How to take good indoor photos?

Indoor photography is to capture the beauty of indoor space and home, and play the best art in it. Taking pictures of the room sounds easy, but to make the photos look high quality,

Being professional and attracting audiences can be a real challenge. An internal shooting must meet the aesthetic requirements of the audience, which requires a lot of lighting and proper positioning of props and furniture.

To help you achieve these goals, here are 10 suggestions on how to improve indoor photography and make your final photos look the best.

A clear image

Generally speaking, photography is generally caused by camera shaking. However, besides shaking hands, there are more factors that will make your photos blurred and of low quality. For example, if there is a lack of good lighting in the lens, you may add ISO to compensate for the light. In order to take high ISO photos, the camera must be perfect. To achieve this effect, please use a tripod and set a timer for three to ten seconds to trigger shooting. In this way, you won't shake the camera because you won't touch it at all. A tripod may slow you down when shooting inside, but it will definitely improve your shooting quality and let you focus on every shot.

Choose the right camera

A camera with a real oblique screen is a good choice for indoor photography. Nowadays, most digital SLR cameras and even some bridge cameras have real-time viewing function, which can help you see the lens better and imagine the results.

Rotating the screen is another advantage of taking indoor photos, because changing the angle and viewing angle is very important for image quality in this type of photos. Obviously, you can't use the live viewfinder at all angles, because some angles may be too low and some angles may be too high. This is where tilting the screen comes in handy, because you can adjust it so that you can see the lens from any position.

Lens selection

The lens you use is very important to the shooting quality. Please use a wide-angle lens for indoor photography to get more shooting space and take wider photos. This wider perspective can attract more viewers and make your photos have a "wow" effect. Besides using a wide-angle lens, another thing you can do is to stand in the corner to get the widest angle of view.

Use a spirit level

When shooting the interior, keep the camera straight and shoot directly for the sake of beauty. To do this, you must use a balancer. Most modern high-end cameras have electronic level meters, but if yours doesn't, you can use old-fashioned foam. Either way, make sure the wall is straight and won't tilt.

External flash

Obviously, when shooting indoors, the room should be very bright. However, you can use lighting to achieve amazing results. Use an externally filled flash to bounce off the ceiling or wall after shooting. This will fill the shadows and illuminate the space without using direct flash. Don't combine this method with direct flashing, because it will cause too much brightness. Try to shoot the space in front of you from the perspective of light.

Photo use

Before shooting, you need to know what you want to do in the future. If your goal is to get them published in magazines, try using the lens vertically. Most indoor photos on the internet are horizontal, which is why they have not entered the magazine industry. If you want to publish an article in a magazine, do it, because this is the main requirement of printing magazines.

Post-processing in Lightroom

Lightroom is the best post-editing program for indoor photography you can find. In order to make full use of it, please make sure to take photos in RAW mode. This will allow you to correct the image later without affecting the quality. After entering Lightroom, adjust shadows and highlights accordingly to get the desired effect through contrast and white balance. Use the lens correction function to repair any obstacles in the photo.

Reasonable layout space

Obviously, in order to get a good internal shot, your shooting space must be well structured, organized and, most importantly, clean. Before shooting, clean up the space to ensure that there are no sundries, and use props such as mats and blankets to improve the aesthetics. Make sure the space design is reasonable and get ready to take photos.

Selection of aperture

Depth of field plays an important role when taking indoor photos. Using different aperture settings will bring you different effects. To know which one you must use, you must know what effect a small aperture and a large aperture can achieve. A smaller aperture will blur unnecessary details in the background and focus on the front, while a larger aperture will focus on the whole lens.

Creativity modeling

Last but not least, be creative when shooting. Mix and match things, change the position of props, angles, perspectives and lights. Create different combinations, observe the results and determine which one you like best. Try to look at the photos from the outside.

-Take multiple photos, because there is time to delete photos you don't like during post-editing.

These ten tips will help you take better indoor photos. If you plan to publish them, you may be selected as the next edition of photo printing magazine. Please remember to use the correct aperture setting to ensure that the light is good enough to ensure the shooting angle and angle!
