Photography Tips
The model stands next to a street lamp, with the photographer about 2 meters away, positioning the camera slightly low for an upward angle. 1. Travel Tips: In spring and summer afternoons, this location is suitable for shooting with the sun behind the photographer. Morning or midday is recommended to avoid backlighting, which can make the model squint. 2. Outfit Suggestions: Wearing traditional Hanfu or a Warring States period robe is highly recommended for a more authentic atmosphere. 3. Additional Tips: Adjust the camera aperture to a smaller setting to capture a clearer view of the city walls in the background.
