Technical excellence is the foundation of great model photography. Here are the settings that professionals rely on.
Portrait Settings
- Aperture: f/2.8-f/5.6 for subject isolation
- Shutter Speed: 1/200s minimum to freeze movement
- ISO: As low as possible (100-400 ideally)
- Focus: Always on the eyes
Fashion/Editorial Settings
For full-body fashion shots, use f/8-f/11 for sharper detail throughout. Increase ISO if needed to maintain faster shutter speeds.
