7 Tips to Help You Take Better Drone Photos

Drones are more convenient and powerful than ever, and they can be a really fun way to find a new perspective and invigorate your creativity. If you are new to flying cameras and wondering how you can get better photos, this helpful video tutorial will give you seven tips to start you on your way. 

Coming to you from Mike Smith, this awesome video tutorial will give you seven tips to help you take better photos with your drone. Drones can be a ton of fun, but being literally an entirely new perspective, they can take a little while to get used to. One thing to remember is to always vary the camera angle as you are looking for shots. Photographers commonly point the camera straight at the horizon for a more traditional look, and there is certainly nothing wrong with that, but don't forget to explore the other things you can do with the drone. For example, pointing the camera straight down from a high vantage point can yield more abstract, geometric photos that simply would not be possible from the ground and can be a great way to breathe new life into places you have shot before. Check out the video above for the full rundown.
