In this blog post, I am going to explain the “Looking Up” photography method I enjoy using.
💡
There are so many ways to take pictures! But when thinking about camera angles, and positioning – which one works best?

Angles for photos:
- Looking up
- Looking down
- Snail eye view (search my blog for this post)
- Full on central
- Side views/angles
Today, it’s the “looking up” technique.

To do this, you want to have your lens/camera/phone parallel with the sky.
This adds height, strength, power and dimension to your pictures. It’s a really cool way to have different photos, which is easy to achieve.

For this image, I turned the camera on my phone to selfie, placed my phone pretty much on the soil, and clicked to take the snap!
First go!
After a slight edit, and a crop out of the lamppost – it’s one of my favourite photos.
