Photography Tips
The photographer should maintain a distance of about 3 meters from the model, shooting from a low angle with the camera slightly below the model's chest to highlight the contrast between the mirror and the frame. When composing the shot, place the model on the left side of the frame, with the mirror and frame on the right, creating an echo and enhancing the depth of the image. It is recommended to use a 50mm lens on a camera or a 2x zoom on a phone to emphasize the main subject and avoid a cluttered background. 1. Pose: The model should naturally rest one hand on the frame, look towards the frame, and slightly lean towards the mirror to enhance the narrative feel of the image. 2. Opening hours: Monday to Sunday, 13:00-19:00. 3. Outfit suggestions: ① Women: Recommend wearing corduroy wide-leg pants + a lace-collar shirt + a newsboy hat. Dark red or dark green are more photogenic. ② Men: Can wear a tweed check suit + round glasses + a leather briefcase, unbuttoning one button for a more casual look.
