How to communicate with photographers

It is better to communicate with pictures than with words.

Everyone has a different understanding of adjectives. Maybe when you say "nature", you mean taking nature as the background, and don't have too many artificial elements in the use of light and retouching. The photographer's understanding of "nature" may be to capture your casual action expressions and free voices. So please don't simply tell the photographer your requirements with adjectives. Please take some time to collect photos, whether it's advertisements in magazines, photos of celebrities or wedding photos taken by netizens, collect all the photos you like ~ and indicate which part of this photo you like on each photo. For example, like this gorgeous feeling, like this scene, like this posture, like this light, like this black and white, like this color, like this modeling, like this shooting location. ...

Listen to the photographer's advice and put forward reasonable shooting requirements.

The photos collected are for reference only. Whether it's feasible or not, and whether it's suitable for you, needs the professional-photographer's appraisal, just as someone wears the same clothes as a star, or cuts the same hairstyle as a star, only to find that it's not as pleasing to the eye as their original style. The beauty of art can not be achieved by keeping the copy unchanged. There is always a gap between ideal and realization.

In addition, many beautiful photos can not be completed simply by excellent shooting technology, but need the right time and place-seemingly beautiful and simple photos actually contain many technologies.

For ideas that are difficult to realize, you can discuss other alternatives with the photographer. Of course, the customer is God, and some reasonable requirements you want must be adhered to, but some must also be compromised and inclusive.

Show your photos to the photographer and find the perfect shooting angle.

The effects of real people and photos may be very different. I suggest that you can give your past photos to the photographer for reference in advance. Don't be afraid of trouble. Take all your photos with wig, no makeup, front side, elevation angle and depression angle for reference, so that photographers can be familiar with your various angles and lines, so as to capture the most beautiful shots.

Communicate the necessary preparations for the day.

To sum up, there are some small details that must be paid attention to when communicating with photographers, and we have also done some sorting:

Equipment that must be carried:

1. Print the found pictures (together with the unwanted modeling and photography style);

2. Post post-it notes on magazines and materials in advance to avoid rummaging around for a long time.

3. Take your photos on weekdays and communicate with the photographer from which angle you took them.

Situations that must be communicated:

1. Explain the feeling and style you want;

2. Ask to see the reference samples of the selected clothes;

3. Confirm the process of taking wedding photos on the same day, insist on taking the interior before taking the exterior, and emphasize not to take it too long or too late;

4. indispensable special gestures, such as proposing marriage;

5. Do you need to bring your own props?

At present, the most popular Taoist temples are: bouquets, garlands, wrist flowers, petals, balloons, bubble machines, windmills, cakes, parasols, fairy wand, kites, angel wings, fans, commemorative items, wedding rings, diamond rings, love letters, photo albums, doll gifts, crystal cups, favorite jewelry necklaces, bracelets, earrings, crowns, headdresses, hats and so on.
