Shooting Tips: The model should stand in front of the door, and the photographer should stand two arm’s lengths away, using a 2x/medium-telephoto lens.
Shooting Time: Around 5 PM, when the light is excellent.
Equipment: Fuji XE4 with an 18-50mm f2.8 lens.
Outfit Suggestions: The Wanshou Temple has an overall solemn and dignified atmosphere, primarily in red, so a simple outfit is recommended.
Posing Suggestions: You can use a fan as a prop to avoid having empty hands. Some versatile poses include looking down at the camera, looking up at the sky, or looking down at the ground.
