Minimalist photography is a very attractive photography style, simple lines and patterns can be combined into a concise and aesthetic picture.

On the other hand, many people always feel that they can't find the right theme, or the photos they take almost feel it.

When taking minimalist photos, if we pay more attention to these elements, the photos will be more attractive:

1. There are relatively few elements in the minimalist style of texture photography, so we need to "carefully select" the scenes and subjects we shoot. Many people feel that their minimalist style "almost means". It may be that the elements in the picture are not expressive enough.

The texture of the subject is an important element that can enhance the overall expression. because the minimalist style usually needs to express artistic conception and needs a certain amount of white space and imagination, it may not be prominent enough in terms of three-dimensional sensation. If the subject has a certain texture, or the lines are more attractive, it can make up for this shortcoming.

Texture can enhance the texture of the picture, so when shooting, we can select the elements that have obvious texture and lines to shoot.

You can also shoot from a few more angles to highlight the expressiveness of the subject.

The sense of line and the contrast of light and shade can enrich the content of the picture, highlight the three-dimensional sense of the picture and pay attention to the time and light angle when shooting, and the scene with light and shade contrast is more suitable for shaping texture.

two。 Color (1) Black and white is undoubtedly one of the best partners for minimalist photography. The simple and generous combination of black, white and gray is very in tune with minimalist photography, and it is also suitable for shaping light, shadow and texture.

In scenes with strong light and shadow contrast and disorderly colors, we can try to record minimalism with black and white, or later use black and white to highlight concise features.

(2) collision color is the collocation of contrast color, the two colors far apart in the color wheel can be regarded as contrast color, such as orange and purple, red and blue, etc., complementary color is also a kind of collision color.

In minimalist photography, color collision also has a lot of room to play, because there are fewer elements in the picture, which can not only highlight the characteristics of color, but also produce stronger visual impact and attraction, but we need to pay attention to control the number of colors. Too many colors will appear cluttered and lose the characteristics of minimalism.

(3) the adjacent colors are also suitable for the minimalist style, because the colors are similar, so they do not have a strong sense of contrast with each other, but can strengthen the sense of minimalism, and the adjacent colors can also build a sense of color transition and hierarchy.

3. Composition (1) the negative space is the blank space in the photo, such as the sky as the background, the solid color background wall when taking portraits, etc., can be regarded as negative space.

The role of negative space in minimalist photography is also obvious, it can create a sense of simplicity, especially the larger area of negative space, can strengthen this feature.

In addition, the negative space can also provide a "sense of breathing" for the photo, and the minimalist style often needs more space to express its own characteristics. If the elements in the photo are full, the minimalist feeling will disappear a lot.

(2) the balance of photos is also important in minimalist style, which is why many minimalist photos choose symmetrical composition. Let's compare the two photos:

After cutting, the photo shows a sense of imbalance, the building on the left appears abrupt, and the building on the right also appears askew. The second photo is a modified photo, the sense of symmetry is destroyed, we can obviously feel some awkwardness, and most of the aesthetic sense has disappeared.

Of course, this does not mean that we must choose symmetrical composition when shooting, but we should pay attention to the overall sense of balance of the photo, especially the most basic "horizontal and vertical" of the photo, whether there are messy elements around that affect the sense of balance, and so on. sometimes it is the key to directly affect the look and feel of the photo.
