How to take better photos with your iPhone

These days, taking awesome photos has become easier than ever, especially if you have an Iphone.
From capturing professional-quality photos to keeping the entire album with you, almost everything
that was once the forte of a professional photographer can be done.
If you wonder how some people capture incredible photographs through their iPhones,
here are the secrets of mastering the skills that would empower you to capture stellar photographs.

Leverage Portrait mode
You can use the Portrait mode in your iPhone Camera app to develop beautifully blurred backgrounds.
All you need to do is tap on Portrait and frame the shot, keeping the subject between 2 and 8 feet from your camera.
When the yellow ‘depth effect’ button appears highlighted, just tap the shutter to capture beautiful bokeh.
Get closer rather than zooming
Many people often complain about the significant loss of quality when they zoom in on something.
To avoid this, make some extra effort to get closer to the subject rather than zooming in on it from a distance.
It will help you avoid having pixelated and grainy pictures.

Use Burst mode to capture action shots
This easy and quick modification to the shutter button lets you take 10 shots per second.
Just tap and hold the finger on your shutter button, and your iPhone will do the rest.
Burst mode is ideal for capturing fast-moving actions.

Swipe left to access camera instantly
Sometimes, picture-perfect moments like a split-second expression or a sunray peeping through the clouds happen too fast.
In these scenarios, if your iPhone is locked and you want to capture those moments, just swipe to the left on the locked screen and the camera will immediately open.

Prevent camera shake by using the volume button
In an iPhone, the shutter actually releases when your finger is removed from the button.
Combined with how you need to hold your phone to get a good shot and the slim size of it,
there remains a high probability of a significant amount of camera shake that leads to blurry photos.
To avoid this, just use the volume up button of your iPhone to release the shutter.

Conclusion
iPhone photography may look like an uphill task, but if you can use the above tips successfully,
you will find that it is actually not that difficult. And the biggest reward would be when you start taking
incredible photos with your iPhone as it will be extremely difficult to believe that they were shot with just a phone.
