Blue Hour with the Sony A7R4 + Sony FE 24mm f1.4 GM Sample Photos

Blue hour portrait shot on the Sony A7R4 with the Sony FE 24mm f1.4 GM, photo 1

During this photoshoot, I share my go-to tips for shooting portraits with a 24mm prime lens. I take you behind the scenes of a moody blue hour shoot with Serena using the Sony 24mm f1.4 GM on the full frame Sony A7RIV. In the video below, you'll see how I approach composition with a wide-angle lens, including how to handle distortion, use negative space, and pose your subject to stand out in wide frames. I also explain when I switch between portrait and landscape orientation, how close is too close with a 24mm, and why this lens works best with exaggerated posing and creative angles. If you're curious about using wider lenses for portrait work, this video will give you practical, real-world tips to try on your next shoot.
