The model is running towards the camera with her back to it, positioned in the center of the hutong. The photographer is standing at the entrance of the hutong, shooting at eye level to maintain a natural perspective and depth in the frame. The composition is symmetrical, with the walls on either side forming leading lines that draw the viewer’s eye to the model and the depth of the hutong. A 24mm lens on a camera or 1x on a phone is used to ensure the entire scene is captured while keeping the subject clear and prominent.

Pose: The model is running with a partner, their movements synchronized, adding energy and a sense of narrative to the photo.
