The model sits on a bench in the arcade, where the dappled sunlight falls. The photographer stands at a slight distance, shooting the model at eye level through the gaps in the branches, creating a shallow depth of field that blurs the foreground and highlights the subject. Using a frame-within-a-frame composition, the arcade window frames the model and separates the background, adding depth to the image. The blurred flower branches in the foreground enhance the atmosphere. The camera's 85mm lens or the phone's 3x zoom is used to emphasize the subject and blur the flower branches in the foreground.

1. Shooting Equipment: Fuji XE4, 18-50mm f/2.8 lens.
2. Posing Tips: You can look directly at the camera, look up at the sky, or take a side profile shot, which is model-friendly.
3. Travel Tips: The best time for shooting is around 15:00, when the sunlight is ideal.
4. Outfit Suggestions: A simple, light-colored outfit works well.
