How to Get Better Photographs from your Phone Camera

 

1. Clean the lens: A dirty lens can affect the quality of your photos. Clean it before taking a picture.

2. Use grid lines: Enable the grid lines in your camera app to help you align your shots and apply the rule of thirds for more balanced compositions.

3. Adjust exposure: If a photo is too dark or too bright, you can adjust the exposure by tapping on the screen where you want to set the focus and exposure.

4. Use natural light: Avoid using the flash whenever possible and opt for natural light instead. This will give your photos a more natural and professional look.

5. Experiment with portrait mode: Many newer phones have a portrait mode that can create a shallow depth of field effect for more visually interesting photos.

6. Stabilize your phone: Use a tripod or stabilize your hand to avoid camera shake and get sharper photos.

7. Edit your photos: Use editing tools to enhance your photos, such as adjusting brightness, contrast, saturation, and sharpness.

8. Store and back up your photos: Regularly back up your photos to avoid losing them in case your phone is lost, damaged or stolen.
