The model sits by the pond, with the photographer crouching to the side for an overhead shot, using the rule of thirds composition, placing the model on the right side of the frame, leaving the left side for the water and reflections. Use a camera with a focal length of 50mm-85mm or a smartphone with 2x-3x zoom to highlight the details of the person while preserving the background environment. 1. Pose for the photo: The model holds a round fan, naturally letting it hang down, slightly turning her head towards the pond to add a classical charm and softness to the image. 2. Travel tip: The best time for shooting is around 15:00, so the model won't be exposed to harsh sunlight. 3. Additional experience: Use flash for the photo.
