How to take beautiful travel photos

I believe everyone wants to take good-looking photos when they travel. So how to take good-looking travel photos? Here is the correct way to take travel photos, let’s learn together.

1. Look at the camera

Appearance and appearance are very important. Just smile and relax, don't squeeze in. If you don't smile, just show a slight expression. It is said that when you are not smiling, breathing in slightly with your lips will make you more photogenic, so give it a try. Eyes: They need to show their emotions. Many girls widen their eyes to show their size, but instead they look artificial. Cheeks: Pay attention to the angle. Large front faces are generally very touristy, so be careful to tilt them slightly.

2. Not looking at the camera

This is a science. The key to not looking at the camera is to create a situation and convey the mental outlook: either with thoughts or without knowing anything. The purpose is Make the story of the photo particularly strong. If your profile is particularly good-looking, you can turn your head more, raise your head or lower your head. Without looking at the camera, you can create a snapshot effect. But pay attention to your eyeballs. If your eyes are too slanted, the whites of your eyes will be exposed, which will reduce points

3. Be willing to do it

When you encounter local festivals, you must participate without hesitation, put down your body and enjoy the exotic customs . If you are willing to do it, the photos will become more intimate and have more unexpected effects.

4. Reference objects: local people

The reference objects are divided into local people and things around us. People are picked out separately because this area is very creative. Don't be rigid, be flexible and adapt to the people around you to show your personality. When you are with a child, you highlight your affinity, when you are with an artist, you are naughty, when you are with a serious old man, you are joyful. In short, you can either integrate thoroughly or achieve contrast in a drastic way.

5. Reference objects: objects around you, combined with innovative postures

Front, side, and back have become ordinary. Scissorhands has become a vulgarity. But the combinations that break the stereotypes are often unique and the temperament is vividly displayed on the film. Learn to use reference objects, your riding tools, small objects in your hands, and everything available around you

6. Emotional

Crazy, noisy, laughing, Jumping and shouting, injecting magnificent emotions into the beautiful scenery around you. The standard for tourists is to express "Well, I've been here before" in a very approachable way. This is not right. It should be, hahahahahaha I've been here before.

7. Use light source

Light is the source of all beauty. The light here refers not only to daylight, but also to street lights, neon lights, and even high-speed lights coming from the opposite direction. Photos with light will be alive and lively. Pay attention to the proportion of light and shadow. Using shadows to separate the images will create a more linear and narrative sense, and the atmosphere will be more realistic.

8. Lifestyle

Traveling is about sharing happiness. What a big misunderstanding. Think about it carefully, are standard tourist photos all grinning? In fact, sharing negative emotions is the opposite of taking tourist photos. There are inevitably many emergencies during travel. When facing these, people's feelings must be complicated, and most of them painful. Record and enjoy, this is really a rare life experience. The following is the girl's nosebleeds without warning when she was in Xinjiang, eating, watching the scenery, riding in a car, climbing snow-capped mountains, it flowed all the time. According to her, the nosebleed photo has become her most real memory.

9. Specialized perspective

Discover yourself with another perspective. Floor-to-ceiling glass, water reflections, mirrors, motorcycle and car rear view mirrors, etc. This is a mirror reference. Using unconventional shooting techniques and going off the beaten path can make your photos lively and interesting. This requires the photographer to have extremely high powers of observation, comprehension, and creativity.

The above is my introduction on how to take good-looking travel photos and the correct way to take travel photos. I hope it will be helpful to you.
