When shooting portrait models, what aspects will you start with?

I think the shooting of portrait models is mainly divided into early stage, middle stage and late stage. This is the communication design shooting scheme in the early stage, the shooting technique in the middle stage and the adjustment and retouching in the later stage. Tell me more specifically.

Portrait shooting is mainly about knowing what the model is going to shoot.

1: What does the photo she wants look like?

2. What kind of clothes does her temperament suit?

3: What kind of makeup should she wear?

4: What gestures should you design for her?

5: What color system does she like?

Once these problems are understood clearly, you can start shooting again. You must know yourself and yourself before you can win the battle.

Now it's time to talk about the mid-term shooting stage. As a photographer, don't shoot with the assembly line of the studio. First of all, you don't have the professionalism and team spirit of others.

In this case, you need to think more, shoot according to the pose of the model at the shooting scene, fully mobilize the mood of the model, and complete the whole shooting in a relaxed and happy atmosphere. It is best to shoot five or six angles from multiple angles in the same posture, and then choose.

This is the time difference between taking pictures with a camera and taking pictures with a mobile phone. Mobile phones can retouch pictures in real time every night. The camera must undergo professional retouching in the later stage.

Therefore, the post-retouching is the time when models can see their photos intuitively. At this time, the model needs extensive participation, and with her preferences and your professional advice, you can reach a balance point, that is, the finished product guidance you want to repair. Press this to make sure it's okay.

To sum up, I completed the whole shooting process according to the first, middle and last three stages, and all the processes involved models. What you think is not necessarily what the model wants. You need everyone to participate in order to make a movie.

The above are some of my personal shooting processes for portrait shooting.

Portrait photography is inseparable from preparation and communication before shooting, guidance and shooting during shooting, and post-processing after shooting. How to guide shooting when shooting, and what aspects should we start from? Let's briefly talk about the guidance and precautions when shooting models.

When taking pictures, it is not important to put forward various requirements. What is important is to quietly integrate various shooting requirements and ideas into the chat and guidance with the model. If the shooting conditions permit, I will play some music, one is to create a shooting atmosphere, and the other is to let the model relax and gradually enter the shooting state. In the choice of music, you can communicate with the model and choose some music that the model likes and meets the needs of shooting theme and creating corresponding atmosphere.

Models gradually get into the state, and after getting familiar with each other, they gradually try some relatively troublesome shooting ideas and angles. At the same time, in order to defeat the model's expression and emotion, I will tell some jokes appropriately. Constantly encourage and praise models, and sometimes capture models' expressions and sudden inspiration.

Several props will be prepared when shooting, in case the model is overwhelmed by nervousness, and in case she suddenly gets stuck and doesn't know how to continue shooting. Sometimes props are really unprepared. You can use some items and ready-made things on the spot as props. When a model has props in his hand, he won't know what to do. Interact with props, let the models play by themselves, and then choose the angle to take a snapshot. This is an emergency measure.

Everyone has different preferences and techniques. I usually take the easy first and then the difficult, step by step according to my prior thoughts.

Street view, choose specific scenes and costumes to capture the special hearts of the characters.

There are several portrait models in the author's works, which are basically snapshots. Every time he meets an inspirational figure, he will sincerely communicate with the model. He made an agreement with them that the author would adjust the leftover bits and pieces many times and shoot them, so that the model could choose the most satisfactory one, because shooting is to reflect the beauty, beauty, youthful beauty of young people, and they can all be the most authentic and beautiful people in the light and shadow records.

After 5 pm is best.
