Portrait




Just a few simple tips sharing with you all for portrait like above.
1. Try to use lenses with focal length from 85mm to 135mm. These lenses give you a comfortable working distance between you and your model.

2. Lenses with maximum aperture of f2.8 or larger. Large aperture lens can make shallow depth-of-field. The background will go blur and make your subject more outstanding.
3. Always focus on the eye nearest to the camera.
4. Make sure there is sufficient light falling on the subject face.

5. Pay attention to the background when you compose your shot. You don't want any tree branchers or lamp pole poking out from your subject head.
