Section 3 – Taking Profitable Pictures :
Now, I want to teach you how to take profitable pictures. Be sure to follow all these tips and techniques so you can take the best pictures possible.
Depth and Lighting :
You want to take high quality pictures. With that in mind, you need to use your phone’s camera instead of the Instagram application to take pictures.
That being said, camera phones don’t have the same depth of field as traditional cameras do, so you actually have to create the shot yourself. You’ll need to use lines, repetition and space with foregrounds and backgrounds. Then, you can top it off by using the Instagram “TiltShift” effect to make the depth really stand out.
Lighting is also incredibly important. First, avoid using the flash. Then, choose soft lighting so you can see the details in the highlights and the shadows. Then, you can edit it when you upload it to Instagram.
Angles and Squares :
You also want to shoot from unusual angles. For instance, shoot down, or shoot up from below. You can also put objects in the foreground and have them blur out. Creative angles will help your pictures stand out.
Keep in mind that Instagram photos are displayed with a 1x1 crop. Because of that, you need to think of your pictures as perfect squares. Thus, when framing a shot, look at it as a square. Anything outside of that square won’t be able to be displayed.
Borders :
Instagram has a lot of cool borders you can use. Borders include:
Borders can make a picture look artistic. Thus, use borders to make your pictures stand out.
