Using the pillars of the corridor and the lines of the roof as leading lines, you can capture full-body or half-body shots, but I personally feel that full-body shots look better and can better showcase the elongation of the corridor. Try shooting from a low angle to emphasize the height and grandeur of the corridor, which can also make the person appear taller.

1. Equipment: Fujifilm XT30II + 18-55mm lens.
2. Admission: Entrance ticket only, 10 RMB per person.
3. Pose: Have the model perform natural movements and expressions to avoid stiff and unnatural poses. Capture moments that convey the beauty of Chinese aesthetics.
