Here is an example of a beautiful, crisp, clean salon photo. Nice angle, well lit, very inviting.

Finding a great angle is half the battle. But first decide if you’d like an empty salon or a busy salon.

Busy can look good. But try to focus on smiling faces and space between the figures.

Rich colours in the frame can really help the photos pop!

Because if you don’t find a nice composition, ‘busy’ can also look quite stressful as well.

Make sure that any figures in the photo don’t turn blurry with motion.

What’s in the frame is very important. Take the time to orchestrate the room nicely.

This is the actual main photograph of a salon’s Yelp Page.

Clear obstructions.Make sure anything in the frame is there for a reason.

Think about what your photo is trying to say. The little details really do matter

Blurry counter and retail

Most of the time, a balanced frame works best. A crooked angle like this can be off putting.

High angle can be nice. But be careful, because they can tend to look a little peculiar as well.

Windows can work to your advantage. But be careful with them. If not done correctly, then they can really take away from your interior.

The interior is far too dark for this image.

The street is actually the focal point of this salon photo

Wide Angle can be nice. But be careful with it. If you go too wide, it just looks unnatural and unappealing.

Depth of field can be an amazing feature. Just look how impactful the images in focus are now.

If you want to show your retail section, just be careful of the walls and corners. The one above doesn’t do justice to the salon at all.

Have your windows work to your advantage (otherwise, cover them up). This one has a nice splash of light coming from outside.

But don’t rely solely on sunlight. The back part of this image is too dark and takes away from the beauty of the room.

Too dark in the back

Having something in the foreground is a nice touch. Just in the corner. It’s visible. But not distracting from the frame.

Another photography trick is called the Rule Of Thirds. Imagine the image is divided into 9 parts of a grid (Continue on next slide)

Framing something along the grid lines can make for a much more interesting composition.
