What's the difference between art photos and life photos?

The differences between artistic photography and photo photography are as follows:

1, make-up clothes are different: artistic photos are more artistic, with thicker makeup, more exaggerated shapes and more exquisite clothes. Portraits are often dressed in daily clothes, which are closer to reality and strive to show the true face of people, so they are called portraits.

2. Different styles: The styles of artistic photos can be divided into pure, dreamy, lively and avant-garde. Portraits can be divided into avant-garde, youthful, dignified, chic and so on according to their figure, age and temperament.

3. Different authenticity: In art photos, the cameraman found that people's connotation and characteristics can be fully expressed through angles, light, expressions, clothing, makeup, background and other techniques, so as to cover up shortcomings and achieve certain beautification effects. Photos are a true portrayal of life, striving for truth, natural expression, light makeup, dynamic snapshots and slight post-retouching.

4. Different shooting locations: Art photos have very strict requirements on shooting locations, such as shooting in spring and autumn, shooting in sunny days, or shooting in a well-decorated studio. Taking pictures is different. There is no special requirement for shooting location in photo shooting, and life can be recorded anytime and anywhere.
