攝影｜合照
不管是幾個人的合照，我都挺希望站在我面前是一群活潑好動的人，最好是那種過動兒，停不下來那種。
我現在拍完合照最常聽到的一句話，不是謝謝攝影師，
（按快門只需要一兩秒，當然很快）
我其實是挺納悶，是遇到過很會拖節奏的攝影師嗎？拍合照不是就幾秒鐘的事而已，難道可以拍到幾分鐘？有人有遇過可以跟我分享你的經驗。
通常我聽到，有時間我就會說說我為什麼拍合照會這麼快速，如果想看照片也是沒問題，合照其實是最好拍也最不需要處理大修的照片，就算現場直接看，顏色、構圖、水平都一定會是正常，因為合照是最容易完成的拍攝過程。
額外說明一下，合照是指在特定地點，例如有背板或者已經架設好燈光的地方。因為燈光都已經調整好，所以只要人站定位，不要超過鏡頭取景的範圍，不要擋到別人的臉，我就只是站到我該按下快門的位置，按下快門，就結束一次合照拍攝，何況現在一秒的快門都已經可以十幾張照片，所以只要前置作業都達到我的要求，真的就只是一兩秒的時間。
至於，我開頭為什麼會這麼說，主要是如果你真的希望有比較多的合照照片，你要做的不是被動的讓攝影師引導你，而是主動的『表演』你的肢體動作。做什麼其實都無所謂，文靜有文靜的動作，活潑有活潑的動作，只要你把你表現出來自己的個性就可以了，除非攝影師覺得太誇張、太過分就會稍微制止或者另外引導動作。
總而言之，下次遇到我拍合照，第一張拍完還想繼續拍，不用客氣，跟我說再給你幾秒鐘表現，我會努力記錄下你的表現。
No matter how many people are in the group photo, I really hope that the people standing in front of me are a lively and energetic bunch, preferably those kind of hyperactive ones who can’t sit still.
The most common phrase I hear after taking a group photo now is not ‘thank you, photographer’,
but: ‘That was fast! Photographer, you’re really fast.’
(Pressing the shutter only takes one or two seconds, of course it’s quick.)
I actually wondered if I have encountered photographers who take their time. Isn’t taking a group photo just a matter of a few seconds?
Can it actually take minutes? Has anyone had such an experience to share with me?
Usually, I hear that, if there’s time, I’ll explain why I take group photos so quickly. If you want to see the photos, that’s no problem. Group photos are actually the best to take and require the least amount of editing. Even if you view them on the spot, the colors, composition, and level will definitely be normal because taking group photos is the easiest shooting process.
Additional clarification: A group photo refers to taking a picture at a specific location, such as with a backdrop or pre-set lighting arrangement. Since the lighting is already adjusted, all people need to do is stand in position without exceeding the camera’s frame and without blocking anyone’s face.
I just stand in the position where I should press the shutter, press the shutter, and that’s the end of a group photo shoot. Not to mention, nowadays, a single second of shutter speed can capture more than ten photos, so as long as the preparations meet my requirements, it really only takes one or two seconds.
As for why I said that in the beginning, it’s mainly because if you really wish to have more group photos, what you need to do is not passively let the photographer guide you, but actively perform your body movements.
It doesn’t really matter what you do, as long as you express your own personality through quiet or lively actions. The photographer may slightly restrain or redirect your movements if they feel it’s too exaggerated or excessive.
In summary, the next time you encounter me taking photos, after the first shot, feel free to tell me how many more seconds you need to pose, and I will try my best to capture your performance.
