Here are three really quick tips on getting a little more from your photography:
1. Always be aware of the background.
You don’t want to find trees growing out of people’s heads or a passing vehicle to draw attention from your subject. Pay attention to the background as often moving your subject just a couple of steps to either side can make all the difference.
2. Use available light.
If your digital camera has an option to turn the flash off and it’s light enough outside to read a book, then use the available light, and turn the flash off. In general camera flashes are too harsh for human skin and make all of us look pale. Indoors, where there isn’t enough daylight, place your subject by a window and use your fill flash feature.
3. Aim your camera slightly down at the subjects face.
Also don’t shoot just face on to the person, try a little to the side, a three quarter view, so that you are to see more of their face.
