What kind of photographic equipment does portrait photography carry?

Photographic equipment: When shooting outdoors, it is best to carry a zoom lens with a large aperture to ensure a better shooting effect. A portrait standard lens with a focal length of 85mm- 135mm is better. Generally, a lens with a focal length of 100mm is suitable for taking portraits with shoulders, and a lens with a focal length of 135mm or more can take close-ups of portraits.

Note: In the choice of metering mode, it is a common shooting skill to use the spot metering mode of the camera to meter the skin and then focus the eyes. When using spot metering, we can choose to spot metering on the model's face, and then press the exposure lock button on the camera to ensure the correct exposure, and then focus and compose.
