Mobile Phone Photography - Keep Clicking

The rise of mobile phone photography as an art form, rather than just a convenient way to grab casual snapshots, has greatly inspired me.

We have developed a habit of clicking photographs from our cell phone devices and cherish them later. In most cases, our phone has become our primary camera, but despite tech developments that can see high-end options, most of us have 3.2-megapixel or less with limited functionality. But this doesn't mean you can’t take great photos — it just means you have to be smart about getting the right shot.

If you’re interested in taking better photos with your phone, then have a look through the article for some hints, tips, tricks and ideas for shooting success with your camera phone.

Manage Light - Camera phones always fight with the adjustment of lights. Try using manual settings on your camera phone and experiment on shooting with and without flash. Use the natural light available and try to reduce the harsh flash while shooting portraits.

Lessen the Camera Wobble – One of the greatest challenges with mobile phone cameras is the wobble while clicking images. Although this might help creating a special effect for certain pictures but more often it is an annoying result. Try using both your hands while clicking and try to reduce the shake to click stunning pictures...

Try Black & White – In certain circumstances, the image looks more striking when clicked in Black & white. Some angles enhance the objects and the overall effect of the click when turned to black & white. Portraits and close shots are mostly advisable when clicking in monotone.

Experiment on Different Angles – Experiment with your photography by clicking pictures from different angles. Get near to the ground, shoot from above, and keep clicking on different angles.

The best thing about camera phone snapping is that we never run out of film. So keep trying new approaches on your clicks and categorize the best of them. Remember – “The Best Images are born by imaginative experimentation.”
