5 Tips to Make Your Photo Standouts

Every photographer wants to shoot some of the best pictures of his life every time he uses his camera. However, pictures that actually stand out and grab the attention of the viewers are rare. If you love photography and want your photos to be unique and creative, you have to think different and act different. Although capturing stunning photos is really tough, proper techniques and rigorous practice will make it possible. Here are some useful photography tips that will help you achieve perfection:

Shoot your subject only when its relaxed

If you want some great and natural shots then let your subject relax and pose for you. For example - if you are shooting a kid, don't force him/her to look in the camera but bend down to his level to get the perfect shot. Sometimes it is better to get down to the level of the subject rather than making him look in the camera because that might make the subject feel uncomfortable. 

Take your shots from close

Sometimes to get good and detailed shot of your subject, you have to eliminate the background or simply defocus it. If you want such standouts shots, shoot your subject from very close or you can even use zoom and use macro mode function of your camera. This will help in producing amazing shots when you cover your subject completely in the viewfinder of your camera lens.

Keep your background simple

A simple and plain photography background is very effective when you want your subject to get all the importance. If you are using some attractive background or noisy background, it this will distract the viewers. So, always keep your background simple to make your subject look more attractive.

Choose a photo that reflects emotion

If you want your pictures to look different, capture some emotions in them. You can capture your subject in any mood that suits the theme of the photographs such as laughter, crying, anger, pain, nervousness, etc. Don't shoot dull, emotionless pictures; instead let the emotions flow and reflect the purpose of the picture.

Rule of third is a good option

This rule is very effective in photography and if you want great shots then follow it by placing your subject off the centre. Sometimes the subject at the center may be boring so you can put your subject one-third at the side of the center.

Capturing good pictures is all about good practice and smart visualization. Before you click a shot, visualize it and identify the areas of improvement.
