How to improve your candid photography?

Photography over the years have evolved considerably and every generation likes to adopt new styles in photography that will suit their tastes. One such style of photography which is quite distinct from the traditional mode of photography is called candid photography. While candid photography can be applied in any situation where you want to capture the mood of people, most of the time it is used to shoot wedding events. If you want to become a successful wedding photographer in India (or for that matter anyplace else), you need to hone your skill in taking candid photographs. In this article, we will like to give you some tips that well-known candid wedding photographers India use in their daily shoot.

1). The first point you need to remember while taking candid pictures is that to take pictures of any spontaneous reaction, you should use burst mode so that later while editing you can choose the best shot for that occasion.

2). While taking photos in a big event like a wedding, you will find that there are some people who become a bit self-conscious staring at a camera lens. To avoid such situation, you should learn how to take photos from the hip height so that so that you can blend in with the crowd and take photos without inviting attention.

3). You should always move around in the crowd to take the best possible shots. Staying in one place will not give you many opportunities to find good moments to shoot photos.

4). Try to minimise the use of flash so that you can take photos of people in their natural activities.
