On the 9th floor of the Hankyu Umeda Main Store, at the 4th floor atrium festival square, a talk show will be held by Shin Yamagishi, a photographer who has worked on many portraits of actors, models, athletes, politicians, and successive prime ministers! While looking at the many portraits of celebrities that have been shot on the large screen in the venue, we will talk about the appeal of photography, episodes during shooting, and reasons for using Leica. In addition, on stage, we will actually shoot portraits of two professional models, and we will show you how to take good photos and poses that can be taken beautifully. In addition, you can see the same model of Leica camera used by Shin Yamagishi in the “Leica” corner on the 10th floor. Feel free to drop by a Leica store to try out the actual product. ■ About how to take a portrait with two models and how it is taken There are plenty of interesting stories that will be useful not only when taking pictures, but also when being photographed, such as how to bring out the personality of the model when shooting portraits, tips on how to talk to the model to relieve tension, and examples of posing to take beautiful pictures!
