Take Smartphone Photos Like A Pro Photographer

I went to my last-ever university ball on Thursday. Among other things, such as dolling up in the prettiest dresses, drinking just a little too much and dancing the night away, university balls are known to involve taking lots and lots of glamorous photos.

It was during one of these photo-taking sessions that a friend happened to showed me something really neat about iPhone cameras: you can adjust the brightness while taking a photo!

What this means is that, whenever you’re pointing your iPhone camera towards something, and the photo appears too dark or too bright, you’ll be able to adjust the brightness to a setting that’s just right. No more dark, blurry photos!

Here’s how you do it:

1. Open up your iPhone Camera by going to your menu screen and tapping on the Camera app
2. Point your camera towards something that you wish to take a photo of
3. Tap the screen on wherever you wish the Camera to focus
4. You’ll see a yellow box with a little sun icon on the right
5. Swipe upwards on your screen to make the photo brighter. The little sun icon will move upwards
6. Swipe downwards on your screen to make the photo darker. The little sun icon will move downwards
