Common construction methods of portrait photography

What are the portrait composition skills? What are the common ways of portrait photography composition? Below I sorted out the portrait composition skills of SLR photography for your reference!

1, tic-tac-toe combination

This is a composition method that has been used n times, and it is also the most common composition method. Whether you want to shoot scenery, portraits, street photos, travel photos or candid photos, it is universal, but the old-fashioned is the old-fashioned, and it can be used by both experts and novices. In fact, TIC-tac-toe composition is the simplest, most stable, safest and most acceptable to the public.

2. Central component

At the beginning, people said, "Don't put people in the middle, you are a novice." I just did it foolishly. I want to say that only TIC-tac-toe players will think you are a master. The people in the middle will know that you are a rookie and can't take pictures and take a SLR. But after eating TIC-tac-toe for a long time, I turned and put people in the middle. I found it not so bad. It is feasible to see how you use it, as long as you always avoid taking big photos and close-ups.

In fact, the central composition is simple, and it is also very easy to use with scenery shooting. If you also use the professional level like Canon Entry Level or 5D2, you will know what I am talking about, so don't feel ashamed to use the central composition. In fact, the shame is those who can't even shoot the central composition well!

3. Composition with foreground

Sometimes I really want to take a close-up, but it's monotonous or the scenery is boring. I always feel that taking a photo alone is a little less. At this time, you will take photos with the foreground. The simplest thing is to take pictures of people. There is a fuzzy flower in front. I think everyone has taken such photos, right? However, replacing flowers with walls is also a way to match the foreground. Don't think it's strange to put a whole wall or leave too much space. Shoot me!

4, cutting composition

People who shoot well say they have a sense of touch, while those who shoot badly say what their heads should look like and their legs should look like. Or what are you filming? But it doesn't matter. We couldn't shoot well at first. You can cut your favorite composition when you go home. I can't help it Not everyone is a genius, and neither am I. I took photos casually at first, and I was very discouraged, but I didn't PS the photos, so my way was to delete them when they were rotten and take what I wanted on the spot. If you want to waste the shutter like me, you can refer to my way.

You can practice shooting well on the spot in my way, but of course it wastes the shutter, and it is not necessarily better to shoot after wasting it than to cut it with software ... You will know how to cut it after shooting for a while, and the photos will not look strange. At this time, you will start your career, and only you can shoot it yourself. This is your style. Of course, you can always use the computer to cut it, but it won't help your photography skills.

5. Instant composition

This composition is not difficult, but it depends on luck, or it takes more shots to get a good picture, usually grasping expressions or movements. This kind of photo is usually more natural and dynamic, and I prefer this kind, but it is rarely decent.

This kind of composition depends on your skillful technique, interaction with MD, and "luck" in taking wonderful photos. So many people like street shooting because there is one less factor "interaction with MD" in street shooting, and the rest is only your own observation and instant capture ability. It's okay to shoot birds randomly. Anyway, there is always a good picture in random shooting, but we should match the composition mentioned above with the correct expression or action in random shooting, that is, "order in chaos." This is the difficulty of this composition.
