Portrait photography cannot resist the temptation of images

Portrait photography is to capture the appearance of characters by means of photography, canvas prints especially focusing on the face and expression. Unlike other types of photography, the subject of portrait photography is usually an unprofessional model. They have to show what they look like, who they are, and even what they feel. The focus must be on the face of the character, not usually in the form of a snapshot, but rather a stable image of the character in a static state. Therefore, it requires great patience and understanding from the photographer to allow the photographer to interpret the perfect emotion required by the photographer.

Light and eye contact evoke a pure reality

Portrait photography requires two things: light and eye contact. Without light there would be no world, cheap canvas prints and without light there would be no photography. In order to make a successful portrait, you must have a deep and unique understanding of light. Light plays an important role in shaping the image, emotion and social role of portrait photography. The use of light, say simple, use really good but very difficult. The difficulty lies in the "wonderful" state of light illumination, which can only be seen, but can be "said" out of the picture through the result of "seeing".

Although the use of light varies a lot during shooting, it is actually only the basis of portrait photography. Its artistic expression is not only between light and shadow and composition, but also on the two characters of divination. Among them, the most important thing is the look of the characters, especially the eyes. As the saying goes, eyes are the window to the heart. A person's emotional and emotional transmission can pass through the eyes, showing how important eyes are to a person. Also, in portrait photography, how to control the lighting of the eyes is crucial. Different angles of light, the effect is different.

If the main characters in the picture and the lack of the eyes of interaction and communication between viewer and portrait just "be", the lack of appreciation at the same time be dated "gazing at" psychological feelings, how much can reduce some portraits of the charm.

Portraits interpret character stories

Portrait photography reveals the photographer's style and personality. Why are different people shooting different works when they are in the same time and space, standing at the same Angle and facing the same characters? That's the difference between a photographer's personality. An outstanding portrait photography works always have a power to express the inner spirit of the subject, which can transcend the barriers of time, space and language culture and convey simple and universal information.

Portrait photography reveals the personality of the photographer

Every good portrait photography has its own unique language, which solidifies themes, scenes and creative techniques in a single moment and firmly captures the reader's attention. Whether elegant or aggressive, sinister or obscure, they all face the reader directly. Moreover, each subject's story is different. You can read many stories from the eyes and faces of people in portraits, and see many vicissitudes that make you instantly attracted to their charm.

Portrait photography is not commercial art photography

Portrait photography is realistic, but it is not immovable. It must have creative connotation. Portrait photography should break through the frame of "being young and beautiful" and try to show the "spiritual beauty" and "facial beauty" of the characters, emphasizing the expression and characterization of the characters' character and temperament. The inner thoughts, spirit and soul of a character are sometimes expressed in an instant through his eyes, hands and body, which is exactly the most important moment to capture. A good portrait photography is to rely on level, rely on tone to embody its artistic quality, tone or tone is the key to the expression of artistic lasting appeal, missed it, photographs lack the reiki, without touching charm.

It's different from the art photos we're taking in the studio. The "art photos" we usually see are not even like ourselves. Not only is the face smooth and white, but even the facial features and face shape are also heavily processed. This photo only gives the subject opium-style false satisfaction. In addition, commercial art photography can break away from the original appearance of characters, abandon the core of the authenticity of image recording, and also get away from the essence of photography art.

The key to portrait photography is empathy

Sometimes, photographers find portrait photography difficult to grasp in the process, because the subject is not a model, not easy to shine. At this time, communication is very important, it determines the quality of the work. Through the conversation between communication and observation, the photographer to the background of the subject, character, and the understanding of some daily behavior is very important, after understanding, must be subject to those memories and experiences of the past. In this way, the story of the person's eyes and actions will be revealed in your work.

Everyone should try to take portraits

Portrait photography, outside-in describe a person's appearance, temperament, character, heart, go deep into the moments of emotional, life experience, status and social background, by comparison with light, composition, and perspective, and so on, a lively appear on the screen, because the real natural and become instant eternal, because of blocking the passage of time and become a memory of a password.

On the one hand, it's almost completely commercial: even a free portrait implies an unmitigated commercial significance. On the other hand, it is artistic, Landscape Canvas Wall Art Prints and the photographer who can take a good portrait can almost walk into the palace of art with both feet -- even in the cloakroom. Therefore, whether we focus on portrait photography or not, we should try to do portrait photography.
