Eight Experiences of Photographer Training

In order to help you improve your photography skills more quickly, I have compiled eight experience summaries of photography training, hoping to help you!

Summary of photography training experience

1, photography training is different from tourism, so it is not appropriate to shoot many scenic spots and themes in a short time. With too much content shooting, it is easy for beginners to grasp the novelty, always thinking about where the next novelty is, but it is difficult to calm down, learn to slowly observe the characteristics and structure of the scene, and learn to arrange the story and content of the picture.

Many times, others shoot better than themselves, not because the technology is much better than ours, but because the observation, understanding and sensitivity of shooting things are much better than ours. This requires a process of calming down, watching slowly and understanding slowly.

2, what lens, you can take photos of the relative theme.

If you always ask others: What lens do I need?

At least it means you don't know what you're going to shoot next.

It is more helpful to spend more time thinking about what to shoot next, how to shoot it, and what feeling you like than what lens to take. If you still don't know what you are going to shoot after thinking about it, it means that you need to make up lessons in depth in aesthetics and vision.

3. Is it better to cultivate a correct and good habit of photography than to take a so-called photo? A blockbuster? Much more important. Let others teach you a blockbuster, and you can only get temporary gains. Establish a good habit of photography awareness so that you can shoot at any time in the future? A blockbuster? .

It is an obvious choice whether to get a fish temporarily or spend some energy and effort to learn how to fish.

But usually for the latter, you have to give up a fish for a while.

4.a file, S file is the simplest scheme at present, and M file is the fundamental scheme. With the deepening of slow shooting, one day, you still have to go back from A or S to M before you can move on. Such as filters, such as slow doors.

The advantage of skilled use of M file is that you can switch to A or S at any time; But people who can only use A or S may not be proficient in using M files.

All three schemes have their own scenes and themes, and which one to train should be decided according to your own needs and energy.

5. Don't send your photos to the general photography exchange group for comments. If you want to find it, at least find a professional with similar style and theme.

In the learning stage, besides training skills, it is more important to cultivate one's own style and personality. In the case of unstable foundation, contradictory views can easily smooth out one's personality and style. Finally, you may take a photo that is technically satisfactory and applauded by everyone, but it may also be the photo with the least personality and style.

6. Landscape photography is the basis of photography training, and morning and evening light shooting is the basis of landscape photography and the simplest light training. A little more advanced, it is the scenery shooting of diffuse reflection light on cloudy days, and a little more advanced, it is the shooting of extreme weather such as rainy days and snowy days.

When you have tried shooting in all kinds of weather and light, you may have a subversive new understanding of running out of light. My horizons will be broadened a lot, and I will not just stare at the light of sunrise and sunset in the morning and evening.

7. Humanistic photography, in large part, adds a story to landscape photography. The core of humanistic photography is people and stories. The deeper the content and meaning, the better the film will be.

The value of humanistic photography is not entirely technology, but the significance of social and cultural inheritance and recording. Just like a document, the test is not entirely a novel perspective, but more about the photographer's own cognitive depth of the subject.

I got the background of geography, folklore and culture from your humanistic photography.

8. At the beginning of photography, you only stare at the best photos, such as world-famous photography websites. This can train your perception of photography, light, shadow and color more accurately, and also improve your horizons.

Don't confine your eyes to a relatively small circle to communicate, which will make you form a fixed thinking and vision, and it is easy to enter the bottleneck.

People, it is easy to influence each other. This influence comes from dressing, living habits and subtle aesthetic and cognitive influences.
