1. Positioning: The model stands against the wall, and the photographer shoots from a side-backlight angle with the camera slightly below eye level to enhance the three-dimensional lighting effect.
2. Composition: Use the rule of thirds, placing the model on the left third line, while the right window frames create a repeating pattern and light-shadow contrast.
3. Framing: Choose the background formed by the red wall and window frames to avoid distracting elements and maintain the simplicity of the subject.
4. Lens Focal Length: Use a 50mm-85mm prime lens or a 2x camera lens to highlight the subject and light-shadow details.

Travel Tips:
① It is recommended to purchase morning tickets and arrive around 10 AM.
② Start your tour from the west route, have lunch at the Forbidden City restaurant, and then continue with the central and east routes.
③ The best time for photography is around 3 PM, when the light is optimal.
