Skills of shooting people's side faces

1, side view: This view can generally be taken as a half-length or full-length portrait, which can highlight the profile of the body. When shooting, the subject's body needs to form a certain side angle with the shooting lens, which is easy to show the figure line of the subject, and it can show the beauty of its curve for women, especially women with good figure. For fat people, when shooting sideways portraits, especially busts, the back of the subject can be close to the edge of the picture, and the satisfactory effect of hiding in the bunker can be obtained.

2. Side view: This kind of view is often used in portrait photography, because the shooting direction can not only show the detailed structure of the front and side of the subject, but also well show the outline ridge line of the combination of these two surfaces, so that the image, outline and three-dimensional effect of the subject can be fully expressed, and the image in the picture is vivid and changeable, and the whole picture has good dynamics and obvious visual directivity.

3. In silhouette shooting, because the silhouette characteristics of the subject can be observed intuitively, the silhouette of the forehead, nose, mouth, chin and other faces will be very distinct in silhouette portraits. Therefore, people with very beautiful sides are especially suitable for such side shooting. However, if the side of the subject is too big or too low, the bridge of the nose is too high or too concave, and the mouth is not straight or too sharp and too short, we should pay special attention to choosing the appropriate shooting angle at this time. Generally, the appropriate shooting angle for side view is:

4. 1/3 profile portrait: 1/3 profile portrait The line of sight of the photographer forms an included angle of 30 with the camera position. This shooting angle can show the five senses of the characters, and the characters can be vivid and lifelike. For the subject whose front face is flat or fat, this shooting method is more suitable if his Lisorius is plump, but it is not suitable when the subject's cheekbones are high.

5. 2/3 side portrait: 2/3 side portrait The line of sight of the photographer and the camera position form an included angle of 60. At this shooting angle, the camera position is facing the mandible, that is, the cheek position of the subject in the picture, and the whole photo of the subject can show a good sense of outline. This angle is widely used in portrait photography, because both thin people and fat people can avoid facial defects and show their most beautiful side, and can also give consideration to the overall portrait effect, showing the balanced beauty of the facial contour lines of the subject. However, it should be noted that people with big noses and high cheekbones are generally not suitable for this shooting angle, because it destroys the balance and beauty of the facial contour lines of the subject.

6. Full-face portrait: Full-face portrait The line of sight of the photographer makes an included angle of 90 with the camera position. When shooting at this shooting angle, the profile of the subject can be fully expressed in the most perfect way, which has strong dynamics and visual directivity, and the overall visual impact of the picture is stronger.

7. Shooting the subject from this shooting angle, the picture effect is almost completely different from the real feeling of human face, and it will present more outline lines from forehead to shoulder, showing the local effect of people. Therefore, the angle of full-face portrait is more commonly used when shooting silhouette, because it can avoid the fat, thin, beautiful and ugly characters, and it is also often used when shooting high-speed people.

8. Finally, it should be noted that full-face portrait shooting is generally not suitable for people with long faces or prominent nose tips, as well as people with flat noses and drooping eyes.
