The model stands in the alleyway, and the photographer takes a level shot from a moderate position, using central composition to place the model at the center of the frame, emphasizing the subject while also capturing the sense of the alley’s extension. The background includes white walls and green trees, creating a soft contrast. A bouquet of flowers held by the model adds an extension to the hand movement, enriching the story of the image. Fashion tip: Wear light or forest-inspired clothing to complement the background.

In terms of composition, the subject is centered in the frame. The model is sitting on the ground with her legs stretched out and her hands raised above her head, forming a heart shape. A red umbrella is placed beside her, and her movements are natural and lively. The shot includes sunflowers on both sides and the wooden window frame of the flower shop, adding depth to the image.

Tip: It's recommended to shoot in the morning when the sun is not too harsh and there are fewer people. Once it gets to the afternoon, the area gets crowded, and popular shooting spots become overrun with photographers. Therefore, it's not advisable to shoot in the afternoon.

The model stands against a white wall, and the photographer crouches or shoots from a low angle. Use plant branches as a foreground frame, with the model’s head centered in the frame to highlight the depth of the image. It is recommended to use a 50mm lens to emphasize the subject while maintaining a blurred background.

The photographer stands about 3 meters horizontally from the subject, capturing the scene with the person as the focal point. The actions add interest, and the color coordination and contrast highlight the subject, while the background sets the mood. A medium focal length lens is used to showcase details and environmental characteristics.
