Phone Camera Tips

Get pro results from your smartphone.

Clean Your Lens

Wipe your phone lens before the event. Fingerprints cause blurry, hazy photos.

Use Portrait Mode

Modern phones have great portrait modes that create professional-looking background blur.

Tap to Focus

Always tap on your subject to ensure they're in focus, not the background.

Avoid Digital Zoom

Move closer instead of zooming. Digital zoom ruins photo quality.

Hold Steady

Brace your arms or use both hands. Shaky photos ruin otherwise great moments.

Take Multiple Shots

Take 3-5 photos of important moments. You can delete extras later.

Share Your Photos

Great photos deserve to be shared.
