Photography Tips
The model stands in front of the vermilion door, while the photographer shoots from a high vantage point, placing the model in the lower center of the frame and using the leaves as the foreground. The entire composition captures the architecture in the background. Using a medium telephoto lens on the camera, the space is compressed to emphasize the close relationship between the subject and the background. 1. Equipment: This photo was taken with a Nikon Z6 II and a 28-75mm lens. 2. Pose Suggestions: The model can pretend to push the door or move back and forth for the photographer to capture the moment. 3. Travel Tips: It's recommended to shoot in the afternoon when the light is better. 4. Outfit Suggestions: Simple-colored dresses or neo-Chinese style outfits.
