I don't have expensive gadget or cameras. I'm only using a cheap cellphone, OPPO A37. But I love taking photos. How did I managed to get good photos? Here's the secret:
Lighting is very important. Sunlight! For a clearer and more defined image.
Editting yes, I'm using Adobe Lightroom cc. You can install them for free. You don't need filters because we wanted to make your photo look "unedited". Editting is optional. I adjust the colors, brightness, temperature, contrast, sharpness, but not too much. It helps to enhance the real beauty of the picture and even change it's mood!
Be Creative! My subject is always nature. They are just effortlessly beautiful! It just comes with right angles.
You don't need to be a pro. You just need to appreciate things and love it and everything follows! Quality pictures are important because they are your memories. 😊
