Mastering Composition in Photography

Your photos aren't ugly, your composition is just lazy. You need to stop

centering every single subject. The real secret is negative space and the rule of

thirds, which means giving your subject room to breathe so the viewer's eye has

somewhere to travel. It is all about visual hierarchy. If everything in your design is big

and loud, nothing is important. Use grids to organize the chaos and guide the brain.

And seriously, stop cutting off people’s feet at the ankles. Master these invisible

lines, and you stop taking snapshots and start telling actual stories.
