1. The photographer should position themselves about 2 meters away from the model, lower the camera angle, and shoot at eye level, using nearby leaves as the foreground.
2. For composition, try different angles using elements like foreground objects, mirrors, light sources, windows, glass, and seating areas.

1. Travel Tips: For indoor shoots, it's best to go a bit earlier, around 10:30 AM when there are fewer people. You can take photos without using a flash, utilizing indoor lighting and natural light from windows for the best results.
2. Additional Tips: In a cozy café, side profiles often create a better atmosphere than front-facing shots. Position the light at a 45-degree angle to either the left or right of your face to achieve a Rembrandt lighting effect, making your face more three-dimensional, similar to the style of Wong Kar-wai.
