Photography Tips: The model should stand below the fence, and the photographer should position themselves about two arm’s lengths away, using a 2x/medium telephoto lens.

Shooting Time: Around 3-5 PM, when the light is excellent.

Equipment: Fujifilm XE4 with an 18-50mm f/2.8 lens.

Outfit Suggestions: The Temple of Heaven is mainly red and has a classic, ancient atmosphere. A simple outfit works best.

Posing Tips: You can use a fan that matches your outfit as a prop. If you feel shy facing the camera, try these universal poses: look down at the camera, look up at the sky, or look down at the ground.
