First, use the visual center to highlight the subject and arrange the subject in the visual center of the picture to occupy a prominent position, thus attracting the attention of the audience. The commonly used methods are "nine squares" composition, golden section composition and diagonal composition.
Highlight the main body by using the composition method of "nine squares"
Suppose that there are two bisectors in the length, width and side of the picture, which form a "nine-square grid" shape, and the four Wen Dian formed by the four lines are the visual center of the picture. When shooting, any of these four intersections in the subject will become a prominent position in the picture. This is the so-called "Jiugongge" composition method.

Highlight the main body with golden section point composition method
Golden section is a law with beautiful value discovered by ancient Greek mathematicians in line segment division, and the composition form following this law is considered to be "harmonious". The golden section is the position of the subject, visual center or interest center in composition. Putting the subject at the golden section is considered to be the most appropriate proportional position.

Highlight the main body by diagonal composition
Arrange the subject on the diagonal of the picture, so that the subject is inclined and dynamic in the center of the picture, thus forming a strong visual effect.
(Diagonal composition method)
Secondly, highlighting the theme through comparison is not only an artistic expression, but also the formal basis of artistic composition. Contrast causes differences, forms the center of interest, and thus highlights the subject. The common forms of contrast in composition are: primary and secondary contrast, size contrast, light and shade contrast, primary and secondary contrast, dynamic and static contrast, color contrast and so on.
(Contrast composition, the picture forms a variety of contrast relationships such as light and dark, primary and secondary, cold and warm, complex and simple)
Third, highlight the subject by using the relationship between the subject and the companion and the environment, and highlight the subject by converging lines.
Arrange some guide lines from the picture to guide your sight, gather from multiple corners and point to the protagonist like an arrow. This is to use the environment to form a convergence line, and then produce a guiding role to highlight the main body.
(Composition of Polymeric Lines)
Highlight the main body by framing the frame.
This composition adopts the method of frame-by-frame composition, that is, the subject is set in the middle of a frame composed of other scenes, and the subject is highlighted by the directional foil effect of the environment.
(composition)
Highlight the theme through special forms.
This is to highlight the main body by breaking the differences and seeking changes. That is to say, the subject is arranged in an environment with uniform laws, so that the environment and the subject are not only related, but also form strong contrast and difference, so as to achieve the purpose of highlighting the subject.
abstract
There are many forms of composition in fashion photography, and a good fashion work often contains many forms of composition, which is the embodiment of the photographer's comprehensive ability. Therefore, the above rules cannot be separated, let alone mechanically applied. The composition of fashion photography must be determined according to the shooting intention, content and scene environment.
