Find your lighting

The key to a great photograph, is to make sure you have sufficient light. Not enough light, and you won’t be able to see what is in your photo properly. Too much light and you may highlight an area so much that you can’t see it at all! Finding this balance can be tricky, but it is a good idea to always find the source of light (a lamp, the sun, a room light, etc.) and work with it.

Find your angle

Play around with different angles for your shots. Taking a photo from above an object can make it seem small or young. Taking a photo from below also does the opposite, in that it will make the object look big or old. Taking a photograph at the same level of an object can create the sense that you are seeing what they are seeing.

Take your photograph

Really make sure that when taking your photo that you hold your camera still, other wise the photograph may appear distorted and blurry.

Play around with filters

Photo filters, instragram photo, iphone photo app

Filters can make a photo appear brighter, darker or accentuate different colours. Take into account, that if you had lots/not enough light, do not add a filter that puts the photo out of balance.

Admire your beautifully taken photograph!

I'm writing to let you know how impressed we were with Austin today. Such a class act! He was really enthusiastic and did a wonderful job of keeping the boys entertained with all sorts of soccer games. Thanks to Austin and your team at Encore Kids Parties for making my son's 6th birthday party so successful and memorable. T. Nov 2023
