Today’s Tips:
1. Lighting (we’ll get more into this later) : lighting is key to getting a really great shot. Try to take your photos (unless you’re taking a photo at night) in the best lighting as possible. Natural lighting is the best but remember to keep the light coming from behind you. (exception is if you are trying to get a photo of the sun or of your subject lit up by the direct sunlight).
2. Hold your camera phone as if it was an actual regular camera – and by this and I mean use both hands. It will help steady the camera and you’ll get a more focused and lined up shot.
