So, you armed with a camera, agreed with the model and go to shoot an art portrait? Take note of these city shooting tips. Some of the stories themselves beg for a photo shoot, but you didn’t even know about some. We give a portion of inspiration and ten best ideas on where to go for portraiture in the city.
1. Alley
Let's start with the most obvious. In every city there are parks, and in the parks alleys. Take a closer look: trees planted on both sides of the path are photogenic at any time of the year. Use telephoto lenses to enhance the effect.2. Cafe
We will not make a discovery if we write that the interior of the cafe can be used to reveal many images and plots.3. Metro
If your city has a subway, you're in luck. Conducting photo sessions without attracting too much attention is most convenient late in the evening. And this is not the only type of transport that can be used for photo shoots.4. Electric train
The train is also suitable for shooting portraits. The main thing is to catch time in the morning or evening light. The only pity is that he usually falls at rush hour.5. Railway station or station
Do not want to go? Take pictures at the train station. It’s better not to go out of the way, remember the fate of Anna Karenina.6. Tram
The theme of transport does not end there. A tram is a very photogenic mode of transport. Take advantage of this.7. Library
You did not expect such a turn, but ... There is a great reason to register in the library. Book shelves are the best suited for creating an artistic portrait. A bookstore is also suitable.8. High-rise buildings
Even if in your city there is nothing but sleeping areas, it does not matter. The rhythmic pattern of high-rise buildings will become a good background.9. Roof
If the ideas for photo shoots on earth are over, climb higher. A story like a portrait on the roof is not too new. And here it all depends on the imagination of the author and ... the roof itself.10. And finally ...
This technique was applied back in 1959 during the visit of Christian Dior models to Moscow. The idea is this: if you can’t find an interesting setting, an unusual background, play in contrast. This is just the case when to stand out from the crowd = get an interesting photo.
