A complete collection of children's shooting postures

In children's photography, the baby's pose is very important in the portrait head capture. When taking a baby's full-length or half-length photo, you must master the following tips. Let's take a look at what skills the studio needs to take a good photo of children!

1. arms and legs should not be parallel

no matter whether the babies are sitting or standing, never let their arms or legs be parallel, because it will make people feel stiff and mechanical. To avoid this situation, you can always sing a song or make a certain angle between them. In this way, you can be both dynamic and changeable in posture.

2. The head and body should not be in a straight line

If the two are in a straight line, it will inevitably give people a dull feeling. Therefore, when the front of the body is facing the camera, the head should turn slightly to the left or right, and the photo will look elegant and vivid; In the same way, when the baby's eyes look straight at the camera, turning the body into a certain angle will make the picture look alive and dynamic, and increase the three-dimensional sense.

3. Avoid sitting posture

When children are sitting posture, let them move forward, keep their chest out and abdomen in order to avoid shoulders hanging down

4. Show good posture

The baby's hands are not large in the picture, but if they are not placed properly, it will destroy the overall beauty of the picture. Pay attention to the integrity of the hand when shooting, and don't make it feel deformed, broken or incomplete. If you put your hands on your hips or put them in your pockets, you should show some fingers to avoid giving people the impression of being cut off.

5. The lens should be far away rather than close.

generally speaking, it's better to take a baby photo from a distance than from a distance. Because when the lens (especially the lens with short focal length) is very close to the subject, there will be deformity.

Therefore, when shooting, you should choose a lens with appropriate focal length and keep the lens at a certain distance from the person. According to practice, the best distance is 6? Between 8 feet. Take a full-length portrait at 13? Between 22 feet is appropriate. In addition, keeping the baby's hands and feet close to the body helps to avoid the occurrence of deformity, and once they are more than 18 inches away from the front and back of the body, they will appear out of proportion, and the hands and feet will become too big or too small.
