How to take Portrait photos Tips and Tricks:
Taking photos of people is NOT as hard as it seems. Below are six simple tips to use to take better shots of people.
The key to taking great shots of people is to understand their personality and convey it through your photo. For example, if your taking a photo of a person that is shy, take that into account. Set backgrounds that celebrate her personality.
Don't use very "look at me" backgrounds or colors. Select more calm and cool colors such as blues and greens.
Also, the facial expressions also go according to that. It will be difficult to get a shy person to pose very "crazy". The result also will be a model that looks fake and unbelievable.
1. Make the person very relaxed
2. Be patient
3. Use the imaginary lines of the model to pose them right
4. Get good at taking silhouettes of people (you will get better at posing from this)
5. Don't over pose people
6. Use simple backgrounds - Either make the background very simple or use it to convey the persons personality. EX: happy person and rainbow in background. Sad person and rain in background.
