Portrait photography B

1. light for portrait
In addition to physical modeling, portrait light is also an important factor. Compared to landscape photography, the light of portrait photography is more freedom, because the changing natural light is possible to get only wait, but people could walk around, different angles to create different shapes of light effects, not to mention indoor lights can also be mobilized Portrait a variety of sources to create a shadow effect of the vagaries of me. If the direction of light exposure from the point of view, the positive more than just portrait photography using a light. Although the following comparison of light levels, it is difficult performance of three-dimensional, but a positive light more favorable to the reduction of color, especially for the performance of female skin smooth. A positive light not only look delicate white skin, but also face look more plump thin. 45 °front side light in portrait photography using very broadly, it has some of the lighting area, also have a convex face, three-dimensional sense of tone levels, lines, contours and so much more rich. If the side of the face was three-quarters, the light from the other side of the shot, the light for a quarter and three quarters of the face, the face of all the local, which is typical of Rembrandt light light law . This light, with dark backgrounds, make the characters shine. Rembrandt light used more to male images, showing a strong and resolute temperament. Portrait photography also frequently use the backlight to separate characters and background. Strong backlight can change people's face and describe the variety of hair out of hand contours seedlings will be pushed to the audience in front of people. When backlight used as the main light, the face tend to be dim and need another fill light, but the fill light can't be too strong, as it will dilute the backlighting effect. For family indoor shooting portraits, you can prepare yourself a few simple lighting. Because the brightness of these lights is not very high, so best to use a tripod when shooting sticks to steady the camera. Ideal synchronous flash of light is of course, but the price is relatively high. In outdoor portraits, 3-4 pm and 9-10 am is the ideal time, people can turn the body or face, to get a good lighting effects. In addition to illumination angle, man should also pay attention to the photographic light texture, that is, the difference between direct light and scattered light. Studio and outdoor spotlight in the sun is strong direct light, which is full of light texture modeling efforts, especially for shooting men and the elderly, and through the formation of thick backlight backlight and the shape of the side effects. The addition of diffusers, reflective umbrella studio lights to cloudy weather, the outdoor natural light is a scattering of light, its soft texture and delicate shape, rich layers, especially for shooting women and children. We can make these features as the best lighting effects photography.
2. The vivid portrait
Making a good portrait photography not only to master the Photography, but also to understand the psychology of the subject, by capturing gestures and facial expressions to fully express their personality. We shot the characters, most are not professional actors, one to many people before the camera, you will know what to do nervous, if not effectively guide, we can have thousands of people get a dull and pretentious side or portraits. Were removed to make the subject look restrained, the key is to distract his attention, make him forget that they are taking pictures, so that it can reveal the truth possible. When catch the people's look , often involves the mouth of the expression, that is the question of laughter and no laughter. If the shooting blindly who asked to be taken, "Wear a smile, then laugh", the results tend to make people lose their individuality. We do not exclude all the laughs, but as a portrait, we should pursue a normal beauty, between laughter and no laughter, is secret to anyone, and just be relax and natural, true feelings, they all laugh and not laugh is a minor. Posture of the body shape also looked very closely related to body posture first asked to relax as much as possible, then further guidance.

True feelings need to be guided, but the final achievement is to capture. Remember the famous Canadian portrait photographer Cashins' words: "People's interior mind, spirit and soul, sometimes in a flash through his eyes, hands and body shown - this is what need to be firmly grasped, as it is a fleeting moment.

Portrait photography A

The purpose of photography is to shoot a beautiful picture, so the photographer supposed to wait and shoot the photos only when the characters face, temperament all achieve the best, then the good portrait can generate.

1. Portrait of modeling:
when man shoot portraits, regardless of his movements or the posture is naturally true, what the camera lens captured is always a moment of the characters, including facial expression, body shape, and a tacit understanding with the surrounding environment. Figure Sculpture left, into the human mind will become empty talk. Shape from the classification of portrait photography, the head portrait most appropriate for the expression of facial expression, the half-length portrait of the most suitable for personality and attitude performance figures, the biggest advantage of the portraits is that the body can make people with the surrounding environment of the organic links, to facilitate create a mood and atmosphere of the picture. We first take a look at the shape of the face. The basic point of the face, from the horizontal point of view, can generally be divided into front, side and positive side of three-quarters . As positive as a passport, look easy to be stiff, but very easy to portray as a pair of positive communication between the mind's eye, if the figure who has a symmetrical oval face, the front can be satisfied as modeling results. If let the face turn left or right and the other side of the ears just can not be seen, that is the three-quarters of photography in the most common side shot. At this time the performance of both a more comprehensive image of a person's face, the face will change due to appear more vivid. Because of the hair and other factors, to the left or right, the effect will have an impact on the shape. There is a dramatic portrait of the side effects, as people usually do not see their own side, so your profile will feel strange, but also easy to feel disappointed. Particularly in the general population profile, and not the United States, the choice should be careful, this is equally important for portrait painting. In addition to the horizontal plane of rotation, the pitch of the angle of face is also very particular about. Overlooking the head slightly lower, compared for fat people face, so that face becomes thin it is, will easily lead to a cautious style soft effect. Then take a look at the body posture arrangements. A useful principle to remember: head and body do not form a straight line, that is when the body is facing the lens, the head should be slightly to the left or right number; and when his eyes to face the camera, rotate the shoulders should be allowed a certain point of view, or to tilt the shoulders up and down more, it would screen more dynamic. Such as the bust sitting shot, let people sit side about 45 °or 90 °, and then let the upper body towards the lens, produced by twisting the ideal curve. Portraits of the body should avoid the following standing position, while the center support legs should be emphasized.

In the figures, do not ignore the position of the hand arrangement diverse changes hands, it can either strengthen the characters look and can also play a decorative screen role. In a face-based portrait, the hand can be placed on the side of the face, or reclining, but the contact with the face not be too hard to avoid the facial deformation. In the half-length and body image, you can put your hands across their chests, or to hand on your hair, or lightly arrived in the jaw, can also take some small props, a lively picture. As the saying goes, "the hand of an emotional, second only to face", can be used as a reference when shooting.
