On the last day of a sunny April, I finally started to take a photo that I had been thinking about. When the flowers in early spring were waiting to be released, my girlfriends and I discussed taking that photo this spring. I went to the photo studio for consultation and asked my friends to recommend me. This matter was finally finalized in late April, and it also experienced many entanglements.
The photographer who took this photo is very dedicated and professional. A photographer recommended by a friend took it for us. From the initial hesitation to the later confirmation, it can be said that the photographer's sense of responsibility during the period before shooting made me determined to start shooting at the end of April.
I vaguely remember that it was almost more than a month since my friend recommended me to be a photographer, added a WeChat friend, and decided to shoot the next day. In a blink of an eye, spring will pass. At the beginning of communication, there was no clear idea about when to start shooting, just thinking about the best time to bloom, and it was vaguely determined that shooting would start in mid-April. In mid-April, there is still some time to start communication. Recently, I almost forgot because of my busy work and forgetfulness.
One day in early April, I saw the WeChat sent by the photographer and asked us if we had decided when to shoot. After discussing with my best friend, the original date was one week before May Day, and I wanted to avoid May Day Golden Tourism Week. Unfortunately, because everyone can't afford the time, it is finally scheduled for the second day of the May Day holiday. Choose the Olympic Forest Park as the location. Think about the huge park, there will always be a place suitable for us to take pictures.
I have to say that photographers are really dedicated and responsible. One week before the appointed date, let's send him photos of several sets of clothes when taking pictures to help us make suggestions on how to match them (because we bring our own clothes, there is no limit on the number of sets, and we can take pictures for one day). This detail before taking pictures made me see the photographer's responsibility. This matter should be our own idea, and we should take the initiative to consult or ask.
The first time I took a photo, I had no concept of time. When we communicated the day before shooting, the photographer asked me when to shoot the next day. I blurted it out at eight in the morning. It's funny to think about it now. It's really too early, so I agreed to the morning 10. Later, I learned that it takes hours to take a photo, and many photos can be taken.
But for me, who didn't know that it usually took several hours to take a photo at that time, the photographer didn't refuse my request, but arrived on time according to the agreed time. We agreed to meet at the subway station 10, and we all arrived at 9: 50, because my girlfriend and I brought a lot of things, and the park we chose was not far from us. Didi took a taxi to the south gate of the park and didn't reach the agreed subway entrance. The photographer came over and mingled with us. At that time, he looked at the time. The mixing time is accurate to the agreed time in the morning 10, which can be praised.
Olympic Forest Park is a big park. However, in this sunny May Day Golden Week, it is really not easy to find an ideal shooting place without crowds. Some places have good scenery, but the shooting effect may not be so good. After entering the park gate, I walked a long way and finally found a suitable place to shoot.
At first, I didn't feel that the place I chose was very special, and I didn't see much difference from other places. The photographer said he took some photos. We posed a few simple poses for Shoot and saw the effect. It's really good, and a beautiful feeling of a small fresh girlfriend photo comes out, which is an imaginary photo feeling.
I have to admire that choosing a suitable shooting location is also a skill, perhaps after countless attempts and experiments, it is not suitable for amateurs to shoot. Secondly, I have to say that the shooting technique is quite good. As an amateur who is interested in photography, I can obviously feel the effects and feelings I see. I've played my friend's SLR several times. All I know is that the photos I took with SLR are not as good as those taken with my mobile phone.
The photographer's patience plays a key role in the girlfriend's pleasant photo trip. My best friend and I don't often take pictures, and we don't have much research and practice on taking pictures. The pose of taking pictures is a great challenge for us. After we put out the only pose in our mind, the rest of the poses were put out at the suggestion of the photographer. It's a miracle that we took hundreds of photos a day and made so many poses. The mantra of this day has become, what pose, I don't know, haha, it's another burst of self-entertaining laughter.
From the bright sun to the setting sun, and then to the starry night sky, we really walked all day. The photographer suggested that we pose and try our best to help us shoot the best results from all angles; We want to pose, and the photographer is trying his best to help us try to shoot the most beautiful side; There are also some casual moments of joy captured in the most natural state, all of which have recorded the most beautiful moments with the lens. After a day of shooting, I also learned that after posing, the photos taken in the most natural and relaxed state are the most beautiful without tension and affectation.
* * A tiring but happy photo tour ended at night, much like a one-day tour of the Olympic Forest Park. This may be the best state for taking pictures! Tips: Taking photos is a great test of physical strength. You need to make sure you have a good rest the day before and have enough to eat and drink on the day of shooting.
