Gearing up for CNY with noods and a new phone by testing out #portraitmode on the #iPhone7. I always get asked about what makes a good photo so here goes... Lighting is 🔑 !!! Good light means more dynamic range and more depth in your colors. One thing I do is always look for decent lighting. While natural lighting is great, it's not always the case especially when you're out for dinner. Sometimes you have to ask to get seated closer to the window or swap seats to move out of a shadow. Watch out for backlit photos where you're shooting directly into a light source, leaving your subjects dark and underexposed. Stay tuned for more tips and Happy Chinese New Year! 🍜🍜🍜
