Photography Tips

Using a centered composition, the model is positioned in the middle of the frame, with the lines of the red walls and the eaves of the Forbidden City forming natural leading lines that enhance the sense of depth. The photographer shoots from a level angle to maintain stability and clarity of the subject, while incorporating elements of the red walls and Forbidden City architecture in the background to create a strong sense of traditional culture. It is recommended to use a standard focal length or a 2x lens on a smartphone to highlight the color contrast between the subject and the background, enhancing the visual impact. The model’s arms are crossed naturally, improving the overall harmony and storytelling of the image. Additional suggestions: The light between 3 PM and 5 PM is softer, making the red walls more vibrant and the light and shadow effects better, which is ideal for shooting various styles of photos.
