Hello! Welcome to my Photography Journal. Here I will be posting my top tips and tricks in the Photography world.

Whether you are a beginner or experienced photographer, it is so important to remember the key steps to enhance your photos – read below!

1. Golden Hour Magic

Today, I experimented with shooting during the golden hour – that magical time just after sunrise and before sunset. The soft, warm light lent a captivating glow to my subjects, creating a mesmerizing effect.

2. Rule of Thirds

Remembering to apply the rule of thirds brought my compositions to life. Placing points of interest along the intersections or lines creates a dynamic balance that draws the viewer’s eye.

3. Leading Lines

While wandering the streets, I noticed how using natural lines – like roads, fences, or pathways – guided the viewer’s gaze, adding depth and movement to my shots.

4. Patience Pays Off

I spent extra time observing my surroundings, waiting for the perfect moment to capture. Patience rewarded me with shots that revealed hidden details and emotions.

5. Experiment with Perspective

Exploring different angles and perspectives allowed me to capture familiar subjects in fresh, captivating ways. Sometimes, a low or high vantage point can make all the difference.

6. Minimalism Speaks Volumes

Today, I tried simplifying my compositions, focusing on a single subject against a clean background. This minimalistic approach conveyed a powerful message.

7. Editing as a Tool

Back home, I discovered the power of post-processing. Subtle adjustments to contrast, saturation, and cropping elevated my photos to new levels.

8. Tell a Story

I strived to tell stories through my shots. Whether it’s capturing a child’s laughter or a weathered face, each photo can narrate a unique tale.
