I-D photography teaches you how to pose when taking pictures.

In portrait photography, compared with China mm abroad, it is conservative, but also a little shy and melancholy. No one can forget this beauty. Although there is no strong desire, most of them are short-lived and unforgettable. For many domestic photographers, there are few opportunities to shoot foreign MT, and how to pose the China models around them has always been a difficult problem. After all, the subject of portrait photography itself, if the model is rigid or artificial, will directly affect the quality of a photo. At present, the best people in China are like photos in fashion magazines. Photographers can ask professional models to express the theme of the photos. Professional models sometimes need long-term physical training and express their strong desire in front of the camera. For ordinary photographers, it may be difficult to find a relatively professional model when creating portrait photos, and it is impossible to achieve an ideal shooting state without good guidance for the models in front of them. Especially in China, people like natural and subtle shapes. Once the model is rigid, it will make photographers feel at a loss, which is what everyone does not want to see. Nowadays, the so-called "portrait of a girl" is popular, which probably means that there is a large area of highlights in the portrait subject, and the picture is colorful, but mm's skin is white with a faint yellow (a little overexposed), and the hair details are obvious, which has a shallow depth of field effect. In order to achieve the same effect as this shooting method and integrate mm's posture into this picture, i-D photography divides common postures into three categories: basic standing posture, sitting posture and other phenotypic postures. Here, one-dimensional photography is a description one by one. (1) i-D photography basic standing posture: It is well-founded to say that standing posture is the most basic. First of all, it is the simplest in performance and easy for anyone to master. Moreover, if you use a big head photo, a half-length photo or a full-length photo, you can take the most beautiful photos as long as you stand well. In order to make it easier for everyone to understand, i-D photography uses the "clock method" to explain this posture in detail. The "clock method" actually assumes that the model stands on a clock dial, and every time the upper body changes its posture, its feet stand at attention (left, middle and right), t-step (left, middle and right) and paddle (left and right). All kinds of postures and shapes are produced from these foundations, plus the photographer's imagination and MT's grasp of his feelings. 1. Stand naturally. Some people always say that this standing posture is not beautiful at all, but it won't have any good effect if you stand dull, and it is dull in the picture, but this posture is most suitable for taking big photos. When a beautiful mm has the sweetest expression, you think this posture is the best way to take a portrait photo with visual impact just by making eyes full of emotion. Standing can make mm lengthen her neck, which not only makes her visually tall, but also makes her facial muscles look tight and not bloated (that is, thin). At this time, all you have to do is to use words and actions to mobilize mm's expression, and finally press the shutter at an appropriate time. 2. Hold your chest with your hands. Holding your chest with both hands and holding your chest with both hands belong to similar feelings. The important purPOSE of pose is to find a visual center on mm, which makes the picture full of motion. This posture is mainly suitable for busts, and the shape of hands can form an obvious corresponding relationship with people's faces. Let the picture become richer, and at the same time, you can feel mm's character through the performance of your hands. I-D photography reminds me that one thing must be paid attention to: when posing in this position, mm's fingers must be stretched out to increase the beauty of the body curve. 4. Hands akimbo This posture is very suitable for taking environmental portraits. The curve of the arm can break the feeling that the human body has only a straight line and make the picture very tense. The following photo is a very successful example. The model's hips, fashionable clothes and playful expressions make the picture full of vitality at once. China's traditional ideas about women are still conservative. This lovely gesture will generally please people who see the photos. Mm If you find a suitable environment to use this "classic" posture, the effect will be very good. (2) i-D photography sitting posture and lying posture Generally speaking, the most basic standing posture is easy to master. After all, when people stand, most of their muscles are tense. With the constant mobilization of photographers, MT will quickly develop a new posture as long as it enters the shooting state. After that, what the photographer needs to master is the posture of sitting and lying. In fact, this shooting posture can be summed up in four words: "advocating nature." Generally, the best shooting state of sitting and lying posture is to let MT relax completely. From the model's feeling, you don't have to "shoot for the sake of shooting", you can focus on things around you, such as props, things around you, environment, scenery, and even close your eyes. Doing so makes her mind blank or thinking about other things, perceives her inner world by observing mm's various expressions, and finally chooses appropriate lighting conditions to contrast this atmosphere and realize the integration with the environment. This bust shows the most "innocent" side of MM, leaving aside questions about pictures and light for the time being. Judging from the performance of the model alone, it was very successful and definitely achieved the performance goal of "advocating nature". Judging from the photos taken, mm's left shoulder is a bit artificial, and her eyes don't look directly at the camera, but what brings the best feeling to the picture is the sweetest smile of the girl. It is the photographer who seized this moment and filled the picture with the feeling of life. The shape of this photo belongs to the common "sitting horizontal", and the composition picture is not clean enough, but the photographer's ability to control the picture is first-class, which well explores the most beautiful side of the model and achieves good enough results. In addition, the model in this photo is wearing heavy clothes, which is not a taboo for photographers. As long as iPOSE is suitable, it can have perfect picture quality. Although the previous portrait photos were all sitting posture, but there is no complete full-length photo, it does not mean that the sitting posture can only be "big head photo" or "bust". This is a typical full-length pose. Mm's bright smile and excellent posture are the guarantee to become an excellent photo. The photographer covered up a part of mm's body in the composition to highlight the extensibility of mmPOSE. The highlight of the photo is that mm's leg posture is not in a plane. Not only is it staggered up and down, but also the degree of bending is just right, which makes people feel particularly comfortable. It sets off a beautiful body curve, absolutely perfect. The photographer's job is just to press the shutter. All the photos just now belong to sitting posture, so i-D photography found a photo belonging to POSE position, and the girl in the photo looks very playful and sweet. From the perspective of POSE, first of all, this prone position is not what people think. As mentioned before, only standing posture can make every muscle of the body reach the best state of excitement. The prone posture of this photo actually draws on this truth. The upper part of the body is upright, which makes the facial contour better represented. There is a playful expression in the excitement, and the quiet posture is a little dynamic. This should be quiet. The posture interpretation is vivid. (3) i-D photography postures before other phenotypic postures are relatively simple types, and the majority of photographers can grasp the main points of these postures by remembering some of them when shooting. Others are imagined temporarily according to the situation at that time, and this gesture that is not specially prepared often has more unexpected effects. POSE with dynamic effect, this type of POSE is really difficult for ordinary mm, such as this photo. The highlight of this pose is the raised left arm. The stretching of limbs can make mm's figure slimmer, and the use of wide-angle lens makes the picture more interesting. It must be noted that this dynamic posture is dangerous in a certain period of time. Photographers must do what they can and apply this posture according to the specific situation of mm to achieve the best results. Grasp the casual posture, don't think that as long as the posture is the most beautiful, sometimes there will be unexpected gains without special arrangements. When taking this portrait photo, mm didn't look at me, but paid attention to another photographer. The lens of i-D photography followed mm all the time, and did not move the lens because of the expression, so this photo came into being. Compared with the POSE intentionally created by mm at the same angle, it is much better from a natural sense. Photographers must have a pair of eyes that belong to their own unique vision in order to take the most impressive portrait photos. I-D photography said in the last sentence: As far as POSE itself is concerned, it will have an important impact on composition in most activities, so it must be integrated into the basic structure of activities, rather than highlighting a "beauty instrument" in activities. The best way is to choose a more vivid and natural charm and a slightly poor expression, and then tell her to adjust the small details slightly after the model gradually enters the situation at the end of the activity. No matter how good a portrait photo is, there are many other things, not to say that only a perfect posture can make an excellent portrait photo. Only when these factors reach or reach most of them can we succeed. In every portrait shooting activity, the links involved include the following aspects: a. Images to be expressed: there are not necessarily themes or stories, but sometimes they just want to express an old impression, a new idea, an indelible memory, an unforgettable experience, a color experiment, or simply try light and shadow or express the charm of portraits. So the shooting plan may be simple or complicated. Later, the participating photographers may also have different ideas and ideas. In multi-person activities, most of the initial conceptual schemes only provide a reference and a starting point for thinking, so that everyone can play more. B. Selection of scenic spots, scenes, light and shadow design: This part needs an experienced photographer, because he needs to know when, the general layout of light and shadow, and what shooting methods can be used. What angles are available? How long can it be filmed? What parts of the plan can be expressed? ... and so on Therefore, landscape surveyors often need more solid photography skills and experience. C. Selection of suitable candidates: After we have a general plan and direction, it is actually very easy to find a suitable candidate for the activity model. It is very important for models to know the plan and idea of the activity. Is it a simple "scene-light-portrait" or a complicated "story-situation-portrait"? It is also possible to carry out subsequent clothing, modeling and color matching.
