For those people with normal facial features and normal facial structure, they can be photographed from the front. The form of positive composition can shape the positive characteristics of a correct face, and reveal the inner personality characteristics of the characters through the expression of eyes and facial expressions.

Side composition

Profile composition can be used to shape the profile of the subject. Any person whose profile image is relatively correct can be photographed from the side to show some characteristics of his profile and show the bodybuilding or beauty of the profile image. When shooting profile portraits, in addition to the correct facial features and changeable facial lines, there are still a few portraits whose facial images are not correct enough, or the left and right sides of the face are defective. Contour composition can be used to cover up defective parts.

Diagonal composition

When taking portraits of people, you may encounter two eyes or two ears of individual people with different sizes.

Defects? Ears? Hide? On the back that the audience can't see, only one ear appears on the picture, and the audience will feel that everything is normal.
