Terrible Indoor Couple Session Scene – Powerful Ambient Light Source

Some indoor scenes leave much to be desired, but sometimes options are few and far between.
When faced with less than ideal indoor spaces, take the following actions:
 Overpower the ambient light: Find the best possible light or modify with reflectors or flash
 Shoot tight: limit how much of the environment is revealed
 Shoot wide apertures (f/1.2 to f/2.8): Blur out the background
 Darken your exposure to reveal less skin/shadows

Choose The Right Lens For The Job

The lens you choose to photograph couples
portraits has more to do with the particular
look and style of imagery you are trying to
capture than anything else.
Some lenses, such as wide angle lenses
with 24mm or 35mm focal lengths lead to
more to journalistic or environmental images
while others are more appropriately used to
capture traditional portraits, such as an 85mm
focal length lens.
Whatever lenses you decide to pack, it is
important to choose the right ones for the job.

Perfect Indoor Couples Photo Session Scene – Large Source
of Natural Light

The meaning of ideal may vary depending on the style of photography
your couple prefers. But if you can find at least a few of the following
elements for an indoor scene you’ll be off to a great start:
 Find good natural light.
 Use hallways/stairs for compositional elements.
 Find natural reflectors like white walls that will help fill in light.
 Look for clean backgrounds.
