A Few Photo Taking Tips

If you use the following tips when taking your photos, you’re sure to have some really great photos that you can use when you make your photo gift.

• Make sure the background is very simple or even plain in color.
• Get in close so you can easily see the person you’re taking a photo of.
• Try to get on the same level as the person you’re photographing so you are getting a photo of them straight on vs. looking down or up at them.

Experiment a little to see if you can come up with a new photo idea by thinking outside the box.
