Photography Tips
Position the camera slightly below and behind the model, maintaining a certain distance. In terms of composition, place the model in the lower-middle part of the frame, using foreground wheat stalks to add depth. The sky and ground should be divided in a 1:2 ratio, adhering to the rule of thirds. Use a focal length of 85-135mm to compress the space, blur the background, and highlight the subject. Additional tips: Be sure to apply a thick layer of sunscreen, as the UV rays in Dali are extremely strong. It is recommended to wear light-colored or naturally styled clothing, such as a white dress, a rustic shirt with a long skirt, or ethnic-style clothing, to blend well with the wheat field background. Pay attention to composition, using the lines of the wheat field and distant mountains or sky as the background. Try shooting from a low angle to emphasize the layers of the wheat field and the natural posture of the person. Experiment with natural and relaxed movements, such as waving, turning, jumping, or gently touching the wheat, to showcase harmony between humans and nature. Consider using lightweight scarves, hats, or small props like books or bouquets to add depth to the scene. It is best to visit on a clear day or when there are plenty of clouds, with the optimal shooting times being early morning or late evening when the light is soft and suitable for photography. Remember to apply sunscreen and bring drinking water.
