Most modern phones have a built-in camera. But since the quality of the images is not high, it is used to save notes, recordings and posting in social networks (using photo filters, like Instagram). But there are ways with which you can take high-quality pictures of the right moments with a simple phone camera.

Instructions
Step 1
Pay attention to the light.
The picture will be of better quality if you choose a place “along the way” with light: the light should be directed in the same direction as the camera lens. But you can experiment with light and shadows: use openwork fabrics, blinds, objects that give off unusual shadows, direct the camera towards the light.
Step 2
Get closer.
Digital zoom is much worse than optical, and in the case of a camera, where the number of megapixels does not exceed 12, it is almost useless. Therefore, take pictures at a short distance.
Step 3
Remember the composition.
An incomprehensible background can ruin any picture. Sometimes, taking a snapshot of a unique moment, we can forget about the objects in the background, but they can eventually draw all the attention to themselves, and not because they are very good. Strangers, signs, wall hangings - push everyone out of the frame.
Step 4
Do not worry.
Many people are still embarrassed to take pictures with a phone in a public place, hold the device awkwardly and, as a result, get blurry and sloppy pictures. Away from all doubts, hold your phone tighter - now you will have a cool photo!
Step 5
More workout.
The more pictures you take, the better they get. It's all about practice. Therefore, come up with photo tasks for yourself to take many different pictures and gain experience.
Step 6
No performances.
The phone camera is designed for taking pictures of the here and now - moments of everyday life. Therefore, do not even take the time to photograph staged shots - take pictures of real life to adapt and find convenient options for holding the camera, playing with the light and working on the background.
Step 7
Always be ready.
Something interesting is always happening around us: something obvious, but something needs to be watched. Therefore, learn how to quickly take out the phone and turn on the camera. And yes, don't worry about the opinions of others if your phone produces a shutter sound).
Step 8
Use dedicated apps.
Sometimes a little Photoshop doesn't hurt: use a variety of photo editing programs.
