SliA slightaggeration perhaps but there are ways to really make your photos pop.

I have written a few articles in the past, all dedicated to mobile photography, and it always comes down to one thing, light. With the right amount of light an,y photo can look like a money shot. Why do you think Apple always shows pictures of a sunny beach? Well, you have your answer right there. With the right amount of light, the camera is able to store much more detail in a way it is unable to do when it’s dark. That is why you sometimes experience a grainy photo when taken in a low light environment. Light is everything, so make sure you have lots of it on the subject you are photographing.


What more? Well, your personality can have a huge impact on how your mobile photography is expressing itself. If you’re shy there is a very good chance that you will never get that awesome shot, so don’t be scared, go for the pictures you want! Well, unless it is a restricted area, then that is always a big no-no. Get out there and find those rare shots. Mobile photography is all about being mobile. Use the essence of the word to your advantage.

Furthermore, get close! Too many times I have looked at photos shared on the Internet and wondered, -“What is it exactly that I am supposed to look at?” Getting closer to your subject will erase all doubts and the viewer will immediately understand what he or she is meant to see. I am not an expert on mobile photography, but seeing what is intended to be seen is kind of the point, wouldn’t you agree?

Have a look at this infographic and really get into each of the 8 tips. No doubt they are going to help you perfect your mobile photography skills to a point where people will be at a loss for words. Express your own imagination through the photos you take. You do that best by being daring, curious and immersing yourself in creativity. Show us your imagination!
