Here’s a little video that I put together on how to take a better photo. I mainly focus on portraits but these tips can be applied to any photo. Thank you so much to Johanna for modeling most of these photos and a few videos. Here are the tips that I will cover in the video but you’ll have to watch it to hear the explanations:

Lighting
Triangles
Frame Within A Frame
Leading Lines
Rule Of Thirds

I wish the day that we shot these was less cloudy because I was hoping for some direct golden hour light, but we worked with the even lighting from the overcast sky just fine! Also this day was one of the fall days that was warm but got cold as the sun went down, so thank you to Johanna for enduring the chilliness :) Thanks again to everyone reading this for stopping by this blog once again. Please enjoy these tips and this video and remember them the next time you’re shooting or even just taking a photo for Instagram!

At least one of these tips are used in each of these images! Watch the video up top to learn more!
