In this short overview, you'll get an introduction to mobile photography, including the value of using a free camera app rather than your phone's own camera. 

A tip that all the best mobile photographers know is not to use your phone's default camera app.  In this lecture, we'll give you a tutorial on a free app you can use to take pictures which capture much more data than your default camera.  Why is it essential you know this?  The more data in the image file you capture, the more flexibility you have to edit it and create maximum visual impact. 

Light - one of the main ingredients of successful photography.  We'll show you how to use light to create drama or evoke differnt moods in your pictures.  Different times of the day will provide you with different light and this lesson is about experimenting with this to create amazing results. 

This lesson is getting creative and getting beyond that fear of shooting pictures through objects.  By playing arou with this, sometimes you'll get some great results; sometimes it'll look a bit strange.  Either way, you'll really be developing as a photographer. 

Ask most people to take a photograph and they'll point the camera at the person or object and "click".  As an expert photographer, you'll need to change the angles and point of view.  We'll give you some practical techniques to change the impression or mood of a picture by playing around with different angles.  This can transform the visual impact.     

In this lesson we'll help you get creative with your photography.  The best photographers can see simple objects or common scenes and create their own interpreation of this.  All photograhpers play around, sometimes with interesting results, good and bad.  We'll encourage you to play, try different ideas and come up with that killer original picture that your audience will love!

We'll help you grab and hold your audience's attention on your pictures.  This is done through composition such as the focal points, balance, bokeh, leading lines etc. 

The eye is naturally drawn to balance.  This lesson will cover some composition structures you can use to help give your pictures balance.  This will be more attractive to your audience meaning greater engagement and a positive reaction to your photographs. 

In this lesson, you'll hear about what negative space is and how you can use it to draw your audience's eye to the main subject of your picture.  This will help you compose your picture to tell your own unique story through your pictures.  And it's your unique story that your followers and audience really want to hear. 

Say no to using the zoom on your camera!  We'll explain this and how you can play around with "depth of field" to improve your photography of close up objects.  In this, we'll show you how you can change the ordinary into the extraordinary, simply by getting up close and personal to it.

A prop can be any item that can help you share the story you want to tell through your photography.  We'll give you some ideas and examples to help trigger your creativity to start playing around with props in your pictures.
