It’s better to zoom with your feet, and get up as close as possible to the subject, or just crop your high-quality photo later. Closing in on your subject with a digital zoom also enlarges pixels from the middle of the frame and diminishes both resolution and image quality. Sure, digital zoom seems helpful in the moment, but it actually diminishes photo quality because the phone is effectively cropping your image before you shoot, removing detail from the scene. The overall holiday atmosphere is bound to be festive, especially when kids are opening their presents under the tree, but don’t be afraid to push the spirit of the day even more. And it can make items, like toys, wrapping, or presents, look larger. To photograph subjects smaller than you, like pets and kids, try moving your body down to their level, even if that means kneeling or lying on the floor or ground so that you are eye to eye with them.Ĭhanging the shooting angle lets viewers share a similar perspective as the subject, making the photo feel more personal. The trick for some photos is to exit your own comfort zone and place the lens where your subject is. But that doesn’t always yield the best picture. Generally, the most comfortable shooting position and perspective is the one you’re naturally in, sitting or standing. Daylight shots make natural lighting easier and often show subjects in high energy or happy moods. If you’re in a moderate climate, try shooting outside during the day either before or after the holiday feast. That makes it more likely that everyone’s eyes are open and generally looking toward the camera, and avoids stilted “say cheese” second and third takes. For an unruly bunch, try holding down the shutter button for burst mode, and then choose the best one. This crowd is wonderfully aligned and looking into the camera, but other groups, especially with kids, may not be so disciplined. It’s great if your subjects are involved in a group activity, because you won’t have to pose them. Unless you have a huge family or you’re at a big event like a company party, you will likely be able to fit more partygoers into a single group shot than you think. While most of the iPhone’s default camera functions can be effortlessly committed to muscle memory, a few specific techniques can produce outstanding holiday memories. The iPhone’s camera, always at hand, makes it easy to capture and embellish great photos, while letting you unobtrusively mix in with holiday festivities. Your iPhone is the gateway to holiday memories with friends and family.
