How does portrait photography make ordinary people look like stars?

A star usually refers to a well-known and popular actor in the entertainment circle. Stars are highly concerned and sought after by people because they perform well or sing well. Second, because most stars have higher face values. Third, it is because the clothes, gestures and smiles of the stars are particularly "fan" and often lead the social fashion. Naturally, the personal photos taken by many female stars are also the extraordinary temperament of absolute beauty. They are beautiful, radiant and very pleasing, and they are also the "role models" that many girls envy and try their best to emulate.

How does portrait photography make ordinary girls look like stars? This is the dream of many ordinary girls. This dream needs photographers to help girls realize it.

So what should a photographer do? I think we can try it from the following three aspects:

First, the "strengths and weaknesses" method.

We know that most stars are one in a hundred, even one in a thousand, regardless of their face value or temperament, which is beyond the reach of most ordinary girls. But ordinary girls also have the advantages and advantages of ordinary girls, such as good figure, long legs and beautiful face. When taking pictures, photographers should highlight these advantages and advantages through more favorable gestures and expressions supplemented by shooting skills, and enlarge, blur and cover up some shortcomings.

Second, the "angle transformation" method.

If ordinary girls want to shoot the appearance of stars, they should shoot different angles according to their own morphological characteristics. For example, some girls are suitable for shooting the front, some girls are suitable for shooting the side, and some girls are suitable for shooting the back; Some girls are suitable for standing, some are suitable for sitting, some are suitable for squatting, and some are suitable for walking; Some girls are suitable for long-distance shooting, and some girls are suitable for close-up shooting; Some girls are suitable for outdoor shooting, some girls are suitable for indoor shooting, and so on. These should be based on the actual situation, and how to shoot like a star varies from person to person.

Third, the "clothing classic" method.

As the saying goes, people are clothes and horses are saddles. Ordinary girls take photos like stars, and dressing is also very important. Because the stars are dressed exquisitely, they need to show their beauty and temperament by dressing up. Photographers should pay special attention to girls' clothes and hairstyles when taking "star photos" of ordinary girls, so as to guide girls to dress closer to some characteristics of stars and shoot ideal results.
