What are the tips for choosing portrait photography models?

thin out

I'm not talking about body discrimination, but in the popular concept that thinness is the beauty, being thinner may appear more easily in the camera. Similarly, thinner models will be more relaxed when looking for clothes to match. Especially when shooting close-ups, once the film is slightly enlarged during development, it is inevitable that people will think of expansion. But "thin" here is not "thin", just don't be too fat.

(you can also avoid a lot of brainless spraying. )

A generous and cheerful personality.

Speaking of cheerful personality, in fact, it is mainly to facilitate communication and put on some more open postures. Many girls always have a sense of distance at the beginning when they are about to shoot. Walking or changing clothes will have a different view from the photographer, and shooting without mutual trust will not be very pleasant. Especially for models with stiff expressions who are afraid of laughing, crying and ugliness, except for some types of photography, more people can't satisfy the "nervous expression" that photography wants.

Models who are easy to communicate or get along with can promote mutual understanding, so I always think that there must be a considerable degree of communication and mutual understanding before shooting. Courage over mountains and mountains, good personality, eating, drinking and having fun, many casual worries can stay like this.

Obvious facial features

It is really rare to have a pair of sparse facial features, especially those that are not so blushing. Models with high recognition make people feel a sense of accomplishment, and models with three-dimensional features can also control more styles.

In fact, frankly speaking, it is still to "show nervousness." A slightly higher nose bridge and a deeper eye socket can better reflect the transformation of light and shadow, which is "better looking" in the popular sense. People with natural atmosphere are really more photogenic. Even in some street sweeping photography, people with obvious facial features or beautiful features will be more eye-catching. Dressing is always secondary, just like why Liu Wen, the eldest cousin, can look "the most expensive face" because she is light but not poor.
