The person taking the pictures should be in the memories too. A little planning helps you get a portrait, a photo together and a scene-setting image without spending the whole trip looking at a screen.
Start with these three steps
- 1
Choose one place with a clean background and safe space to stop. Start in open shade when the sun is harsh.
- 2
Take turns using the same frame so both people get a photo they like.
- 3
Use a stable support or ask a friend for a photo together. Check the result before leaving the location.
A brief you can borrow
“Could you take a vertical photo with both of us and the top of the building in frame? This preview is the composition we want.”
Put it into practice
