Women always ensure they look their best before a trip, waking up early to get ready and even practicing poses to ensure they capture the perfect shot. However, all this effort can be wasted if their travel companion is a poor photographer. There have been cases of couples arguing because the husband didn’t take good photos, and the wife was left feeling disappointed.
Poorly taken photos can lead to… marital discord.
Even world-renowned star Hyun Bin goes the extra mile to capture the perfect shot for his wife, Son Ye Jin. Netizens noticed this when they zoomed in on a photo shared by Son Ye Jin recently. In the photo, Hyun Bin can be seen crouching and widening his stance to make Son Ye Jin’s legs look longer. Seeing her husband’s dedication, Son Ye Jin couldn’t help but smile, and she happily shared the photo he took. Hyun Bin must also be delighted that his wife is pleased with his photography skills.

So, it’s beneficial to learn how to take good photos. Anyone can improve their phone photography skills with the following tips.
Shoot from a lower angle
For full-body shots, shooting from a lower angle will make the subject appear taller and slimmer. This is why Hyun Bin crouched down to capture Son Ye Jin’s photo perfectly.
The photographer should stand at a height that is one-third of the subject’s body and angle the phone upwards by about 25 degrees.
In addition to shooting from a lower angle, you can also apply the rule of thirds and ensure the subject’s feet touch the bottom edge of the frame. This composition creates a sense of depth and harmony in the photo.
The vertical frame and feet touching the bottom edge of the frame create a balanced and striking composition.
Shoot with the right lighting
Natural light is the best “filter” for any photo. Shooting with the right lighting will make the subject look radiant and even give the illusion of a slimmer face with more depth. The best times for lighting are during sunrise or sunset (3 to 5 pm), when the light is soft and creates a beautiful contrast in photos.

Shooting with proper lighting and in the right direction creates a radiant look for the subject.
For phone photography, it’s best to shoot with the light source in front of you. You can also use a mini reflector to enhance your portrait photos.

Compose your shots thoughtfully
Avoid shooting from the same frontal angle with the subject in the center all the time. Try the rule of thirds, the rule of two-thirds, or shooting at a 45-degree angle to add depth to your photos. A well-composed shot will be visually appealing and flattering to the subject.
Also, avoid shooting with a cluttered background, as it can be distracting and take away from the main subject.
Use the grid feature on your camera to help you compose your shots.
Shoot continuously
Shooting in continuous mode (live) will capture natural moments and increase your chances of getting a great shot. When taking photos of your partner, don’t hesitate to change angles and let them pose freely. Your dedication will touch them, and everyone will be happy with the stunning photos.
Shooting continuously and from different angles will help you find the perfect shot.
Every photo reflects the photographer’s eye. So, even if you don’t have a natural talent for photography, with practice, a little affection, and a lot of love, you’ll be able to capture memorable moments and create beautiful photos.
