Photography Tips
Shooting Tips: The model should stand on flat ground while the photographer stands two arm lengths away, using a 2x/medium-telephoto lens. Shooting Time: 3-5 PM, when the lighting is better. Shooting Gear: Fuji XE4 + 18-50mm f/2.8. Outfit Suggestions: The red walls and dark tiles of the Forbidden City create a solemn atmosphere, making it ideal for traditional Hanfu or modern Chinese-style clothing. Simple, everyday outfits also work well. Posing Tips: If you’re unsure about poses, try looking down at the camera, gazing up at the sky, or looking down at the ground.
