Hanging clothes is to hang clothes on a rack to take pictures. This requires a piece of background cloth as the background color. Some sellers also hang them directly on the wooden wall to take pictures. Then you basically need two lights for lighting. Generally, the auction houses are small sellers, so the investment is not very large. Two 135W four-lamp always-on lights will solve the problem. When the light is turned upward, you should place the two lights at a distance of 1.5 meters to 2 meters from the object being photographed. The distance between the lights is the size of the object being photographed. The camera is centered and the distance is adjusted according to the size of the subject. In this way, the light distribution is even and the color of the clothes can basically remain original.

In addition, when shooting summer clothes, you can put some towel-like stuffing inside the hanging clothes to make the clothes look more layered.

Of course, if conditions permit, the power of flash photography will increase a lot, and flash is better than a constant light source. But if you use flash, you must have a SLR camera. Card machines cannot use flash.

Tiling is to lay the clothing flat on a shooting board or the floor to take pictures. It is best to buy a KT board and hang it at a 30-degree angle to allow light to penetrate from the back. In addition, there will be no proportional imbalance between near and far. For tiled floors, the lighting arrangement generally puts the light down from above, the distance should be closer, and the clothes should be photographed parallel to each other. The focus should be on reflecting the texture of the clothes. Generally, the exposure is dark, which means it is better to "under" a little, but not too much. Details will be lost beyond that.

Also consider color. Among them, red, black, and blue all need to adjust the height and movement of the light, especially the purple color, which is prone to color cast. The lighting needs to be adjusted several times to get satisfactory results. The two auxiliary lights illuminate the edges of the object, and then the main light is aimed at the subject. The camera is parallel to the main light, and the distance is adjusted depending on the size of the furnishings. The pictures taken in this way are also very full when cut out. When shooting tiles, it is enough to have three 135W always-on lights. It is best to have one main light and two auxiliary lights.

Although a constant light can be used as a simple tool for photographing clothing, if you have higher requirements for pictures, then use a flash to take pictures. In this case, the effect will definitely be better than a constant light. .

This lighting technique is to put a flash on one side of the shooting stage and a KT board (reflective) on the other side. The background color of the picture taken in this way is pure white, and there is no need to do post-cutting processing. The pictures taken are also clear.

Clothing model photography is more complicated than the first two types of photography, but online store clothing model photography is different from professional model photography. Clothing model photography emphasizes the personality and texture of clothing, while professional models focus on body shape. and refraction of light on the face. Clothing models have higher lighting requirements than clothing flat lays and hanging shots. Because the subject of the model shooting itself is large, and the clothes need to have a three-dimensional effect when worn on the body, which will show the shadow parts, this requires higher power of the light. It is strongly recommended to use flash for shooting, at least three lights with a power of 300W or more.

The main light is a single lamp and two lamps are used as background light. As shown in the picture above, under normal circumstances, the background is a flat monochromatic background and a flat figurative background. At this time, the light position of the main light changes more. When the picture tone is required to be brighter. The light position of the main light can be as close as possible to the camera; when the subject is required to have a stronger three-dimensional sense. The light position of the main light can be a front side light of about 90 degrees; when the picture requires a strong three-dimensional sense of space. The main light can be used in the side backlight position. But at this time, it is best to have a darker background tone, and these techniques must be adjusted by yourself during shooting.
