=========================
【Classification terminology】
----------------
1, [classical aesthetic]
Since the body from the outset, photography and classical paintings produced dendrite branches spread of disputes, so classical atmosphere enveloped the body to become the first fashion photography.
Meanwhile, in the form of modern and even contemporary photography, classical atmosphere as a nostalgic mood, still filled with the lens at the bottom of many masters.
Even classical in a sense does not mean the restoration, and can become a fashion - fashion is always turned upside down, and after many years will always be a reincarnation.
From an overall point of view of technical means, the end of the 19th century Italian painting school photographer, mainly through soft skills such as to make the appropriate body to become shooting theme.
Some photographers also use some now lost classic printing processes, with its elegant and refined picture effect, resulting in the classical and romantic style features.
----------------
2, [partial close]
When the body out from classical photography mood comes, photographer suddenly discovered that thinking does not necessarily form a perfect whole to aid performance.
Partial fragment close-up, you can also make an ideal body photography to the other side.
As an aesthetic practice, shooting form of partial fragments, began in the 20th century.
In the 19th century, body composition, and a complete physical experiments are dominant academic, so as a painter and sculptor of the material. In the 19th century, photographers can not imagine that we recognized in today's body fragments.
From the later 1920s, many photographers began to focus on the local segment forms. Some photographers began to show a partial torso body, just the shape of the head or is excluded from the picture look so keep a complete body. This approach just will aesthetic of the 19th century came a reversal, when the head is where the center of interest is the dominant part of the body, the mind and spirit of lies. Perhaps it is as a rebellious attitude at the beginning of the modern photographer driven head first into a composition.
In a later form of local manifestations, can be formed roughly three categories.
The first
Fragments of realism, the body part is a very realistic target appeared, the emphasis is object clarity and realism.
The second
Local fragment formalism, the emphasis is on line, shape, size, abstract, and the body becomes constitute a material geometry.
Third
Deformation or partial fragments are blurred by local deformation of an illusion, so that body constitutes the vagaries of visual temptation specious.
----------------
3, [abstract and deformation]
In fact, in some cases partial close-up, also have the capability of abstraction possible.
However, as discussed in the abstract here and deformation, it is not limited to the concept of partial close-up on the same time in the form of a sense of handling and performance, the more diverse and has a more intense visual impact.
----------------
4, [ideology]
Ideology, body photography is actually a very broad concept, it can be a lot of styles of contemporary photography in which the body photography inclusive.
However, in the strict sense, this kind of expression, mainly to emphasize its strong subjective consciousness and the color is not compatible with mainstream ideology, body here often because of fragmented and confusing.
Early 20th century avant-garde art of the emergence of the concept of body photography process caused a great impact.
----------------
5, [self mirror]
Photography outset this analogy: "Nature's Mirror."
Despite the ubiquitous photographic image has made people lose respect it, but some photographers still continues to maintain a self-obsessed mentality.
So they will own body toward the camera, so that the body photography with such a possibility: a way to reveal the heart of the self-perception.
=========================
【Basic knowledge of terminology】
----------------
1 [location]
The characters shoot, we must first take into consideration is to find your shooting position. Select a point as a simple mid-tone background, leaves, grass or sea can be.
In order to make the skin darkens, you can find a similar colored background, so to keep people's faces light and bright, keep it simple backgrounds, will reduce patterns, shapes and colors to minimize, or with a special meaning to objects as background .
----------------
2 [light]
Try to make the sun is behind you, and if the sun is very bright, then let the characters in the shade, because the glare of direct sunlight will make people's faces look over partial white, not natural. If, at the light and shade of some dark, use the flash to brighten the face of the light.
The best time is in the afternoon shooting, when the light is soft and golden brown. At other times, you can add a color filter 81B or C SLR camera in order to obtain the same effect.
The most common technique is to your main subject in the shadows, and then use the flash to illuminate the face. You can also use a small mirror or white card to reflect sunlight into the shadows.
Sometimes you shoot in low light scenes with his back to the characters (backlit), occasionally very creative photo shoot, because the light will produce halo phenomena through the character's hair.
If you use a SLR camera indoors, so the flash away from the walls or ceiling light, in order to get a more natural light. If you are using a separate flash is best, but pay attention to place it in a place far enough away from the lens to avoid red-eye character generation.
----------------
3 [Lens]
If you have a SLR camera, using a 135mm or similar lens, you can shoot a picture most of the scene.
Use the largest aperture (lowest f- number), you can make the background blur, and let the characters facial movies on lighting effects. If the background is also very important, you can use a small aperture (high f- number) so that everything is on the focal length.
----------------
4 [Shooting location]
As close as possible and not to the whole people are shot down. If you are doing close-up, they can let people fill the entire screen.
Shooting at eye level in front of the characters can get the best results, so if it is for children to shoot, you need to kneel down.
----------------
5 [image proportion]
Under normal circumstances is to keep the eyes of the central character in the picture, if the characters look a little to one side, on the air out of the side with some other objects.
If the subject person of the strong contrast between light and dark, you can change the size of the aperture or shutter speed to control the flash of illumination on the film, for example, a large aperture, the flash of illumination on the film large; aperture is small, the illuminance is small.
Try to let you shoot people relax
Let the subject figures seemed relaxed, happy, try to get them to imagine something interesting. People do not like to wait for a long time, so you adjust the camera first, and then ask them to shoot.
----------------
6 [add fun to photos]
You can use many ways to add some fun or special effects in the photo, for example, you can rotate the camera 30 degrees to shoot, make the characters look as if in a very dangerous angle; or use a wide-angle lens to distort the character's face Department and so on.
----------------
7 [moving characters]
If you want to shoot that is moving figures, (for example a biker), you can deliberately blurred background images to emphasize speed. If you are using a SLR camera, you can use the middle of a slow shutter speed (1 / 60s).
=========================
【Role The term light】
In life and photography, just the most important factor of all images and color formation, it is the creation of three-dimensional universe is not the lack of factors. With the light, to make the human eye to see things in shape and color.
With light will produce a latent role in CCD \ CMOS in the field of human photography, under different light conditions and will figure drawing near visual sense to produce soft hard, so the light has played in shaping the character and characters the role of trade features.

But love hard tone texture creators, or landscape photography, etc., are permitted.

3 [scattered light]
After outdoor sunlight, or other coverings clouds into diffused reflected light, scattered light is called.
Indoor studio umbrella, shadowless hood or refracted light through reflectors, are all scattered light. This is a gentle soft tone of light quality, is an ideal light source body photography, photography can make the body produce soft beautiful skin texture effect.
Whether these outdoor light or indoor physical body polish method, lighting control technology photographers are frequently used.
