How to shoot good furniture

First, shoot according to local conditions.

1. For the light and color system in the bedroom, use a soft light box as the main light source, place it on the front of the baby, and use another light to hit the ceiling or wall to brighten the light in the room and create a soft and warm atmosphere. The range of children's activities is mainly in bed, and the pictures are mainly pastel and lavender.

There are many dark wooden furniture in the study, and the main color of the picture has also changed. Choose to use side backlight, and then add reflector to shoot, so as to set off the ambient atmosphere.

3. The living room has a large space and various lighting methods, but the lighting principle remains unchanged, that is, there is only one light source in front of the protagonist (front or side), and the other lamp and reflector are used to outline or supplement the scene light. The shooting location can be chosen on the sofa, on the carpet or in front of the window.

4. In some scenes, the lighting effect is very good. In order to show the atmosphere of the scene, the flash is not used when shooting, and only the reflector is used to fill the light properly.

Second, understand the home style

In the communication with customers in advance, we mainly know their home decoration style and lighting situation, so as to choose photographic equipment reasonably. This is very important. For example, if the customer's home environment is dominated by Chinese style, it is necessary to consider whether to bring several background light sources to set off the background atmosphere in addition to the commonly used lamps. For the simple and modern home decoration style, the color tone will be mainly light. If the lighting conditions are good, we will try to shoot in natural light, supplemented by lamps or reflectors, and the equipment we bring will be different.

In fact, this is not only a matter of choosing a few lamps, but also a matter of understanding the customer's taste from his home environment, and it is also a matter of taking photos suitable for his favorite style, which also has a great relationship with the later film selection and enlargement, because the enlarged photos hanging at home must be suitable for his home style.

In short, the most important thing in taking family photos is to improvise and there are no inappropriate scenes. Only by adopting inappropriate methods, knowing more and communicating with customers can the home photos taken be more pleasing to customers.

Third, late adjustment and design.

Our common method is to splice two or more pictures together to make them more interesting.

1. Put two photos together, create a mask, and use the gradient tool to blend the two photos together.

2. Use the curve tool to highlight the hue of the merged picture properly, and then use the color scale tool to warm the color slightly.

3. Use the stamp tool to slightly modify the baby's skin. Pay attention to the photographer's light and shadow and the baby's outline when repairing. Then make some adjustments to the color of the baby's skin to make the baby's skin look more pink and transparent.

4. Gaussian blur the background and soften it appropriately. Let the characters stand out. Add a soft light to the whole picture.

5. Cooperate with decorative words to balance the picture and make the finishing point.

Four, two kinds of light distribution methods

1. Main light+auxiliary light:

The layout of the flash lamp should simulate the field light source as much as possible. Usually, the light in the home environment comes from above, so it is advisable to hit the main light on the upper side of the character and fill the light on the other side with a reflector; The auxiliary light directly shines on the ceiling, producing soft reflected light, which is used to outline the figure and make the figure jump out of the background.

2. Natural light+reflector: Large windows are very important shooting places in family shooting. Under normal circumstances, we shoot with natural light and reflector, and the picture effect is clean and bright. If the weather is not very good and the window light is not very bright, we need to use a flash as the main light.
