How to take better pictures | Jessica Lloyd Photography | Family Photographer

I frequently get asked how to take better pictures.  So I thought I'd share a tip.  Know your camera.  Read the manual, and figure out what the heck it means.  I know most camera manuals aren't written in an easy to understand jargon, but it's a very good resource for you to learn how to take better pictures.  You need to know your camera.  Learn what all the buttons mean, what the settings do.  You don't have to shoot in manual to take a great picture, but it really helps to know the basics of what your camera is doing so that you know which setting to put it in to capture that shot, just the way you want it.
