Photography Tips

The model stands next to the stone stele, and the photographer stands at a distance of two arm lengths away, capturing the shot with a 1x/wide-angle lens. Note that when shooting at night, the person may appear darker, so a flash or fill light can be used to provide additional lighting. Shooting time: Around 8 PM (half an hour after sunset). Photography equipment: Fujifilm X-E4 with an 18-50mm f2.8 lens. Dress recommendation: The main feature of the drum tower night scene is the warm yellow lights reflecting off the red walls, so a simple outfit will suffice. Pose suggestions: Holding a sugar-coated hawthorn stick in hand can add a strong Beijing vibe; if unsure about what pose to strike, one can look down at the camera or look up at the sky.
