Do you want to pursue it as a career or as a hobby?

If you are professional, you will first go to the place of professional training to learn the basics, and then go to the photo studio to practice, just after graduation, you will start as a photography assistant, and what you learn from the photo studio is the most practical.

If you have a hobby, just buy a book and read it.

The simplest and most authoritative way is to read the book first and practice. Like you, I recommend that you read the textbook of the New York School of PhotographyJust read the first volume. It's very detailed, and it's not comparable to second-rate books.

Photography is about composition and light, so let's learn composition first, it's easier to get started.

Techniques of portrait photography, such as the content of the Hu Xia:

1. Blur the background.

When shooting portraits, you can set and place the three values of aperture (large aperture), object distance (small object distance), and focal length (long focal length) to blur out the complicated background, so as to more effectively highlight the subject of the person.

2. Choose a concise background.

In portrait photography, the person is the subject that the photographer should focus on, and all other elements in the frame can only play a role in setting off the subject, so the easiest way to highlight the person is to find a concise background.

3. Select a topic.

Only by setting a photography theme in advance can you better help you carry out your photography activities. After having a photography theme, the photographer will not be entangled in the selection of models, clothing, venues, shapes, etc., and at the same time, the whole group you shoot can be more holistic and cohesive.

4. Pay more attention to the eyes of the subject.

When shooting portraits, you can focus on the subject's eyes, which will make the ** look more story-telling. In general, the eyes of the person should be placed one-third of the horizontal line of the frame, except for the number of creative figures. In doing so, it is easy to draw the audience's attention to the eyes of the characters, giving a very natural and comfortable visual experience.

The introduction and tips for portrait photography are as follows:

Introduction to Portrait Photography Techniques 1: Avoid direct sunlight.

Direct light is harsh, and it tends to make your subject squint and create thick shadows on people's faces. Shadows can be avoided by not shooting in direct light, and I've always been a firm believer that only soft light can depict the natural face of a person, and proper ** plus the right white balance can make your** more eye-catching.

Introduction to Portrait Photography Techniques 2: Be more careful when shooting on cloudy days.

Clouds are nature's softboxes, and the right thickness of clouds can enrich your ** color and refract unexpected light.

Introduction to Portrait Photography Techniques 3: Use Reflected Light.

Learn to control the direction of light, use reflected light, and try to simulate the lighting effects of a photography studio. It's not a good idea to place your subject directly opposite the sun, unless you want to get a sleek silhouette. An effective way to do this is to wait for the clouds to move to cover the sun, which often results in a very noticeable light-dark-to-noise ratio.

Introduction to Portrait Photography Techniques 4: Use existing reflected light.

For example, you can use a large white car nearby as an off-the-shelf reflector when shooting a slow shot, as long as it's not painted off-white. (A shade that alters white balance.) )

1. Traditional photography portal**.

You can go to the Internet to find some old photography portals**, these**, contain a lot of photography content, and it is also very miscellaneous, so you need to screen it yourself.

You can search by category, such as portrait photography, children's photography, and landscape photography. Follow some photography bloggers and influencers. They often post some works and tutorials, which can also be learned for free.

Fourth, read some photography tutorial books.

You can search for photography books and tutorials on the Internet and buy photography books with good reviews. Buying books and learning is a very cost-effective way. A book is fifty or sixty dollars, or seventy or eighty dollars, but it contains several years of shooting experience from a photographer.

5. Enroll in some photography courses.

Photography courses, which are divided into free and paid courses. Free courses do not mean that there are no dry goods, and paid courses do not mean that they are particularly good, and this still needs to be carefully screened.

My personal approach is:

Learn online. There are many aspects involved in this, such as the most basic aperture shutter ISO flash application, and so on. There is also a forum, which is to watch other people's ** and tutorials to learn experience.

Buy textbooks, now the Internet resources are abundant, I am all online, this benevolent and wise people see wisdom, choose the right one for yourself.

Take more shots. Just saying that you don't practice is a fake style, and you must take more shots to improve your photography skills. It's a good idea to have a camera and a calibration with you, see what you shoot, and then review it yourself or let the experts see and learn from it.

Ask for more advice, and if you see someone better than yourself, whether you are a master or not, you must ask more. They can't be thin-skinned, and generally aren't particularly stupid questions that others are willing to answer, so that they can also have a sense of accomplishment.

If it's just a hobby, it's not recommended to go to a photography class, and it's better to spend this money and time than to go out and practice by yourself.

Buy a book, or sign up for a class, and learn some basics and simple skills.

Then it depends on personal artistic literacy, so some people with art and painting skills will not be too bad in photography.

can only improve slowly, not to learn a few skills to produce a film. If you don't have anything in your head, imitate it first, be more optimistic**, shoot more, try different perspectives and ** combinations to slowly sum up experience, and quantitative changes cause qualitative changes.

If you want to learn technology, you have to shoot more, the best way is to go to the place where you buy the machine to find someone who understands to buy, and then take a good picture, go back and say that the effect is not achieved, ask for advice on how to use it, and slowly explore. When you learn the basics, you can join the photography association and communicate with the masters, and you will have your own style after a long time. It is recommended to use a prime head at the beginning.

50mm 100mm 200mm, those so-called study classes are simply to teach you to take some special pictures, and the people who come out are basically just a few photos, and they basically won't shoot in a complex environment. It's better to pick up the camera yourself and take more shots, it's better to look at other people's pictures and learn to compose your own shots. Learn to judge the environment you are in, what parameters to use, what shutter is almost the same, and if you want a flash, try to use a tripod and a simple reflective device.

If you are from a professional class, people start painting when they are young, learn plane composition, space composition, color composition, and the application of light, such as light quality, light angle, light ratio, etc., there is a way to follow, and others may have a master to get twice the result with half the effort. Studying art is very expensive, energy is secondary, and I envy others, in fact, I feel that I am also the material in this area, hehe.

There is also long-term accumulation is also very important, and the advantages of the people in the professional class are in this point, and the ideas are more handy and imaginative.

If you are not a professional, you can do it quickly, maybe it will be more powerful in the later stage, and communication is also very important, such as being able to ask a lot of people to shoot, and if you take pictures of the scenery, you have to be persistent enough, etc., there will be something worth learning or the spirit is more commendable, otherwise it will not be successful.

I learned from a teacher in Shenzhen, she won the second place in WPI and many other awards, the method is very systematic, very practical, I have changed a lot.

Well, if you want to be a photographer, you have to have a passion. When you have enthusiasm, you will naturally know it.

Internet, books, find someone to ask. Any way to acquire knowledge is fine.

At least that's what we teachers are aware of.

The first thing to grasp is the method of shooting, which is the hardware technology, and there are a lot of teaching materials on the Internet, and the rest is the soul of photography. That is, the consciousness of the individual, the consciousness of shooting, which can only be done by looking at the works of photographers and constantly improving themselves.

It is recommended that you go to a professional photography training school to study, if you are a photography assistant, most of them are manual work, and you need to cooperate with all the work of the photographer, such as moving and lifting, enduring the sun and rain outdoors, etc

Long hours of overtime and so on. The basic knowledge will not be taught to you in detail or not at all, the tuition fee is high and low, mainly depends on who you do in **, the learning time is relatively long, about 1-2 years, but as a photography assistant, you will learn a lot of commercial photography techniques, and you will have a clearer understanding of market demand.

If you study in a photography training school, the basic theoretical knowledge can generally be mastered in 1-2 months, and the later professional improvement can be studied in an internship or you can choose to study in a school (mainly depends on the individual's learning ability).

The school generally has free further study or free resumption, employment problems, the school can also help you solve it, and also provide guidance for entrepreneurship and store opening. The tuition fees in the school are generally divided into three kinds, the first basic course fee is generally 3-7 thousand, the intermediate course is generally 10,000 yuan, and the advanced course is generally some famous teacher-style courses, and the tuition fee ranges from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands.
