How to Take Good Scene Pictures

Aug 7, 2009 12:06 AM

So, you have the look down. Big hair, check. Tight clothes, check. Vegetarian, check. Although when it comes to taking Myspace pictures, you just can't seem to get it right at all!

Perfect your look. You may not have to be completely perfectly scene all the time, but when you take pix, it's a big deal. Add extra eyeliner, brighter eyeshadow, rat your hair some more. Make it obvious.

Get an NV. They are a lot easier to handle than a big digital camera, but still take high quality pix. And if you're scene, you're texting on one anyway. They also make it really easy to send your pix to an e-mail.

Angle. It just takes practice. It really does. Get a TriPod to set your camera on. Then take the picture. Learn what looks good and stick to it.

Have good lighting. Find a place with good lighting, and take your pictures there.

Use a photo editing program such as Photoshop, Paint, or Gimp. It's nice for erasing a random zit or taming frizzy hair. Never use it to make yourself look thinner or something because people will figure it out.

Try different poses and such. If all else fails, throw on your huge sunglasses and have a friend take a pic from above while you're facing into a blowing wind or fan. They usually turn out well.

Tips

  • Practice makes perfect. Don't be afraid to take a hundred pictures... it's a digital camera, after all!
  • Try black and white photos, they usually come out the best. (unless your hair is colored!)
