1. Shooting Angle: The photographer stands directly in front of the subject, at a height similar to the subject’s height.
2. Composition Techniques: Utilize symmetrical composition, with the building’s twin pillars, stone lions on both sides, and display boards forming a symmetrical frame, enhancing the stability of the image. Additionally, employ framing composition, using the doorframe to highlight the subject. Contrast composition is used by contrasting the subject’s black and white striped shirt with the red brick wall and green sign, making the subject stand out.
3. Lens Usage: Use a standard lens to accurately capture the proportion and spatial relationship between the subject and the surroundings.
1. Travel Tips: For indoor photography, it’s recommended to go around 10:30 AM when there are fewer people.
2. Posing Tips: In a cozy, atmospheric cafe, a side profile shot is more atmospheric than a frontal shot. Position the light at a 45-degree angle to the left or right of your face to achieve the same lighting effect as in a Wong Kar-wai film (more three-dimensional facial features).
3. Additional Tips: No flash is needed; use indoor lighting and natural light from windows for the best results.
