What are the shooting skills of snow portraits?

First, clothing collocation

The snow is white and bright, so the snow scene is almost versatile and the requirements for clothing are not too high. Here are two kinds of clothing combinations for everyone.

① Light series+fresh and elegant style

Let the model wear light-colored clothes, such as white clothes, gray clothes, light blue clothes and so on. Clothes of this color are easier to match with the white snow scene, thus creating a fresh and elegant style.

② Bright color series+lively and lively style

The so-called bright color is clothes with high color saturation, which is just the opposite of light color. There are many brightly colored clothes, such as bright red clothes and bright yellow clothes, which will form a strong color contrast with the white snow scene.

Second, use props

Most photographers may be embarrassed to pose in the snow, so they can use some props when taking pictures, such as umbrellas, hats, scarves, cameras and so on.

The existence of props is to distract the attention of the model to avoid embarrassment, and the other is to play a shielding role, such as scarves and hats.

Third, take pictures and pose.

Here is more to provide ideas for everyone, and everyone needs to adjust according to the environment when shooting.

Interaction with snow: You can hold the snow in your hand or scatter it into the sky, or kick it with your feet and so on. Interaction with snow will be better.

Look up at the sky: especially when the snow falls, look up at the sky and take 45? Angle shooting.

Look sideways intentionally: If you feel embarrassed to look directly at the camera, you can try to look sideways, and the photographer will capture the moment of looking sideways.

Inadvertently looking back: what is the so-called? If she just turned her head and smiled, there would be a hundred spells to cast? You can try to look back at this action more often when taking portraits.

Try to take a snapshot: If you think the posture is too fake, try to take a snapshot. Models can walk, play with snow and take photos. Photographers can snap shots from the side.

Matching snowflakes with characters: The key to shooting this is to control the shutter speed and freeze the snowflake next to the model with a slightly faster shutter speed.

Fourth, matters needing attention

First, the temperature is low in winter, and the battery consumption of the camera is fast. I suggest you bring an extra battery.

It is easy to fog in the second winter, so everyone should take lens cloth with them. When the lens or viewfinder is foggy, wipe it with lens cloth, and try not to wipe it with clothes or hands.
