1 Right place: Don’t click against the light. i.e. no bright light source is pointing towards your camera. If you can see sunlight falling on your phone, move two step back into shade.

2 Right time: To click awesome pics, choosing the right time is very important. Try to click pictures during golden hour, it’s period of 30 mins around sunset and sunrise.

3 Eye contact: Whenever clicking people or kids, always try to click them at eye-level. Try to bend a littler or lie down on ground while clicking, this can greatly enhance your portraits.

4 Steady hold: A lot of pics clicked from mobile have shake in them, and hence appear blurred. Best way to avoid this is: rest your phone on some table, or bonnet of car when outdoor, or lean against a pole.

5 Phone basics: Make sure you know every single setting in your mobile camera before you go clicking. Settings like white balance can have a huge impact on your photos. Sometimes phones have low resolution set by default to click more pics, set the quality to best resolution possible.
