How to take portraits of cherry blossoms

Sakura portraits

Photographed from a low angle and upward

1. During the cherry blossom season, it is inevitable that tourists will be everywhere. No matter how you take the photos, they will not look good. I took them at this time. People can squat down and take pictures from a low angle, using the cherry blossom trees as the background.

2. If possible, you can also bring a small folding bench to stand on and take pictures. (Remember to bring a reflector to make your face look better)

Use branches to shoot with foreground blur

1. Sometimes I feel that it is too monotonous to shoot people dryly or simply use cherry blossoms as the background. At this time, the subject can use the cherry blossom branches to blur the foreground.

Zoom in from top to bottom

1. If the cherry blossom branches hang down relatively long, you can use the branches as the foreground to enlarge the picture, or you can take a shot of the person alone, with the model squatting slightly. /The photographer steps on a small bench.

Use flowers to block tourists

1. When there are many people, you can find an angle to use cherry blossoms to block the tourists behind, blur the background, and focus on taking close-up shots. The upper body of the model serves as the visual center.

Only take a photo of the face

1. You can sip the cherry blossoms with your mouth or take a partial photo of the facial features that you are satisfied with, and blur the foreground cherry blossoms. It is also good to hold the cherry blossoms with your hands and only take photos of the face. choice.
