Tip #1: Lighting
For outdoor photoshoots, you'll get the best lighting either early morning or during that glowing golden hour peaking over the mountains we all love. 🌇 If you're shooting any other time of day, indirect sunlight is best to avoid the harsh lighting! For indoor photoshoots, look for places that have natural light coming through the window. Trust us, it does wonders! ✨
Tip #2: Angles
Make sure all your background objects and horizons are lined up straight! (ie. the shoreline, tables, walls, etc.) Nothing throws off a good photo like crooked lines! 🌅
Tip #3: Shadows
Make sure the photographers silhouette isn't in the shot. We don't want a shadow of someone's head in the photo to take away from the beautiful subject - you! 😉☀️
Tip #4: Background
Find a pretty backdrop like an open field 🌾 a colorful wall with flowers 🌼 an old building 🕍 the mountains ⛰ or our fave, the beach! 🏝 It'll take your photos to another level of gorg!
