Shooting stance
Take a photo from the truth
Aiming to convey 100% of the attractiveness of the subject,
and don't make 150%. I have a shooting stance that my photo-
graphy is not use as much as possible editing or retouching
except for special cases-e.g. firefly-. At that time, I aim to take
a picture of the subject at that moment. If I am a professional and have customers and also taking business photos, like that I don't think it's something that can be done with just my thinking.
However, I think there is a big conscious difference between shooting on the premise of editing and retouching, and when it is unavoidable to make changes after shooting with full power.
Editing after shooting is excellent for creating beautiful photo-graphs with editing techniques, but this increases the possibility
of disappointment due to the difference in image when looking at
the real thing. The photos that are completed at the time of shoot-ing are unlikely to have that problem, but instead, shooting tech-nology is essential to capture the desired result on the spot.
*Of course, I don't say that it is 100% correct because editing or
retouching may be needed depending on the shooting conditions
and the condition of the subject.
Recently, editing and retouching for both professionals and amateurs is commonplace.
I think it's an ideal, but at least In the pictures I take,
Not a photo that "create a photo from the truth" after shooting
The goal is to "take a photo from the truth" when shooting.
If it's a landscape photo, someone will want to go there, and a photo that makes someone happy when actually visit.
If it's an event photo, someone will want to actually participate and a photo that makes someone happy to participate.
If it's a person, building, food, those photos that convey the charm of each.
I always think with the goal of shooting those photos.
