Lead: Girls often complain that their boyfriends can't take pictures. Let me talk about how portrait photography can take good pictures of people.

How to have a good look at the five senses

If you want to look at people well, you must understand their defects. As long as the defects are filled, then this person will definitely look better than before. Then, to understand what is wrong with the face, we must first know what the standard face looks like.

Facial standard

Is the standard face actually? Three courts and five eyes? . Vertically, from the hairline to the eyebrow peak, the face is in court. From the eyebrow peak to the bottom of the nose, it is the atrium. From the bottom of the nose to the chin, it is the lower court. In the standard face shape, the upper, middle and lower courtyards are equal in length, the upper courtyards are too long for big foreheads, the atrium is too long for horse faces, and the lower courtyards are too long for big chins.

? Five eyes? Refers to the lateral width of a person's face, from the left temple to the right temple, with a total length of five eyes. Eye distance is also the length of an eye. Too long eye distance gives people a sense of dementia, while too short eye distance gives people the feeling of being sinister, narrow-minded and cross-eyed.

There are other criteria for the position and size of the five senses, such as the best golden ratio of the five senses: the ratio of horizontal, forehead to eyebrow, eyebrow to nasal root, nasal root to chin is1/3 respectively; The vertical direction is also equal to 1/3, and then the eyes have a certain size and the nose has a certain stiffness. The distance between two eyes is exactly the length of one eye, and the width of the eye is the same as the width of the nose.

Common defects on people's faces are as follows:

1. Eye distance problem: the eye distance is too close or too far, which is easy to handle. Just turn your face a little

2. length of nose: this is also simple. If the nose is too long, look up, not too much, and pay attention to exposing the big nostrils. If your nose is too short, just bow your head and nod, not too much, and be careful of your big forehead.

3. The length of the chin: This question is actually the same as that of the nose, so you can refer to the answer of the previous item.

4. The face is too wide: this pushes the lens to the telephoto, and then stands on tiptoe to make people nod, and the face becomes thinner.

5. Buck teeth: This problem is not easy to solve. Remember never to pat the side face. The camera pushes the telephoto and then shoots in the light, which can be alleviated.

6. Rough skin: measure the face and add two-thirds exposure. It will be much better when it is bright, which can save a lot of trouble in the later stage. The so-called white covers all the ugliness, which perfectly explains this point.

7. High and low eyes: tilt your head or tilt your camera. The solution is to confuse visual habits and look better.

How to shoot a good figure

Let's not talk about the problems on the face, and then talk about the body.

There are not many physical problems, most of which are too fat or too short, which are actually easier to solve.

1. Too fat: If you are very fat, you can't help it. If it is too full, it can be saved. When taking pictures, lean forward slightly and try to take pictures of your whole body, so that the photos will look good.

I feel more stretched, less crowded and look less fat.

2. Too thin: It seems that the problem is not big now. If it is too thin, take a pure front bust.

3. Short legs: easy to solve, get down and shoot, remember that the camera should not be too upturned, and the legs will become longer. You can also let people sit down, stretch their legs, lean a little to the side, and shoot from a wide angle to make the legs 100% long.

4. Short stature: you can shoot the whole body. If you have to shoot the whole body, kneel down and keep the camera level close to the knee. Don't tilt the camera up. In this case, basically people who are more than one meter five will be very tall. If you are less than 1.5 meters, take a bust.
