HERE'S HOW ⤵

✏ Tip 1:
Have an idea of what you want to capture and how. Knowing the basics of photography is very useful (such as shutter speed, aperture and ISO), but not necessary, especially when you're just starting out. Most cameras have a fully automatic shooting mode, so you don't have to shoot in manual and figure out all the settings. Though I highly recommend it if you want to learn photography faster. Don't be afraid to play around with it and potentially mess up.

✏ Tip 2:
Learn to properly edit your pictures in @lightroom and stop using filters over your images. This makes all the difference! I made my own presets to shorten the editing process. With just one click, my image receives the basic adjustments. Also notice how all my images in my feed have the same look and feel. It's because I edit them the same way every time. Coherency is key.

✏ Tip 3:
Shoot RAW as opposed to JPEG. This ensures you capture a greater amount of image data, which gives you much more flexibility during the editing process. Side note: RAW files will take up a massive amount of space on your SD card, so be sure to prepare enough storage space.

Hope you find this helpful! Have a lovely day ⋒
