Hall 3 is allocated to the display of photo ensembles shot byprofessional photographers and the availability of franchising opportunities. With theincrease in market-oriented competition in the sector, large- and small-sizedphotography studios are changing their business models with a shift tophotography venues with lower costs. With the advent of the "micro"era, these studios are seeking more opportunities in micro films, an emergingart form combining creative photography with fashion marketing. With the adventof these more innovative photography concepts, they have created photographicsamples with new documentary themes that differ from the early art-, Korean-,European royal- and exotic-style portrait settings. Despite the changes,photography works are still a combination of art and business. A new trend inwedding photography offerings are foreign wedding and honey-moon services,which looks set to replace traditional wedding services in terms of popularity.The children's photography exhibits, an area that is guaranteed to bring smilesto the faces of the attendees, include photos of pregnant women and babies,adorned or surrounded by bowknots, lace accessories, folded ornaments, goldenaccessories and angel wings including poses in baby carriages.

Replacing thetraditional digital background which no longer meets the demands of consumersseeking a higher quality of product, scene props to be showcased create a vividphotographic environment that allows newlyweds and their families to feel truly immersed in the scene andresults in pictures with a substantially enhanced real feel. As a result,integration of the design, construction, furniture and decor ofphotographic studios is destined become the fashion trend going forward.
