Home-time selfies
Not necessarily
All kinds of headshots, all kinds of stickers
I saw a blogger's selfie on Instagram
Mostly frolicking with shadows
That's wonderful

We'll come today
Set against a white wall in your home
Selfie created a shadow
gogo~
01.
Prepare for the first time
During the day, a white wall in the house is really just a white wall. At night, we can use the flashlight of our mobile phone to light up, and the monotonous white wall has the blessing of the shadow, which instantly becomes interesting.
Light at a 45-degree angle can better present the shadow of a person or object on the wall.
This time I used the vivo s9, turned on the front camera to shoot, and could look at the screen to adjust the posture.
There can be flowers, vases, mirrors... You can add it according to your own situation.

Shadows and objects coexist
A shadow is planar because it can only exist by attaching itself to a plane. When an object and a shadow appear in the same frame, this visual conflict makes the picture more dramatic.
①
We could put flowers and vases on the chairs, not high enough, books to put together
。 Make a gesture of reaching out to bouquet the flowers, so that the shadow of the hand appears on the wall. I used the "warm sunshine shadow effect" of vivo s9, and the picture sense will be richer.

Secondly, we can also take a pat on the side of ourselves. Because the light comes from the oblique place, the side contour of the face will be easier to photograph.
First straighten your body, then slowly turn your face around, exposing your shoulders. In this way, the overall shadow will give people a sense of balance, and sometimes even produce a novel visual experience.
You can also single-shot the side of the face, and the eyelashes are also beautiful ~ shadow plus flowers, one true and one false, interesting ~
③
We can also put a little double-sided tape on the wall and gently glue the flowers to the wall. Misplaced to reach for the flower, one real and one virtual, and then increase the relevance between the elements of the photo.
If there are no light and shadow effects on your phone, you can take a photo first. In the Wake up app ➟ Special Effects ➟ light, go and add the appropriate light effects. And I use the light effect that comes with the mobile phone picture editing.

Use mirror reflections
The mirror prop has been tried and tested. Put the mirror in front of the flashlight, in addition to the shadow of the mirror appearing on the wall, the mirror can also reflect light to the wall.
We can put the shadow of the face in this light, and it will have the effect of ghosting. Holding a dried flower as a decoration, the combination of virtual and real brings a certain sense of layering to the picture.
You can also put the shadow of your hand in the light, revealing half of your face, and the picture is as concise as possible. Therefore, the photo is more thoughtful and mysterious.
Photography is the magic of light and shadow, and where there is light, there is shadow.
The white wall loaded with light, the shadow slowly swaying on it, the time was pulled long and long, as if it could grasp the time with a single hand.

When the shadow meets the double exposure
Double exposure is actually a commonly used photographic technique. Refers to two exposures on the same negative: the first exposure, the dark area is not exposed, and then the content of the second exposure is displayed in the first dark area, combining a photo. It can make the picture have richer content.
Start by taking a side shadow photo on a blank wall. In more ➟Double Exposure➟ Superimposed Pictures (click +, find this shadow photo), the shadows will be heavier where the shadows overlap. You can also transform filters in style.
The double exposure of the shadow and the human body, the mysterious visual effects often make people indulge in it.
Depending on where the light is lit, you can use side shadow photos as overlay photos. When exposed twice, look at the screen to adjust your position. When you photograph yourself in, there will also be shadows on the walls. The shadows overlap, and with a little careful thought, the content of the picture will be more imaginative.
Those ordinary small movements can also shoot feelings, as if the shadow is another subject who can speak ~ looking at the shadow can make up a story.
If the shadow as the superimposed photo faces the right, then the human movement of the secondary exposure can face the left. One left and one right are not very complete, allowing you to see part of it, but more is hidden in the shadows, attracting reverie.
It can also be in the same direction, which can better express the expression of the character.
A white wall, coupled with generous (home-made) light, is able to shoot all night.
During the day, if you can have sunlight shining on the wall, you are lucky ~ you can also play a lot of new tricks with shadows. Sometimes, the wandering shadow may become a world in its own right.
The last day of the May Day holiday should also be happy ah ~ home friends may wish to try these creative shadow photos!
