5 Top Tips To Taking Good Photographs
1) Get Down To Their Level
Hold the camera at eye-level to connect with the subject
2) Use Flash
Use flash even when it’s light outside to prevent
unintentional shadows!
Use it to make subjects to stand out from the
background
3) Move In Close
Move in close to fill your picture with the subject
4) Focus The Subject
1. Centre the subject2. Begin to press the button down3. Check the image is how you want it4. Shoot
5) Watch The Light
If an unwanted shadow is appearing across your
photo, ask the subject to move or take a photo from a
different angle
Remember!
• Digital cameras mean you can take several photos, from different angles with different lighting effects and select the best later
• Try to get as many different photos of the subject as possible and worry about bad/good photos when you can see them on a big screen
