✅ I made plans with my bestie to go to Pingyao this weekend to take a set of photos unique to Shanxi's Jin Merchant mansions. After doing some research online, we set off. Many sisters mentioned Xitang Travel Photography, so I booked a package for 298 yuan, which includes retouching of six photos, makeup and photography, and it felt like a good deal. ✅ The studio was easy to find. After leaving the train station, I entered from the Lower West Gate of the ancient city and walked straight for about 12 minutes to get there. Sisters who can't find it can locate Rishengchang, and Xitang Travel Photography is right across from Rishengchang (after the shoot, you can go to the scenic spots in costume to take pictures, which feels more atmospheric). ✅ There were many Jin Merchant costumes in the store, not just Jin Merchant clothing, but I also saw ethnic styles and many hairpins that are popular recently. I suggest that sisters choose bright colors for their clothes to create a stark contrast with the ancient houses, which makes for great photos! ✅ The makeup took about twenty minutes to complete. A young lady did my makeup, and I felt her aesthetic sense was very much on point. She helped match the jewelry with the color scheme of my clothes, which was very considerate~ Another important point! False eyelashes! They really enlarge the eyes, and if you have your own favorite style, you can bring it~ ✅ For the post-production, I chose 6 photos to be retouched. Overall, I felt the retouching was very detailed, and I was satisfied that they didn't blindly slim down the photos, retaining the original feel. If you want a more dramatic effect, you need to communicate with the editor, but they are generally accommodating. - 🌟 Little tips: ① To avoid crowds, go early. The number of people starts to increase around noon, and if you want to take street scenes, there will inevitably be passersby in the shots. ② Some spots along Nanda Street included in the ancient city pass are suitable for taking photos (the City Tower is very photogenic). ③ Personally, I think the most photogenic spot is the Ma Family Courtyard, which looks especially beautiful in photos. When I went there, I also saw many 'young mistresses'.

Because each place is far apart, it is recommended to charter a car to go!
