What are the ways to take portraits?

1. Use the shooting angle to help reduce the defects of portraits.

For professional models, photographers may not have to tell them how to pose, because they already know their beautiful angles and how to avoid some angles. But for non-professional models, from the perspective of photography, this is difficult. Therefore, the photographer may have to help suggest a posture, such as raising and tightening the nape of the neck. By raising your chin, your hands and feet naturally droop and shoot at a good angle.

2. Use a filter to make the image look plump and smooth and remove wrinkles.

Filters with membranes will add softness to the picture. When used in portrait photography, it will make the skin of the subject look smoother, reduce wrinkles and make the skin look smoother, clearer and younger.

Please use soft light when shooting.

For example, use soft light or let light pass through the medium, use light absorbers or take photos that allow light to pass through transparent curtains. The subject will look softer, the light will be blurred, and there will be no deep shadow. Wrinkles are not so strong, which reduces the strength of wrinkles on the face.

Use interesting props

Stories in the picture can make objects look younger, brighter and more interesting. You can also cover your body with hats, glasses and other tools to reduce your actual age, make the image and subject look brighter, or reduce your age.

5. Use the smile and fun of the object to enhance vitality.

In addition to shooting techniques and equipment, the colorful theme also makes life more vivid. Young people seem to be able to express their psychology and feelings. So, if the object can clearly show its vividness and sincerity.
