blossoms and snow-white pear blossoms complement each other, and it is another spring.

3. Cross-use of high and low positions: high positions can bring extraordinary visual effects to readers, and also allow photographers to fill the whole picture with flowers when facing small areas of flowers; The low position can highlight the sky and make the film more atmospheric.

TIPS6: the basis of location shooting of human-scene integration

As exterior portraits, people and the environment must be closely integrated to achieve the integration of people and scenery. In the picture on the left, the figure sitting by the tree not only gives the photographer a special angle to get rid of the dull picture, but also makes the figure closely integrated with the environment. In the picture on the right, the characters are standing among the flowers. Although the scene is not big, it emphasizes the environment.

TIPS7: Backlight is always backlit

Backlighting is the only way to make flowers look beautiful. Flowers in the sun are very common. If you change them to backlight, the flowers will be outlined by sunlight and shine.
