Creative shooting skills of tilting the world

Legend: The final photo looks so real that it is hard to believe that it is actually made up of many elements. In fact, the tilted model, background and woman's right hand in this photo are the combination of the other five photos.

This creative photo is the brainchild of photographer Romain Laurent. One morning, when he woke up, Roman Laurent felt dizzy. However, instead of calling a doctor immediately, he found it very interesting. At that time, he saw that everything around him was tilted, just like in his photos, and the idea of shooting "tilted" works came into being at that moment.

On the basis of squint, he also needs a city with many lines as the background, but Paris doesn't feel this way, so he decided to go to new york, where narrow streets and high walls are exactly the background he sought.

With this concept, he started his own photography plan, inspected the appropriate location and looked for actors. When shooting commercial photography, he usually hires a lot of assistants and rents a lot of lighting and costume props. But this time he wanted to be closer to reality, so he only used natural light to let the model wear his own clothes to shoot.

Each photo consists of two shots: one shot is an empty scene without a model, and the other shot is an inclined model, at which time the model is supported by an assistant. Lauren is a perfectionist. In order to achieve perfection, he will shoot the picture elements to be repaired, which has reached the point of perfection. In this photo, the folds of the skirt, the perspective of the handbag, the gestures of the model and the glasses were all repaired after the remake. The part of the assistant covering the model's shoulder was taken while the model was standing.

In addition, the new york taxi in the open background, as a symbol of new york, plays the role of the finishing touch.

After Laurent returned to the studio, he synthesized photos in Photoshop, such as removing pedestrians, picking out people with pen tools, smearing out assistants, and finally adjusting colors and brightness to achieve balance.

Laurent called his art "realistic illustrations". For him, retouching software is like a brush to smear the real world.
