- Four videos on light, composition, everyday phone photography, and editing—different perspectives to help you make more of the camera you carry.
The first two videos cover light and composition through general photography lessons, with ideas you can apply to phone photos. The next two focus on phone photography tips and editing in Snapseed. The order follows the process of making a photo: notice the light, decide what belongs in the frame, take the shot, and refine it.
Try one idea with a photo of your own. A portrait, a cup on the table, or a familiar street is a good place to start.
