Phone Photography Tips

In todays day and age almost all phones have a camera.  Most of those cameras are close to comparable to many point and shoot cameras you can buy.  So why carry both.  Most don't.  In todays post I am gonna share a few tips on how to get better phone photos.

1.  Hold the phone like you would a camera - this will provide stability and balance needed

2.  Don't zoom with the internal zoom, zoom with your feet - avoids blur and grain
3.  Shoot the same thing a few times - this will help get the best photo
4.  Light - the lower the light the more grain you will have in your photo
5.  Set resolution and quality settings to the highest settings
6.  Keep camera as still as possible to avoid blur
7.  Move around and try different angles
8.  Clean the lens - your phone is in a pocket most of the time, it can collect a lot of dirt
9.   Process - You can use an in phone app or download to your computer and use software
10.  Clutter - try to avoid to much going on in your photo, more pleasing to the eye


All the photos above were taken with my iphone.  I definitely use my dslr for big events and those moments I want great photos for.  But my phone works for the everyday items or the random things you find during the day( I seem to take a lot of photos of bugs).

Hope these tips help you improve your phone photography!
