Daily shooting skills of parent-child photos

Lead: With the advent of the national digital age, more and more people have professional equipment in their hands. As one of the special groups, Paiwa Party keeps taking pictures of babies in line with the idea of carefully recording their growth moments. Let's take a look at some baby shooting techniques.

First of all, about the importance of equipment

In order to take a clear picture of the baby and capture it more clearly, many people spend a lot of money on a bunch of heavy equipment, but they still can't take a clear picture. Why is this? Because it has something to do with shutter, depth of field and focusing, it has nothing to do with machine quality. Even if 6,000 sets of machines cost less than 4,000 yuan, you can take clear photos under the baby's high-speed movement.

Second, light and shadow are the basis of photography.

Numerous experts are emphasizing? Light and shadow, but how to master this? Light and shadow sound very abstract. In fact, it is also very simple, the most basic and practical, just profile.

Under the side light, the baby's facial contour is clear and three-dimensional. There are highlights to brighten the eyes, shadows to outline the five senses, rich in light and shade, and rich in layers. But in daily life, the sun is high and the ground has all kinds of diffuse reflection. How to find the sidelight? In fact, it is also very simple. Just find one near the single-sided window, such as the following one, "Boss, pay the bill! 》。

In addition, in the southern autumn morning, between 9:00- 10:00, the soft outdoor ceiling lamp can also shoot very beautiful side light.

Third, art comes from life.

In fact, this is also the focus of my sharing in writing this article. For me, photography is not a step-by-step shooting with costume props. Maybe we can film adults to do this, but children are different. It is also the art of life to let children shoot the most childlike side in the process of playing in some small corners. Can you imagine what kind of photos you can take in a messy balcony full of buckets, washbasins and brooms? Let me tell you something.

Do you think this scene is familiar to me, but I never thought of picking up the camera to shoot it. We often like to yell at children. Baby, look here. Come on, 1, 2, 3, fight. ? That's called posing, doomed to mediocrity? Life photos? .

Breastfeeding children should be a permanent pain in the hearts of a large part of parents. When feeding, the children hide, cry and make trouble, and are always so upset. So have you ever thought that it is actually a very artistic picture for a cat-faced boy to avoid the spoon fed by his mother?

In addition, patting a baby is still a process of getting down. When you stand condescendingly, the photos you take will always have only one perspective. If you know how to get down, be on the same level with your children, or even look up at your lovely baby, then you will also reap different beauty.

Of course, sometimes, what if the baby always doesn't cooperate with taking pictures? Never mind, I have a wonderful idea, too!

Finally, the parent-child photo can actually be taken like this.

If you are confused about taking care of your baby, I hope these can help you record a unique and perfect image that belongs only to your baby!
