Seize the window of the soul and take a good picture of a portrait's eyes.

The eyes are the windows of the soul, which can convey all the information of the characters. How to grasp the window of the soul and take a good picture of people's eyes?

First, the use of eye light.

Eye light has become the bright spot of the picture, which has opened the level.

When shooting a portrait, no matter what light source is used, as long as it is in front of the subject and has enough brightness, it will be reflected into the eyes, and a reflection point will appear, thus forming a vision. The effects of various eye lamps vary greatly. Small bright light is pleasant, wide light is soft, and unlit eyes are like deep pools. Eye light should be balanced, one eye should not have light, and the other eye should not have light. The position of the light source should not be too high, otherwise the two eyes are not on a horizontal line, and one eye may not shine.

Second, the rendering of the ambient atmosphere.

Light and shadow determine the tone of the picture and match the mood of the characters.

To highlight the charm of human eyes, the rendering of the environment in the picture is very important, and the key point of the rendering environment lies in the processing of light. Light plays a key role in the expressive force of photographic art modeling, which can effectively shape characters and is a powerful tool for photographers to express their thoughts. Photographers can use light to set the tone for the picture. At this time, they can mobilize the mood of the model and let the model show charming, uneasy and angry emotional eyes according to the needs of shooting.

Third, blur the background.

The vague background locks the realization of the viewer in the eyes of the characters.

As we all know, the purpose of making shallow depth-of-field blurred background with large aperture is to highlight the main body of the picture. In this kind of portrait photography, especially when shooting the head of a person, we can focus on the eyes of the person and highlight the close-up of the eyes of the person. If your blurring effect is good enough and the expressions of the characters are helpful enough, such works will certainly attract people's attention.

Fourth, makeup matching

Naked makeup can focus directly on the eyes.

A lethal shape needs a combination of shape and makeup to show its ability. If you want to shoot the color of the model's eyes jumping, fresh and elegant nude makeup is the first choice. Naked makeup can dilute the color of other parts of the face and unify it into one color, that is, nude color. So the model's eyes naturally become the focus.

Five, highlight the personality

Snapping can get the softest and most natural eyes.

It is said that the eyes are the windows to the soul. Therefore, when you shoot people's eyes, you should pay attention to depicting people with your eyes. Looking directly at the camera with the eyes of the subject is the most direct emotional communication between the work and the viewer. Whether the work can impress the viewer and resonate with the viewer depends on whether there is content in this expression. Therefore, you should be witty in shooting, and catch the most real and natural eyes of the characters or the eyes that the photographer wants most.

Sixth, the way to look directly at the camera.

The emotions of the characters are directly projected on the camera.

Because of the different positions of the camera, there are many ways to express the direct-view lens, including: frontal head-up, lateral head-up, lateral head-up and so on. Among them, side-view head-up is the most abundant way to express the changing mood of direct-view lens in portrait photography.
