As shown in Figure 1, the photographing method of an embodiment of the present invention includes:

S11. Detect the location of the camera device and send the location information to the server;

S12. Display on the photographing device at least one kind of photographing guidance information received from the server and associated with the location information;

S13. Taking a photo from the target photo-taking guidance information selected from the at least one kind of photo-taking guidance information according to the user's selection operation.

The method of this embodiment detects the location of the photographing device and sends the corresponding location information to the server, and receives the photographing guidance information associated with the location information determined by the server, so that the user can quickly complete the photographing according to the photographing guidance information.

In the above embodiments, the photographing device may be any one of a smart phone, a tablet computer, a smart camera, etc., but is not limited to the content listed above. In order to highlight the innovations of the present invention more clearly and conveniently, a smart phone will be taken as an example for description below. The smartphone that is used to implement the photographing method of the present invention obtains the location of the smartphone in real time through a built-in positioning device (for example, GPS), or prompts the user to turn on the positioning device to obtain the current position when the user activates the camera function of the smartphone information. In step S11, after the location of the smart phone is obtained, the location information is sent to the server. Then in step S12, the smart phone receives the photographing guidance information associated with the location information determined by the server and displays it on the display screen of the smartphone for the user to complete the photographing according to the photographing guidance information.

As shown in FIG. 2, in some embodiments, the photographing of the target photographing guidance information selected from the at least one photographing guidance information according to the user's selection operation includes:

S21. Detect the user's selection operation to determine the target photographing guidance information;

S22. Display the target photographing guidance information on the photographing device to guide photographing.

In any of the above embodiments, the photographing guidance information may be text prompt information and/or photo samples. For example, when the user is carrying a smart phone on the sea, the server determines that the text prompt information and/or photo samples with the theme of "Titanic" are photo-taking instruction information according to the received location information. When it is determined that the photo guide information is "Titanic", the smartphone receives the photo guide information and displays it on the display screen. When the user sees the above text prompt information, he will naturally think of taking a classic Titanic-style photo. pose to complete the photoshoot. For example, when a user carries a smart phone at a scenic spot where many film and television works have been shot, the smart phone will receive shooting guidance information of multiple themes sent from the server. The smart phone then detects the user's operation on the presented shooting guidance information of multiple themes (selected by pressing a button or by touching), and displays the shooting guidance information for the user's reference according to the detection results to complete the shooting. In this way, the reappearance of the classic scenes in the film and television works corresponding to the guidance information of one of the themes selected by the user is realized.

As described in the above embodiments, the photographing guidance information can be divided into multiple levels. Because a location determined based on location information may be the shooting location of many different classic film and television works. Therefore, the first level of shooting guidance information includes shooting guidance information for each classic film and television work, which is displayed on the screen of the smart phone in the form of a list or in the form of a thumbnail. After the user's selection operation is detected, the shooting guidance information of the selected target subject is displayed on the display screen of the smart phone. The shooting guidance information for a specific target subject is a photo sample and/or text guidance information. This embodiment provides users with a variety of optional photographing guidance information that can be used for classic reproduction through the grading of photographing guidance information, providing users with more choices, and facilitating users to determine their favorite classic scenes in the shortest possible time. Finish taking pictures.

As shown in FIG. 3 , in some embodiments, after the detection of the user's selection operation to determine the target photographing guidance information further includes:

S14. Displaying at least one photographing mode suitable for the target photographing guidance information;

S15. Detect the user's selection operation to enter the selected photographing mode.

The photographing mode in this embodiment is adapted to the photographing guidance information in the foregoing embodiments. The camera modes include but are not limited to the modes listed below: black and white mode, high cool mode, retro mode, soft mode, highlight mode, fresh mode, frosted mode, etc. After the selected photographing guidance information is determined in the above embodiment, the smart phone will automatically execute the above step S14 of this embodiment to push a photographing mode suitable for the selected photographing guidance information to the user. For example, when the photo guide information selected by the user is the text prompt information of "Titanic", the smart phone will execute step S14 to provide at least a retro mode and/or a soft mode for the user to choose. When the photo guide information selected by the user is a photo sample in the theme of "To Youth", the smart phone will perform step S14 to provide at least a fresh mode and/or a highlight mode for the user to choose. After detecting that the user selects the camera mode, the smart phone will enter the imaging acquisition mode to complete the camera. In this embodiment, the method of matching at least one suitable photographing mode for the target photographing guidance information facilitates the user to more quickly select a preferred mode from the displayed at least one photographing mode to complete the photographing. This not only ensures the speed of the user taking pictures but also improves the quality of the pictures taken.

As shown in Figure 4, the embodiment of the present invention also provides another photographing method, including:

S41. Receive the location information sent by the selfie device;

S42. Retrieve at least one type of photographing guidance information associated with the position information from a database, where various types of photographing guidance information associated with various types of position information are stored;

S43. Push the at least one kind of photographing guidance information to the photographing device for photographing.

The photographing method of this embodiment is used to cooperate with a photographing device (for example, a smart phone) to execute any one of the above photographing methods, and the photographing method of this embodiment can be applied to a server. And when the server executes the function of the photographing method of this embodiment and the smart phone executes the photographing method in the above embodiment, it cooperates with each other to realize the photographing method of the present invention. Firstly, the server executing the photographing method of this embodiment receives the location information from the photographing device. Then, the server retrieves the pre-stored photographing guidance information associated with the location information from the database. Finally, push the photographing guidance information determined by retrieval to the photographing device that sends the location information. Therefore, this embodiment simplifies the user's photographing operation by using the photographing guidance information associated with the position of the photographing device to guide the user to photograph (simplifies the operation of photographing photographs associated with a specific location. For example, imitating photographing at the The poses of characters in classic film and television works at specific locations to reproduce the classic pictures in classic film and television works), which improves the efficiency of users in taking pictures.
