What photography methods are suitable for children?

No matter what subject you shoot, there is no difference between good and bad light, only suitable or inappropriate light, and so is the light used by children. For example, although daylight illumination brings a sense of plane and lacks a sense of space, it is no problem to shoot daylight illumination in children's photographs that do not need a sense of space. Side light, side backlight and backlight can bring a sense of space and three-dimensional sense, but if you blindly pursue the angle of light and ignore the expression and action of the characters, it also belongs to the opposite direction. For another example, although the scattered light on cloudy days lacks directionality, it can euphemistically express details. It can be seen that the lighting needs to be determined according to the theme of the work, and the lighting mode that is most conducive to expressing the author's feelings and expressing the characters should be selected according to the site conditions.

2. High-profile tone

High-profile, as a classic tone form, needs to control the whole picture in bright white, white and light gray tones in children's photography, which can give people a bright, fresh or bleak and pale feeling. But the proportion of black and gray tones in the picture is very small. Although the area is small, it is often easy to become a visual center. High-profile photos can be divided into soft high-profile photos and hard high-profile photos. Soft and high-profile pictures have little difference in tone, and can show the hierarchical structure of the main body in detail. Hard and high-profile pictures have few tone levels, and the bright and white parts can be white to no details. In the framing of high-profile figures, a large area of high-profile figures is formed by bright white background or companion, and then exposed according to the main part. Generally, the exposure level of 1-2 is increased on the basis of average metering or central dimming.
