The model stands directly below and in the middle of the staircase, with the photographer positioned 2-3 meters away for a frontal shot. Allow the red staircase to spiral upwards into the frame, adding depth to the composition. For the pose: with a red color scheme being visually lively, the model can place their hands on their hips or interact with props, or gently touch their hair, using the spiral lines of the staircase for composition. Capturing movement adds vibrancy to the photo. For the best shots: the location is open 24 hours, and there are many attractive storefronts nearby. It is recommended to shoot around 4-5 PM when the light is soft. The red paint on the stairs has a strong reflectivity, and shooting with the light will make the colors more intense.

Fashion suggestion: A red and white color combination is very photogenic.
