Are you trying to snap some photos to publish on your blog but can’t seem to capture any that look good enough? Many bloggers find it difficult to snap good photos if they don’t have much experience, yet there are a few ways that you can improve – quickly.
As much as it’s true that photography does require experience, learning some of the basic techniques can help a lot. In particular there are 3 ways that you can snap better photos immediately:
- Start holding your camera steady
One of the main reasons why many amateur photos suffer in terms of quality is because the camera wasn’t held steady. As such the photos can turn out blurry and lacking in definition. To fix that you should start to try to hold your camera steady, and ideally should grip it with two hands and with your elbows locked at your side to prevent any unwanted movements.
- Use the rule of thirds to frame the photo
By turning on the ‘grid’ on your camera, your frame will be divided into thirds both vertically and horizontally. Try to position your subject and other elements using those lines, and in particular you may want to try positioning your subject in one third (left or right) or on an intersection point.
- Ensure the lighting is good
Good lighting is generally bright but soft light. If possible you will want an ample source of light nearby, but not directly pointed at the subject or it will cause an increase in contrast between the highlights and shadows. A nearby open window, or snapping photos outdoors will generally provide good natural light.
If you make it a point to take advantage of these methods you should see a marked improvement in the photos that you’re able to snap. Still they aren’t likely to be perfect, which is why you should then load them onto your Mac and use Movavi Photo Editor for Mac (https://www.movavi.com/mac-photo-editor/) to tweak and improve them.
With the features in Movavi Photo Editor for Mac you can enhance the quality of your photos, transform their frame and orientation, fix common issues, and apply artistic filters. Additionally you can touch up any portraits, remove unwanted objects, replace the background, add captions, and much more as well.
Simply put you will have ample ways in which you can ensure your photos are exactly the way you want before you publish them on your blog. The best part is that you don’t need any experience, and can just fire up Movavi Photo Editor for Mac and start editing your photos almost immediately – then just learn the ropes as you experiment and try out its features.
