The model sits on a bench, facing the photographer, who stands at a proper distance directly in front of the model. Use a centered composition with the model as the focal point, and a lush flowering tree as the background to highlight the subject. Employ a medium focal length lens to clearly capture the model’s posture, clothing details, and the scenery of the flowering tree. Travel Tip: It’s best to go and shoot after 9 AM, as the sunlight doesn’t reach the tree canopy before that time, which can reduce the atmospheric feel.
