How about a special doll photo?

Hello, Logical Jeongyeon captures everyday life with pictures of dolls This is Lee Jeong-yeon. I came across cameras before dolls. At first, I wanted to take portraits, but no one taught me how to take pictures or where and how to get models. So wouldn't it be similar to a portrait? With that in mind, I practiced taking pictures of figurines that I had at home, and now I'm focusing on taking pictures of dolls.


A doll is my ideal ()

It is the best model that is strongly reflected.

The reason why each doll looks different and wears a different costume is that it strongly reflects the owner's taste. Most If you are a doll owner, take a picture of your wonderful doll and show it off on social mediaYou'll want to do it.


I also use photography techniques I've honed up until now to take pictures of dolls and post them on social media. I feel most proud when a photo of a doll I uploaded to social media gets lots of hearts and is recognized or acknowledged by people around me.


Because it's not something else, it's a picture of a doll

Model and The effort to set a time commitmentYou don't have to, and with the model I met for the first time today Awkward communicationOne of the biggest attractions of doll photography is that you don't have to do it, and you don't have to feel sorry for the model even if all the photos fail.


Dolls are smaller than people, so there are some things you need to be careful about when shooting. Since the focus area is shallower than a portrait, in order to shoot with the background I care more about aperture settings than portraitsYou must use. If you think and approach it as easily as taking a portrait, it's easy to get a picture that doesn't focus on your ears even if your eyes are in focus.


It's my first time, so it's okay if I don't know

If you're new to a camera or just looking to buy one, you'll run into some issues.


First, What are cameras and lensesI'm not sure if I should buy one.

Second, Pictures that are constantly shaky, too dark, too bright, and out of focus and are ruinedThis is imprinted.

Third, it's not ruined Somewhere plain and uninteresting photosIt only takes a picture.


These are parts that I have encountered countless times and overcome through trial and error while starting a camera and studying on my own. In particular, the third problem is homework that will keep you worried about as long as you're taking pictures.


If you join this course, it will be based on the trial and error I have experienced and the know-how I have built up Ability to diagnose student failures in advance and make their own prescriptionsYou can raise it.

  • The coaching ticket can be used for 20 weeks from the date of purchase.
  • If not used within the period, no refund will be given.


tripod

  • Most of the shoots you will follow while attending the class will take place indoors. The interior is a dark environment with less light than you might think. There are ways to use high-performance lighting, but first of all, if you are learning a camera for the first time, we recommend that you practice shooting with a tripod.


Additional components

reflectors

  • When shooting indoors, even when shooting using only lighting from the ceiling, an unsightly shadow is often cast on the doll's face. Like a tripod, it easily removes shadows and makes up for insufficient light without additional lighting.

Photo background+ stand

  • In puppet photography, the background is important. I have a photo booth with a well-organized background for puppet photography. If you find it difficult to organize these spaces separately in your home, I recommend the following products because you can easily create a great shooting space with just a stand and a background!

I'm posting pictures of dolls on Twitter and Instagram. I want to help those who bought a camera for the first time to take pictures of dolls or who want to take better pictures than they do now. I would like to share the trial and error and know-how I experienced while studying cameras alone.
