How to shoot clothes

You need to use a tripod to ensure stability when shooting clothes. Be careful not to use the flash when taking pictures. The use of flash often leads to blurred texture of clothes. It is best to use natural light. If it is not natural light, you need to use several photographic lights.

In addition, the material of clothes also has different requirements for lighting. Soft light is used for smooth and delicate clothes, while strong light is used for thicker materials (linen). Before taking pictures, you need to "dress up" your clothes and iron them well.

Clothing photography:

Clothing photography is a part of commercial advertising photography, mainly focusing on clothing. By reflecting the characteristics of clothing, such as color, style, etc., arouse customers' desire to buy.

Clothing photography is an important means to spread commodity information and promote commodity circulation. With the continuous development of clothing industry, clothing is no longer a simple appearance, it has become a mirror of real life.

Clothing photography category:

According to the different clothing styles and performance effects, clothing photography is usually divided into the following three types of shooting methods:

1, model shooting (stereoscopic).

Photographed by real models or model props in costumes, the effect is real and the most expressive. Among them, it is easier to shoot real models than model props, but it also requires the cooperation of professional makeup artists, stylists and dressers to complete the shooting better.

2. Hanging shooting (semi-stereoscopic).

Clothes are hung vertically on hangers or other auxiliary props to simulate the natural wearing state. It can be fixed with pins or molding lines, which is more aesthetic when shooting.

3. Tile shooting (plane).

Beautify the clothes horizontally and shoot them. Pre-shooting is relatively simple, but in order to pursue certain effects, post-beautification is needed to have better visual effects.
