Below you’ll find some quick tips on what I've shared with you in our session. If you have further questions, feel free to get in touch with me!
Always ask yourself this question before taking a shot: how can I improve on this, and make it my own shot?
Remember that the longer the zoom, usually the resulting effect more pleasant, and helps bring the background closer to your foreground subject.
The way you hold your phone can make your subject look short or amazingly tall. Use the lens distortion (especially on the 0.5X) to great effect!
Use the 3 factors of Tones, Perspective and Sharpness to make your photos pop!
Make use of Live Photo mode if you're using iPhone, and set the resulting photo to Long Exposure for marvelous waterfall shots!
Apple users can use automatic Night Mode to capture starry shots like above, and for Android users, explore Pro mode to capture long exposures and star photography too. And capture night shot at blue hour!
Always be on the look out for where your main light source is coming from, and try and position yourself at an angle (diagonal, for example) for great lighting effect
Apply some sweet sweet composition techniques to your shots and see instant improvement! Think before you shoot.
Try framing with a frame, and explore weird angles, especially low angle! You'll never know what sort of quirky cool photos await.
