People and Composition in Photography

Every time you pick up your camera to take a photo you are capturing a moment in time.  If the subject is something you care about take a few seconds to really see what your camera sees .  Look  to see if your subject  is standing or sitting attractively.  People want to look  there best in a  photograph  and they are usually pleased to adjust their bodies accordingly.  

Take more than one picture and  make sure each picture is a little different.  Such as closer  to the person or further away.  Suggesst  different  hand positions, head tilts and don’t forget the feet.  No smile is ALWAYS better than a fake smile. Try to get your subject to relax by asking questions or saying something funny.  Notice what is beautiful about the person and comment on it because there is always something remarkable  and unique about everyone in front of your camera and they know you care when you pay attention. 

This brings me  to mindful awareness  in your compositions. If you pay attention to every detail that presents itself  threw your camera you are on your way to taking better photographs.
