01 / PHOTOGRAPHER PROFILE · HONG KONG
CHRIS CHAN 陳廷佳
Light is not decoration.
It is direction.
光線不是裝飾,而是引導。
A senior Hong Kong commercial photographer brings the discipline of advertising light into portraiture—so a child, parent or professional can arrive without knowing how to pose.香港資深商業廣告攝影師 Chris,把廣告攝影對光線與細節的要求帶進人像拍攝。無論是小朋友、媽媽或專業人士,都不需要預先懂得擺姿勢。

02 / THE PRACTICE
A commercial eye,
redirected toward the person.
把商業攝影的眼光,重新對準人物。
Chris began working in commercial photography as an assistant in 1990. The work demanded exact composition, measured light and a clear answer to one question: what must the image communicate at first glance?Chris 於 1990 年由商業攝影助手開始入行。當時的工作要求構圖準確、光線精準,亦必須先回答一個問題:觀眾第一眼要從照片接收到甚麼?
His career has crossed the film and digital eras, and has included assignments for brands, organisations, public bodies and public figures. Photoblog and DCFever profiles consistently describe a photographer whose strength lies in lighting, planning and visual communication.他的攝影生涯橫跨菲林與數碼年代,亦曾為品牌、機構、政府部門及公眾人物拍攝。Photoblog 與 DCFever 的公開介紹,都把佈光、規劃與影像溝通列為他的核心能力。
For an UNGEN portrait, that experience becomes quiet, practical direction. Chris watches how a person stands, where tension appears and when an expression becomes real, then adjusts the frame without turning the session into a performance.在 UNGEN 的人像拍攝中,這些經驗會變成安靜而實際的現場引導。Chris 會留意一個人如何站立、哪裡出現繃緊,以及表情何時真正放鬆,再逐步調整畫面,而不是把拍攝變成表演。

04 / HOW THE SESSION WORKS
Calm direction.
Precise decisions.
從容引導,精準決定。
Read the person.
先理解人物。The purpose of the portrait, the person in front of the lens and how they want to be seen come before a lighting diagram.先了解照片的用途、鏡頭前的人,以及對方希望如何被看見,才開始決定光線。
Build the light.
建立光線。Light is shaped for the face, clothing and intended use of the image—not applied as a fixed studio recipe.按面部輪廓、衣著與照片用途建立光線,而不是把同一套影樓公式套在每個人身上。
Direct the frame.
逐步現場引導。Angle, posture, hands, gaze and expression are guided one adjustment at a time, including for people who never feel natural on camera.角度、姿勢、雙手、眼神與表情會逐項引導,即使不習慣面對鏡頭,也不需要自己猜怎樣擺。
Refine by hand.
最後人手精修。The final portrait is cleaned and balanced by hand. The person is refined, never replaced or regenerated.成品由人手整理膚色、碎髮與畫面細節;只修飾,不重造,更不會生成另一張臉。
