The trends of one of the most important social networks so far change constantly. Instagram is the ideal app to share your photos. Therefore, we are going to comment now on some of the best tricks that you can apply right now to improve your photography for Instagram.
Nowadays, many of the mobiles on the market have a high-quality digital camera, so you no longer have to worry about that. What you should take into account, regardless of the mobile you have, is the framing and composition. These two concepts are possibly the most important ones, as each photo asks for and needs a different composition. So, our recommendation to improve your photos is that you let all the elements breathe and contribute something relevant to the photography.
Now that you know how a photo should be framed, all that remains is to play with depth of field, another of the most important concepts in photography. Thanks to the latest generation mobile cameras, we can play with different depths in all types of photos with just one click. The good thing about photography is that it allows you to experiment in every way and depth of field is the best element to do so.
Lighting will be your best ally in every way, and finding a good light will make your photos improve instantly. We recommend that you avoid flash and use a natural light source because it will always be a better option. As we have said, photography allows you to play and light is another of the elements that you must include in this game. Move around and have fun until you get the best natural light effect you can get. Like many elements that we have mentioned above, we must be careful in the way they are applied since, for example, some contrasts can be very beautiful but others can even spoil the picture.
Learning to prepare for photography and find the best environment is another of the things that you must take into account if you want to take the best photos for Instagram. Whether you are taking photos of a landscape, a selfie, a subject in motion, or some objects, you need to take into account the entire artistic direction behind the photo. Use textures and backgrounds that make sense for your photography and remember that currently, it is not necessary to have a professional photography studio or have the best materials at your fingertips to be able to take great photos. Nowadays, what you need is creativity and imagination to be able to take the best photos. You need to go further and see from another perspective.
Although it may seem like a very simple and basic trick, it is necessary to remember that to take a good photo you need to take more than one. And not only that, you have to take a lot of photos to choose the best one and, this way, publish a perfect photo. Also, even if you take millions of photos, for Instagram it is recommended not to publish the same versions of a single photo. That is, you must share the different versions with your followers as long as they are the best and provide something different. Another trick is to play and discover different effects using shutter speed. Also known as exposure time, is the length of time the digital sensor of your camera is exposed to light, while you make a shot.
