The final photos of Elysia's summer Swimsuit cosplay look from Honkai Impact 3rd are finally sorted out. The shooting location was chosen at a venue combining an artificial beach and a swimming pool. To match her lively and agile personality, I intentionally enhanced the transparency of the blue eyes and the slight blush on the cheeks in the makeup, giving the overall complexion a more vibrant summer feel. Regarding the costume, this black-and-white color-blocked ruffled swimsuit, paired with the outer blue sheer mesh sleeves, retains a girlish feel while being slightly playful. The headpiece and the pearl necklace around the neck also add a lot of exquisite details.
During the shoot, I tried many different states. For instance, in the first photo, relaxing on a lounge chair facing the camera, zoning out my gaze to create a lazy vacation vibe; or like the one by the pool, cooperating with an inflatable swim ring prop to add more natural interaction. My most satisfactory shot is the full-body composition lying on a white lounge chair; the slight curling of the toes and the posture of the arm support beautifully showcase the character's relaxed and carefree side. The natural light hitting the skin makes the makeup texture look clean and translucent. There weren't too many adjustments in post-production, mainly preserving the colors and light-and-shadow layers of the environment at that time. Actually, when shooting this kind of work with a sense of daily life scenes, the most important thing is the relaxation of your state. Only when you immerse yourself in this summer atmosphere will the images captured by the lens avoid the stiffness of posing. The whole shooting process was very fun, and the coolness of the poolside matched the style of this outfit perfectly. I hope this set of photos can make everyone feel Elysia's bright and playful summer vibe in this photography sharing of a Summer Film.
