Hello,
There are some great moments captured by people who meet via Fab, however the photos themselves are often taken badly, blurry, bad colours, bad composition.
I have been a photographer and filmmaker for 8 years, so I have a few tips for everyone to get the best.
You don't need a fancy camera, most smarthphones are good quality now too:
- Use natural light if possible - flash is awful, especially a close up of a cock
- Use side lamps, bedside lamps, big or small, and angle them in different directions - rather than the main light on the ceiling. This gives a more dynamic effect with shadows.
- Place a camera on a stool, chair, window, anything to keep it more steady if low light. It will be more sharp - this is especially a good idea when filming too!
- Think about the background - on floors, interesting carpets, furniture. If hotel, take al the branding out of the way. Menus, those horrible patterned sheet in cheap hotels. Keep sheets white only, makes a nice clean interesting shot
- Get above, shoot downwards, or get low and shoot upwards. Try angles.
Hope these tips help, have a go - and post the results.
Basically experiment!
Cheers
