Suggestions on location wedding photography

Location wedding photography is different from indoor photography. Generally speaking, location photography involves the following biological problems:

1 Application of light. When shooting on location, the application of light can be flexible, not limited to one or two kinds of light. In addition to front light, side light, backlight and side backlight, if we need to create special visual effects, we can also add some artificial light in some necessary occasions to achieve unexpected effects. However, it should be noted that natural light and artificial light must be used and distinguished correctly. When taking a wedding dress, it is best to use natural light as much as possible, mainly natural light, so that the tone and layering will be stronger and the connection between the characters and the background will be more unified. And if you want to take fashionable photos, you can add artificial light to improve efficiency!

When choosing a scene, it must be similar to the theme of the wedding dress, and mainly focus on the scenery that the couple likes. Newcomers choose more diverse locations. In addition to natural scenery, there are also cultural attractions that new people like, such as university campuses, the Great Wall, churches, bars and so on. The style tone of location wedding photos should be natural, casual and unpretentious, and the main characters should be in harmony with the environment in Beijing.

5 Three aspects should be paid attention to in controlling exposure correctly: "1" further cuts the "scene" due to the requirements of exposure; 2. Use the exposure meter correctly; 3. Adjust the light of the characters properly to enhance the visual effect of the light.

6 When shooting on location, the help of some props can make the Pose of newcomers more comfortable, especially for inexperienced newcomers, which can effectively improve the unnatural expression, and can also assist shooting, especially those colorful props, which can make the picture more abundant.

Wedding photos are different from art photos. It is not wise to dress "cool", but it is very difficult to look cold and beautiful in front of the camera. The state of smiling is the best, and the innocent and lively natural smile is the most attractive. It is suggested that newcomers can practice smiling properly two weeks before shooting. You know, you have to laugh all day on the day of the photo shoot. Without the good habit of smiling, it is difficult to stick to it. Of course, if you meet an experienced photographer, you can relax a lot. They often infect you with words and try their best to make you laugh.

If the bride chooses a short wedding dress for location shooting, she should pay special attention to the posture of her legs when sitting down. Correct posture can avoid stretching her limbs and make her look slim. Putting your feet on your side is a good way to make your body more three-dimensional. If my legs still feel patchy, it will be even more charming.

When shooting on location, newcomers are prone to "white eyes", that is, the whites of their eyes appear up and down, which will be unnatural and unsuitable for taking warm wedding photos, especially when shooting newcomers from a high angle. But a good photographer will grasp the angle and ask the newcomers to raise their faces as much as possible to avoid "white eyes."
