Human eye shooting skills

People's photography requires vividness, eyes are the windows of the soul, and eye spots are the vivid focus of people's photos. Therefore, we must pay attention to the treatment of eye spots in the process of photography.

Generally, one eye point is enough. Eye spots are produced by auxiliary light irradiation in front of the subject, and there are many lights and eye spots. If you have too many eyes, your eyes will wander. Pay attention when shooting, it is best to have only one or two eyes. There is no light in front of the subject, that is, there is no eye spot. For example, when shooting people outdoors, if you use backlight, there is no direct light in front of your eyes and no eye spots will occur; If you use a reflector or flash as an auxiliary light, eye spots will appear in your eyes. The eye spot should not be too big, and the size of the eye spot can be determined by adjusting the intensity and distance of the auxiliary light in front of the subject.

Shooting skill

Eye spots should not be located in the middle of the pupil. The position of the eye point depends on the angle of the auxiliary light in front of the object. When the light is high, the spot position moves up; When the light is dark, the spot position moves down. If the eye point is just in the middle of the pupil, there will be a dull gaze, which is generally appropriate to deviate from the center of the pupil.

Shooting tips in order to show good eye spots, you need to avoid spots on the whites of your eyes. If the auxiliary light source in front of the subject deviates too far to the left or right, not only eye spots will not appear, but also long spots will appear on the whites of the eyes, which will affect the beauty of the eyes. In this case, this phenomenon can be eliminated by changing the auxiliary light source to an appropriate position.
