The photographer should position themselves directly in front of the Hello Kitty sculpture, at eye level or slightly looking up, to fully capture the entire sculpture. Use the pink buildings and Christmas trees in the background to add color and depth to the photo. Employ a standard lens to clearly showcase the sculpture's colors and details, such as the texture of the bow and scarf.

Additional tip: Taking photos at the store entrance is free, but entering the store requires a purchase.

Using a 35-50mm focal length, the photographer should be 2-4 meters away from the model. Compose the shot with the model placed on the right one-third line and HelloKitty on the left one-third line. The model should stand 3 meters in front of HelloKitty.

Travel Tip: In Harbin during winter, the sun sets around 16:00. After dark, the store will light up HelloKitty in purple, which doesn’t look as good. Be mindful of the timing when taking photos.
