Ask the photographer why the background of the photos taken in our own shed is always too bright, and how to arrange and shoot such light (taken by others)

1, your background is light compared to clothes, and the umbrella light is wide, so shooting is similar to shooting backlight. Proper theme exposure often means that the background is bright. So, from a photographic point of view,

First of all, we should pay attention to the clothing category: clothing can be divided into coarse cloth according to different fabrics, and soft cloth can be divided into light color and dark color according to colors; Rough fabrics such as sweaters and jeans will produce obvious texture bulges when photographed in relatively sharp light;

Secondly, we should pay attention to it as much as possible: light color and dark color usually choose different background colors to match the appropriate contrast of the picture. Generally speaking, light-colored clothes can use colored background, and dark clothes can use white background, so that even if the background is brighter, it is still white. The light yellow non-reflective log background was originally suitable for a wide range, but it was inevitably too bright when shooting dark themes with soft floodlighting.

2. Suggestions: First, try to avoid soft light and floodlight. Although obvious shadows are avoided, it is difficult to fundamentally solve the problem that the background is too bright when shooting dark clothes. The main light is properly prominent, mainly concentrated on clothing, which is conducive to the three-dimensional embodiment of clothing wrinkle texture (pay attention to the shadows taken by others and find out the relative intensity and angle of the main light). If the background shadow is too obvious, you can add a weak and soft backlight with appropriate intensity to solve it. It is suggested that Baidu's "Taobao Sellers' Photo Shooting Skills Map" or "Taobao Clothing Shooting Skills" look at other people's specific experiences, including collocation, background and lighting. After understanding the principle, try to separate the layout of the lights from the primary and secondary, and raise the main lights from some angles.

Secondly, I personally think that using a solid background when shooting is more beneficial to high-quality clothing photos, but it needs post-processing to change the appropriate background. Learning to dig clothes pictures has a solid background and is not difficult, but it is a bit troublesome, but the effect is controllable and worthwhile.

Note: I'm not an expert, so I seldom shoot this kind. I just analyze and suggest from the application of light for reference only.
