How to take pictures in portrait photography

Many friends always feel that their photos are not good-looking when they first come into contact with portrait shooting, but they don't know what the problem is. Friends who have the same problem can pay attention to the composition and cropping of photos. If the proportion is right, the picture will naturally look good. Today, I summarized the composition skills of six figures. Generally speaking, just don't cut the position of the joint ~

I. Close-up

Wrong demonstration: cut the neck of the character, leaving only one head, and the whole picture will be very strange.

Correct close-up shooting: you can shoot from above the chest,

But pay attention to the model's expression.

Second, close-up view

Wrong demonstration: cutting at the hip bone will make the upper body of the figure very long and out of proportion.

Correct close-up shooting: you can shoot from above the waist, pay attention to the hand movements of the model and the expression of the model.

Three-seven portraits

Wrong demonstration: cutting at the knee joint will make the figure 50-50 scale uncoordinated.

Correct seven-point shot: you can shoot the position of the thigh upwards, and you need to pay attention to the overall posture of the character, especially the movements of the legs.

Four or nine portraits

Wrong demonstration: cutting at the ankle joint, the body proportion can not be modified, and it is not friendly to short models.

Correct seven-point shooting: you can shoot the position of the calf, hide the true height of the model, and be friendly to petite models.

Verb (abbreviation of verb) panorama

Wrong demonstration: the head and feet are cut off, and the overall picture is incomplete, which makes people feel very strange.

Correct seven-point shooting: when shooting, pay attention to leaving some spare space on the top of your head and feet, and pay attention to your body posture.
