10 tips for a good picture
Look your subject in the eye
  Direct eye contact can be as engaging in a picture as it is in real life. When taking a picture of someone, hold the
camera at the person's eye level to unleash the power of those magnetic gazes and mesmerizing smiles. For children, that
means stooping to their level. And your subject need not always stare at the camera. All by itself that eye level angle will
create a personal and inviting feeling that pulls you into the picture.

Use a plain background
  A plain background shows off the subject you are photographing. When you look through the camera viewfinder, force
yourself to study the area surrounding your subject. Make sure no poles grow from the head of your favorite niece and that
no cars seem to dangle from her ears.

Watch the light
Next to the subject, the most important part of every picture is the light. It affects the appearance of everything you
photograph. On a great-grandmother, bright sunlight from the side can enhance wrinkles. But the soft light of a cloudy day
can subdue those same wrinkles.

Use flash outdoors
  Bright sun can create unattractive deep facial shadows. Eliminate the shadows by using your flash to lighten the face.
When taking people pictures on sunny days, turn your flash on. With a digital camera, use the picture display panel to
review the results.


Know your flights range
The number one flash mistake is taking pictures beyond the flash's range. Why is this a mistake? Because pictures taken beyond the maximum flash range will be too dark. For many cameras, the maximum flash range is less than fifteen feet—about five steps away.

What is your camera's flash range? Look it up in your camera manual. Can't find it? Then don't take a chance. Position yourself so subjects are no farther than ten
