Photographic skills of landscape figures

1. Side light prayer posture

When shooting portraits, the rational use of light can improve the texture and expressiveness of the picture. When shooting from 4: 00 pm to 5: 00 pm, the model faces the light from the side and gestures with her hands folded in prayer under the sunlight. The face of the character shows a strong contrast between light and shade, which is very large, but remember to close your eyes, otherwise the strong light will cause unnatural facial expressions.

2. Is there any posture with scattered hands and feet?

When taking a close-up shot of a sitting figure, you might as well choose a place where someone is not clean, sit down, put your legs in front of the side and put your hands on your legs, so that you can shoot from the front of the model's side, so that your hands and legs will feel scattered, your body will have a certain angle, and your figure will be more beautiful.

3. Motion capture?

The best way to create a sense of nature is to avoid posing too deliberately, especially in the background of shooting nature. Deliberately posing will seem out of place with the environment.

It is more suitable for photographers to take snapshots. For example, taking photos in the Woods, you can make a gesture of picking up leaves, let the camera record this series of actions, and then choose a photo with natural body expression, which is very natural and casual.

Turn your head and look at the camera

It is said that if she just turns her head and smiles, there are hundreds of spells, and the posture of looking back is very suitable in any scene, whether it is sideways looking back or facing away from the camera. However, if the model's expressive force is average, it is recommended to look back sideways under static conditions, that is, to lift up and pose, so that the photographer can capture more pictures and the characters are beautiful and attractive.

Up 5,45 degrees

When shooting a bust or face close-up, you can use the posture of looking up to outline the facial curve. Like the girls below, hold the props in your hand and look up at them. Easy-to-learn posture can highlight the outline and neck lines, but remember to shoot from the side, the face will be short, and the nostrils will be photographed, which will affect the overall aesthetic feeling of the picture.

6, the hand must have a play

The way to relieve the camera embarrassment is to use props to disperse the tension, in addition to dynamic snapshot. For example, when you go out to take pictures, you can pick up the camera you carry with you and pretend to take pictures, so that your hands can play freely, avoiding the embarrassment of empty hands, and you can also create the feeling of taking pictures at will, which is very beautiful.

7. Show your face more.

There are also many people who take beautiful pictures. In order to avoid the clutter of the background, you can shoot from behind or close up to avoid the intrusion of irrelevant elements. However, if you take a close-up, you should take more side shots, because if you take a front shot, once the angle and distance are not well controlled, your face will be big and your facial features will not stand out.
