All You Need to Know Before Making Great Things in Mobile Photography
Mobile photography is the future of taking shots for common people in this world, you know that millions of human being love taking photos no matter who they are and you don’t need to be a pro for shooting in your smartphone. Some people will use the photo just for sharing in their social media, which is I did it too, but some of them also use their photos to make money both by selling it online or direct to the buyer.
Here I want give my short guidance of making great photos through mobile photography.
1 – Composition is the King
There is no specific ways to make great composition in photography even I know some ridiculous tutorial such as:
- Aware in one third proportion
- Give some blank space at the left or right
- or taking the whole things without any distortion
If you never heard that theory than it just fine because the real great composition is could be happen if you do more practice over and over again till you can feel the composition by your self. Let me give you the guidance with real example of image.
When you take some tasty food photo like this than you could put the object at the centre and give a bit blank space both on the left and right than cut off all the space at the upper and lower of the object. This spicy chicken with sambal matah lunch bowl is taken 100% with available light so what I do is simply put this bowl on the sofa bench and let the light coming from the right side.
2 – Clear and Clean Image
My quote of shooting in mobile photography is,
“Lets make a clear and clean shots or forget it and enjoy my ice tea”
So I wouldn’t waste my time by taking a shots when I don’t get enough lighting set, this quote mean as simple as I only want to make great photo or forget it because taking an ugly photo will bring nothing to me. Let me show you with the sample below,
Few days ago, I was reviewing my tiny Boya microphone that I use for making an online class, this picture is absolutely taken with Samsung Galaxy A10s camera without any single colour adjustment or photo retouching on Photoshop or Lightroom. It was around 9 am when the sun goes up and I have a small garden right in front of my house with a fresh plant leaf in it.
3 – Let ‘Ur Art Style Work On
When you’re done with my first and second guidance than this third steps is the most important part, it seems to be confusing especially for you who just begin your mobile photography journey but this is the most fun part,
Use your imagination to create the best artworks!
It’s a free style art so you may explore your expertise and by doing practice over and over again than you gonna fine your own style to create your best images. Take a look for my wedding picture below, it’s not a formal shots and may have a bit challenging composition but the end result is very good both for me and my couple. This pictures is way better than the formal one (I also got it too on my card) but here I love to shoot in journalism style where I must capturing moment which belong to the most important part in wedding photography till finally I could telling all people that,
This is my style!
