3. Select A Single Color And Focus Your Photographs Around It
Select a single color and try creating a portfolio using different shades of that color. You can do this using different colors, if you have time to spare. For instance, if you pick blue then take pictures of places and things where blue is evident, such as the sky or a body of water. Look for places that are colored or painted in various shades of blue. For a color like yellow, look for a sunflower field, or take pictures when the subjects are bathing in a golden colored sunlight. The options are endless.
4. Photograph Something You’re Not Used To
As a photographer, it is best to expand your horizons and take pictures of things you are not used to. For instance, if you are an event photographer or are used to photographing people, then maybe try landscape photography one weekend. By doing this, your photos will require new settings and angles since you won’t simply be photographing people. This new subject will allow you to intercept it in a totally different way. Landscape photography will require a whole bunch of different things, like nature’s lighting, shutter speed, more depth, and so on. Once you get used to photographing a new subject, you will gain more understanding of your photography and the different settings of your camera.
