Basic Photography Tips

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Eric, from Motorola’s M80 website sent me an email today about a series of video tutorials they had posted back in Dec.

Whether you’re a casual point-and-shooter or an aspiring shutterfly, this new video series presented by Motorola will provide some valuable tips for shooting great photos. In these three videos Professional Photographer Reggie Casagrande explains how to utilize lighting, compose your picture, and pose subjects for the best possible photos.

I took a peek at them and they do give you some basic ideas on lighting, composition and posing your subjects. It might not be earth-shattering stuff for those of you who’ve been hardcore photographers for awhile, but if you’re just starting out or want to know how to take better photos in general, these short tips might just come in handy!

The F-22 Raptor is…
