How to pose for two people!

There are several principles: generally speaking, it is not appropriate to let the limbs and trunk of the subject face the camera, because the angle of view of the camera will make these limbs produce very uncomfortable visual effects. Especially women, if their fingers, face, chest, hips and toes all point to the camera, it is easy to appear bloated on the screen; When the subject's muscles are squeezed, there will be very unsightly body deformation, which should be avoided; The trunk should be the main line of composition, and the limbs, especially the upper limbs, should be the auxiliary lines of composition to coordinate the primary and secondary relations. The posture should be coordinated with the clothing, temperament and personality of the subject. Feel free to put down your baggage and put the wine as you like. Naturally, we don't pose deliberately. The subject's posture, manners 1, standing portrait: Standing portrait is one of the most common postures in portrait photography, which can fully display the lines of characters, with great aesthetic freedom and many postures. Pay attention to the following points when posing as a portrait: a. The subject has one leg standing straight, and the other leg is freely crossed or slightly lifted. The straight leg should not be bent, and the lifted leg should keep the body straight. The laying of legs and feet is the premise of laying upper body parts. B, the subject's head, chest and buttocks are generally not in a straight line. Let the main line of the body form a curve or S line. C, head, chest, buttocks formed by the plane block should not be in a plane. For example, when the chest lump is forward, the face should be sideways. For example, when the chest is sideways, the ass should be turned forward. D. general standing posture requires swinging from the feet. 2. Sitting portrait: Sitting portrait is more restricted than standing portrait, but sitting posture can form a beautiful curve, which is also conducive to eliminating the tension of the subject. Sitting posture is based on sitting posture inclined to the camera at 45 degrees, which can be divided into three types: oblique sitting posture, back sitting posture and side back sitting posture. The angles formed by the upper and lower torso can be divided into right-angle sitting posture, obtuse sitting posture and acute sitting posture. If the legs are crossed, they can be divided into thigh crossing and calf crossing. When shooting sitting portraits, we should pay attention to the following aspects: a. Sitting portraits are suitable for expressing static expressions, and the expressions of the subjects should be restrained, including animals. B, the treatment of subjects' joints is the key part. On the whole. It's rare to take pictures in a sitting position, because then your knees will rush to the camera and your thighs will look thick and clumsy. C. The spine treatment of sitting portraits is also very important, because the emotions of sitting portraits are written on the back, especially when the side is facing the sitting posture and sitting posture. When the mood is high and the spirit is full, the spine is always straight. When in a bad mood, the spine will be greatly curled, while the spine in a normal state of mind is only slightly bent. Therefore, when the subject sits down, the photographer should remind him not to sit too firmly, to sit in vain, and not to lean back on the chair. Pay attention to supporting the upper body with his spine. D, sitting portrait is not easy to show the figure, generally do not choose loose and fat clothing, in order to better reflect the figure curve and the lines of limbs, it is best to let customers wear tight clothing. E. When you are sitting, you should first look for the most suitable body proportion from the lens. Only when the proportion is normal will the visual experience be comfortable. The smoothness and integrity of lines is a problem that can not be ignored in sitting posture modeling. Sitting posture often interrupts the extended figure curve, and the lines in sitting posture are often locked and appear messy. Sitting posture can more calmly show the modeling advantages of the upper body, and can make full use of the characteristic curve of the outer contour of the upper body to show the figure. Coupled with the coordination of limbs, a relatively complete and smooth body curve can be formed. When dealing with exposed parts of the body, such as arms, waist, abdomen and thighs. 3. Double-person modeling: Double-person photos are often encountered in wedding photography. Compared with single photos, double photos are more diverse in beauty modeling. There are not only changes in the body, lines and expressions of a single character, but also exchanges between roles. When posing a pair of beautiful postures, we must not forget the echo and change between the two. When shooting two people's wedding dresses, we should pay attention to the following aspects: A. The beauty of two people should pay attention to the changes of each other's bodies when modeling, from the perspective of human body structure. The human body is divided into three parts: head, chest and buttocks. When we study the beauty modeling of the duo, we divide them into two groups to study. Generally, the subject has six basic structural combinations relative to the lens: female body, male body, female body, female body, male body and female body, female body and female body. On the basis of these six basic combinations, further fine-tuning and subdivision can produce endless beautiful shapes. B, double beauty modeling should pay attention to the changes of lines in the picture. The lines in the picture have different meanings. For example, straight lines give people a feeling of being tall and vigorous, which is suitable for expressing the beauty of men. Curves give people a gentle and quiet charm, which is suitable for expressing beautiful environment or gentle female beauty. Charts are dynamic, if the number of diagonals is small in the picture. If there is less movement and more diagonal lines, the sense of movement of the whole picture will become very strong. When the diagonal inclination is not too great, the sense of movement becomes moderate. Fourth, the beautiful posture should be consistent with the characters' expressions and environmental atmosphere. In portrait photography, the attitude expression of the subject and the artistic space of the characters are interrelated. The different environments of shooting characters have different styles of beauty. For example, when the subject is in a warm environment, the posture of the subject should be softer. When the figure is in a warm environment, the beautiful shape of the figure should be unrestrained. In portrait photography, the pose modeling of the subject and other modeling elements in the picture are a complete whole, and the change of any modeling element in the picture will affect the beauty modeling of the subject. Photographers must not study beauty modeling from the actual situation of the subject and its environment. "Beauty" should pay attention to skills. (a) for ugly, try to avoid close-ups and recent photos. (2) For people with chubby faces, they can be properly covered with veiled hands or other trinkets, and at the same time, the camera position can be improved. (3) When shooting with big eyes and small eyes, the angle of the subject should be adjusted, and the small eyes should be close to the lens. (4) the shooting of "rolling your eyes"; Try to keep the photographer's eyes to one side and catch the moment when his eyes turn, not the moment when his eyes are wide open. (5) "cross-eyed" shooting; Photographers should try to find a suitable angle so that the eyes of the subject appear on the opposite side of the picture at different times. (6) For the subject with a long neck, the plane should also be raised to allow the subject's hand and jaw. (7) For people with a sharp chin, you should use a combination of high position and the subject's bow. (8) It is the most difficult to shoot "nose up", just don't shoot the front. Some tips for shooting portraits accumulated in daily shooting are for your reference. There are usually three commonly used composition modes, also called formulaic composition mode; (1) Close-up (2) Seven heads (3) When shooting the whole body, the height of the camera will also decrease with the expansion of the shooting range. When shooting a bust, the height of the camera is approximately equal to the height of the subject's nose; When taking photos of seven heads, the camera position is about the height of the subject's chest; When taking a full-length photo, the height of the camera should be at the waist of the subject. The so-called composition is to arrange various shooting elements in a specific scene to achieve the effect of expressing the object of appeal. Nowadays, the popular portrait photography skills usually use the following methods to express the theme in composition and framing, and write it for your reference and correction. (1) Use the difference of depth of field before and after to highlight the theme of the characters. (2) Use the method of size contrast to make the main body bigger and the foil smaller. (3) Emphasize the subject through color contrast. (4) The main body is stationary and moves with the body, so the stability of the main body composition is relatively strong.
