A few simple steps teach you to take professional camera-level photos with your mobile phone.

Smartphones have undoubtedly become everyone's standard, and the number of pixels has changed from the initial millions to tens of millions now. Many mobile phone brands have launched 20 million-level dual-camera phones. It is precisely because of this improvement in the level of mobile phone photography that photography is not so far away and everyone can become a photographer. In fact, the photos taken by a slightly better quality smartphone are not much different from those taken by a professional camera (unless you enlarge the photos many times). So the distance between you and the photographer lies in the choice of scene and the composition of the photo.

Many students will ask me what mobile phone you use to take photos, so I used an outdated iPhone 6s, which has been launched for many years. So you see, the photos I took are not bad either. At first, I was also a photographer. After going to college, I have more free time, so I often go out to play with my classmates. I slowly began to like photography, but I didn't buy a camera because I didn't like it enough. Over the past year or so, I have read some photography books and summed up some practical methods through my own exploration. I will share it with you below.

Good photography is good because it conveys beauty. This kind of beauty is given by the photographer, so it is most important for a photographer to have a good aesthetic. It is also very simple to cultivate a good aesthetic, which has nothing to do with your age and occupation. As long as you often look at other excellent photos, you will learn a lot from them.

There is a prime time to shoot scenery or people, and the photos taken at this time are beautiful. For us amateurs, we just need to grasp the prime time. Generally, after sunrise and before sunset, the sun angle is low and the light is soft. At this time, amazing photos were taken.

There are many kinds of composition methods in photography, but they are all professional and have little practical effect on ordinary people. In fact, before taking pictures, you just need to figure out what to highlight. Put it in that position in the photo, and you will gradually master the simple and practical composition, and the effect is very good.

The most important thing for an excellent photographic work is to gain the audience, and what the photographer wants to convey is the meaning. Taking photos without video can make viewers fully understand their intentions through a series of pictures, but the photos only record that moment, so it is particularly important to choose the subject, otherwise the viewers will not understand your intentions. So how can we define the subject? In fact, it is very simple to exclude the rest of the distractions from the shooting background. Simply put, don't let other scenery steal the limelight of the subject.

People's aesthetics is developing towards simplicity. The simpler the picture, the more quickly the viewer can capture the key points of the picture. So try to choose scenes with simple pictures and few elements before shooting.

The picture should have a sense of hierarchy, the more vivid, the more organized and the more aesthetic. It is also very simple to realize the layering of the picture, as long as the relationship between distance and size is handled well.

The importance of image quality is self-evident, which is also a very important factor in the quality of mobile phone photography. Open the phone settings and set the camera photo quality to the highest.

Most mobile phone lenses are fixed-focus lenses, which means that the zoom is basically off, which means that when you take a picture, you enlarge the picture, which is actually the same as cutting it after you enlarge it. In fact, many mobile phone meta-cameras have very good and practical functions, but no one has ever noticed them. For example, the panoramic view in the iPhone is rarely used. In fact, this is a very good function, which I will discuss in a later article.

Share it with everyone. Therefore, using these functions well will get twice the result with half the effort.

These are my simple photography skills.
