What should we pay attention to in furniture photography?

If you want to shoot good furniture, you must first have a certain understanding of furniture. Although you don't have to know furniture like a furniture expert, you should at least know the styles and types of products, such as classical, modern, neoclassical and European. In terms of types, there are plates, software, metal, glass, outdoor furniture, office furniture, solid wood furniture and so on. According to the function classification, it can also be divided into bedroom series, living room series, dining room series, study series, teenagers series and children series. Naturally, every kind of different furniture needs different shooting techniques. Shooting furniture first shows the characteristics, structure and function of furniture; Secondly, it is necessary to show the display atmosphere of all kinds of furniture; Then it is necessary to express style and a higher level of product expression. To express beauty, there will be a situation and idea in the shot picture, which is a little close to the meaning of art works. If the basis of furniture photography is to know something about furniture, then the success or failure of shooting furniture depends largely on how to arrange the scenery and decorations. The knowledge of scenery is very profound, so both the Film Academy and the Drama Academy have set up stage art departments to study the art of scenery. It can be said that what kind of scenery has what kind of atmosphere. This set of European classical furniture was originally decorated according to foreign pictures. Wallpapers and carpets with classical patterns, magnificent wall lamps, a large number of oil paintings and flowers, and silverware in the details are exactly the same. Because first of all, the scenery is successful, and the shooting can be successful. The picture is like shooting in a European aristocratic mansion. It is worth noting that the choice of background color should be in contrast with furniture and coordinated. Each color expresses a feeling, so choose the tone that best suits to express the product. The soul of furniture photography is running out of light, just like a rock band, the soul is bass. The charm of light and shadow is endless. As a master said, light is used to sculpt objects. Light and shadow is a treasure chest. If used properly, it will bring a new look to the picture. If the studio has 8-9 main light levels, it is not reasonable. Therefore, it is the best way to imitate the lighting of the "sun" and make the light levels as uniform as possible, with a broad and clear priority. Sometimes I don't hesitate to organize a main light source with 5-6 lamps to create an artificial sun in the studio. The main light source is preferably located directly above the furniture, and a soft light screen is added to make the light soft and diffuse, so that a large area of soft light can sweep a large area. In addition, several hard lamps (high-wattage flashlight for several seconds) are used, and honeycombs with different apertures are selected to cover the standard cover of the lamps as needed, so that several bright local light areas will appear on the main body of the furniture, thus immediately turning on the light and shade of the furniture and making people feel elegant. There are many kinds of light, soft or intense, dreamy or vivid, clear or hazy, hot and desolate or abrupt or delicate, dark or early spring, straight or oblique, emotional or restrained, peaceful or pale. If you want to make the bedroom furniture look softer, you can use soft lighting and dreamy lighting to achieve this effect instead of using low-contrast filters. Vivid light refers to bright contrast and full of vitality, while lifeless light is responsible for the lack of hierarchy and shadow. Clear light should be contrasted, but not too much. The avenue is invisible. If the photographer's technique and style are fixed in a pattern, the work will make people feel bored. The best shooting method should be determined according to the different styles and textures of furniture, so that the works are both beautiful and aura.
