The model stands slightly to the left of the center of the wall, with the photographer shooting straight on at a height level with the model’s waist, avoiding high-angle or low-angle shots that could unbalance the composition. Use the rule of thirds, placing the model on the right one-third of the frame, leaving space for the wall’s "Xizhou" text and illustrations as the main background. A lens focal length of 24-35mm is recommended to capture the entire wall background while maintaining the model’s full-body proportions. For the pose: The model should stand slightly sideways, turning her head back slightly, with her hands placed naturally to add a sense of story and interaction to the image.
