Phone Shot Guide

Better photos with the phone in your pocket

Composition without rules to memorise

Where to put things, and why the edges matter.

Tap, hold, and slide: focus and exposure

Taking control of the two things the phone guesses at.

A calmer approach to night shots

Steady hands, still subjects, and what night mode is doing.

Editing with a light hand

A simple order of adjustments that keeps photos looking real.
