Take Advantage of Artificial Light
You might not be taking photos in a professional studio, but that doesn’t mean you can’t take advantage of what you’ve got lying around! Dig around your closet for anything that can create light, such as LED lights, flashlights, and candles.
Light these light sources and place them strategically around the subject so that it’s highlighted just right. You might have to play around with the number of lights you use and the settings of your DSLR or smartphone camera.
However, experimenting can lead to some really cool photos!
Use a Tripod
Even using a smartphone camera, use a tripod when you can. This helps stabilize the camera so you can capture the smallest details without them blurring.
This also allows you to take self-portraits without the annoying “selfie arm” in the frame. It also lets you wander farther away from the camera as the tripod holds it for you. All you have to do is set up a self-timer, which all smartphones should have.
Mirror Your Images
Don’t feel like you look your best in a photo? Don’t delete it just yet!
As you might already know, our faces aren’t perfectly symmetrical. This is what makes us unique and beautiful!
So, try mirroring your images to see if the flipped pictures look better. You can mirror images for free by using online tools or preinstalled photo editing programs on your computer.
Take Advantage of Filters
We’re not talking about adding heavy filters like those Instagram girls do, but a light one can make your images pop!
Take a quick browse through your preinstalled filters. If they’re too artificial and unnatural, you can always download more online. Make sure you take the time to try out each filter on your photos, as you never know what will make them really stand out.
