Classic Pre-Wedding Item, Red Thread ♡
The red thread made by passing wire through yarn is a classic wedding item among brides-to-be. Many of you might be considering DIYing it before the photoshoot.
The typical use of the red thread is to tie it around your pinky finger alongside your partner, following the legend of the red thread of fate ♡ It feels very romantic, just like destined couples, doesn't it?*
However, there are actually other lovely ways to use it too. ♡
The Perspective Shots with Red Thread are Too Cute ♡
One of them is to set the red thread in the foreground and take pictures of both of you through it, called the “perspective shot” ♡ There are two ways to take perspective shots: one is to blur the two of you and the other is to blur the red thread.
Here, the focus is on the red thread while the couple's figures behind it are blurred. It creates a romantic and atmospheric photo ♡
If you focus on the couple, the red thread will appear softly in the frame, resulting in a cute picture. It’s popular to create a heart shape and position your faces inside it for this composition ♡
Recommended for Perspective Shots is the "LOVE" Red Thread ♡
There are various designs for red thread, such as “longevity,” Mickey Mouse, and dates, but the recommendation is the word “LOVE" ♡
Make the "O" in "LOVE" into a heart and get both of you inside it for a super cute perspective shot! *
The couple gazing at each other beyond the "LOVE" is very romantic ♡ Don’t you think it looks like a completed piece that could also serve as a welcome board? *
For Traditional Garb, the Water-Spray Ribbon is Adorable ♡
Brides considering traditional pre-wedding shoots should try the red thread resembling a water-spray ribbon too ♡ It looks like the couple is tied together with this ribbon, making it very cute ♩
The ribbon-shaped red thread should be glued at the hoop part to prevent it from falling, which is a key point ◎
Large Heart ♡ Love Shot ♡
For perspective shots using heart-shaped red thread, you can capture a lovey-dovey picture where both of you fit snugly inside the heart ♡ Try to get really close, kiss each other on the cheek, or do some shy-friendly poses! ♡
