Smartphone photography tips & tricks you should know
By: The Nixplay Team
Here are some great tips on how to take great photos for your nixplay Cloud Frame using your smartphone.
1) How to fit everything into your frame.
If you’re an Instagrammer, you would be familiar with the square frame format and will find that it is difficult to fit everything within the size restrictions. To avoid this issue, we advise taking the photos outside of the Instagram app so you can then frame your photo wisely. Don’t forget to sync your Instagram account with your nixplay Digital Frame so you can start displaying your best photos in your home instantly!
2) Filters!
Don’t go crazy with choosing your filters – you want your photos to look natural. Choosing filters can be fun but bear in mind that you may lose certain details if you choose the “wrong” filter in smartphone photography. Sometimes a photograph can look best without having a filter at all. So choose wisely, and make sure you get the right feel with the filter you choose.
3) Editing beyond the filters.
If filters don’t do the job and you still need to edit your photo, try using the editing app “PE-Fotolr”. It allows you to edit all sorts of things from fixing the color tones of your photos to cleaning up your blemishes – this could definitely be your next favorite app after Instagram and next step to being a pro at smartphone photography! Happy snapping!
