Smartphone Photography: Total Workflow for Beginners (Smartphone Photography for Beginners)

Camera phones now come with larger sensors and more advanced computational photography processing, are outperforming portable compact cameras and even entry-level DSLR or mirrorless cameras. There is currently a trend towards smartphone photography, with photography enthusiasts leaning towards their smartphones to capture special moments or any shots they need rather than carrying around heavy professional cameras all the time.

To begin, you will receive a comprehensive introduction to the fundamentals of photography, including essential information that anyone new to photography should be familiar with, such as what, why, and how. Furthermore, I will offer you valuable tips on how to elevate your photo composition skills, giving you a competitive edge over others. I will also equip you with the knowledge to edit your shots entirely on your smartphone and provide additional insights on industry-standard compositional techniques.

Our goal is to blur the distinction between photos captured by a professional camera and those taken by your smartphone, with the aim of eliciting the question, “Wow, which camera did you use to take this shot?”
