Pictures should be layered.
When choosing photographic pictures, we should fully consider the master-slave relationship between foreground, middle scene, background and subject. For example, the subject is placed in the foreground of the lens, while the background is blurred by depth. Or shoot the subject through windows, mirrors, etc. This can increase the meaning and interest of photos.
Know your equipment
First of all, photographers should be familiar with how your mobile phone camera works and understand its limitations. Usually, mobile phone cameras have a certain shutter speed range and fixed aperture, so users need to know them well and get the best exposure effect by adjusting ISO.
Proper cutting
Correct cropping can change or enhance the image effect when the photographer has enough time to carefully compose the composition. Sometimes the picture changes quickly, and the user needs to respond immediately, so there is not enough time for detailed composition. At this time, it is suggested that the photographer shoot a wider picture than actually needed, and then use the editing application to cut it later. The resolution of mobile phone cameras is getting higher and higher every generation, and even if it is deleted, it will not affect the image quality too much.
Composition is king.
Use curve composition and diagonal composition with perspective effect.
Mobile phone photography, like any professional equipment photography, should pay attention to the following composition problems:
Keep Horizontal-Check that the horizontal and vertical lines in the picture are correct. Many mobile phone applications have a horizontal horizon and a grid as a reference.
Trinity rule-put the subject in about one-third of the picture, which makes people feel that the picture is harmonious and full of beauty.
Use accessories
Many times, if the photographer has some accessories or gadgets, it can make the shooting process more enjoyable:
Find a mobile tripod to shoot stably.
Use all kinds of magnetic lenses: fisheye, wide angle and telephoto, which is better than digital zoom.
A pair of reading glasses or other clever tricks to save money may also help you get the same effect as a SLR camera.

The exposure should be accurate.
Only when the exposure is accurate can the photographer finally get a good photo effect, whether it is a mobile phone camera or a digital SLR camera. An improperly exposed photo, even with powerful editing applications and filters, the exposure of the photo will not change. Therefore, we should pay special attention to the correct exposure when shooting, and don't pin it on the special effects in the later period.
For mobile phone cameras, better photos can often be taken when there is sufficient outdoor light, but we should also be patient in finding the most suitable light. When the light in the shadow is insufficient, you can use white paper to reflect the light, or use a mobile phone screen such as a flashlight as a supplementary light source, and use all your knowledge to get the best light as much as possible. Use the flash of your smartphone only as a last resort.
Take more photos.
The advantage of digital photography is that there is no limitation of negative film, and the shooting effect can be feedback immediately. Moreover, there is one more thing to add to mobile digital photography: the equipment is light and portable. With such convenient conditions, we should not be too stingy when we meet a beautiful moment. Only by taking more photos can we find the best products. For beginners in photography, it is especially necessary to take more pictures, because they are often not so agile and inexperienced in capturing wonderful pictures in a short time.
Adjust the shooting angle
Photography lovers can look for different shooting angles to break the oneness of the picture. Try from multiple angles, such as front, side, head-up, looking up, etc. This will add interest to your photography. Compared with those bulky cameras, a small mobile phone will not be a burden to you, but it has an advantage. Don't be afraid to fall to the ground or climb on the windowsill. It can let you get close to and focus on the details of the subject, or take a bird's eye view of a wider and more far-reaching place and get a good photo that is rarely seen at ordinary times.
Black and white special effects
Photography enthusiasts can also try to take classic black and white photos in traditional optical photography with their mobile phones:
Removing color can often restore the essence of things and enhance the appeal of photos.
Eliminate the color of competition.
Black-and-white visual effects are particularly eye-catching when shooting backlight and silhouette photos.
For shooting in a complex environment, black and white photos can make the background of the photos more concise and not usurp the host's role.
Use a photography application
Camera+ and Camera Awesome applications of Apple's iOS system have the functions of grid tools, color gradient, image editing and exposure, focus control and so on. They can not only provide various filters, but also have an interface to help users quickly upload and share pictures to social media sites.
