Basic settings before shooting

There is much less light at night than during the day, which will slow down the shutter speed of the camera and take blurred photos. On the premise of taking pictures without extra light, you can make up for the lack of light by increasing the sensitivity or opening the aperture. As shown in the picture below, if people stand in a well-lit place to take pictures, then the sensitivity can be adjusted to ISO400~800 before shooting, and the sensitivity can be appropriately improved when taking pictures in dark scenes.

So how can you shoot a dreamy portrait at night? Need to pay attention to the following aspects.

First of all, the setting of white balance can be adjusted later by using automatic white balance raw, or you can use custom white balance. If the picture is yellow, we can adjust the k value by about 3000. Second, it is suggested to use a lens with a large aperture as much as possible to ensure enough light, which can make the background form a large spot. Third, the choice of focusing mode, automatic focusing may fail when the light is dark, and manual focusing mode can be used. Fourth, the safety shutter, if it is hand-held, try to adjust the sensitivity value, it is recommended to use below 6400. You can control the shutter speed according to the shooting environment, otherwise the photos will not be burnt, the quality cannot be guaranteed, and it will not look good if you can't shoot them. Fifth, pay attention to composition. The most commonly used composition in portrait photography is three-point composition, which is used to attract the attention of photos to the subject, avoid being overwhelmed by the background, and try to select fewer people.

It is more natural to add props.

When shooting portraits at night, if the characters don't know how to pose, they can use various props in the scene to interact. For example, when driving outside, you can relax by the car, play with your hair, or find some beautiful street lights or string lights as the foreground of the picture, which can produce good picture effects.
