Close-up shooting skills of wedding photography

For photographers, there are not many auxiliary elements that can be used in the composition of close-ups. At this time, it is necessary to grasp the shooting angle more accurately, and take personalized close-up photos through the choice of shooting angle. Let's take a look at some tips for close-up shooting angles with me.

Close-up skills of wedding photography

Close-ups are usually the bust and above of a character, which may show the hand posture, such as half-holding, fist-clenching, opening, etc. Because the placement of arms has a great influence on the picture. Because the camera uses frames to capture images, all changes should be seen through the viewfinder and screen, and then the posture of the subject should be adjusted according to the picture.

Techniques for shooting close-ups from the front;

The appropriate facial angle depends on the bride's charm, lighting and the atmosphere the photographer wants. In the frontal portrait of the bride, the nose points to the camera. From this point of view, the bride's face is very wide, so a bride with a round face is generally not suitable for taking close-ups from the front.

Important factors of close-ups:

1, if the bride's eyes are big or small, it doesn't matter. You can avoid the head-up lens or move your glasses when shooting to minimize the shortcomings. Of course, not every close-up shot is beautiful, nor is there only one shot, so we can pay attention to it when choosing photos, just delete the big and small eyes or the opposite eyes, there are always a few beautiful and charming.

Some brides may have some spots on their faces. If cosmetics really can't cover these spots, the bride can choose not to shoot from the front, but from the side, or cover them with her hands or hair when shooting. You can also use brighter decorations to fade the spots.

We all know that the nose is beautiful, but the bride whose nose is too high or too low must communicate well with the photographer when taking wedding photos. Pay attention when lighting. Try to shoot from the front with a low nose bridge and from the side with a high nose bridge. Pay attention to the lighting problem for fat faces.

Tips for side shot close-up;

Careful observation, many stars will choose the posture of shooting sideways: twisting their bodies, not facing the camera, one shoulder facing the camera, and the other shoulder passing sideways, which will give people a seedling effect. At the same time, raising your arms and crossing your waist will make them look slimmer and slimmer. So the bride's face can be tilted to one side when taking a close-up, and we can't see the ears far away from the camera at this time. This angle suits most brides.

It should be noted that the eyes away from the camera will appear smaller. And don't exaggerate when you turn your head, otherwise the tip of your nose and the outline of your face will overlap, or the bride's nose will block the distant eyes. In profile portrait shooting, the bride's face is 90 degrees from the lens, so we should pay attention to adjusting the angle between the bride's head and the lens when shooting to ensure that the bride's eyes, eyebrows and eyelashes give people a looming feeling.
