PHOTOS Composition is the key
PHOTO COMPOSITION In order to shoot and then be able to choose great photographs, you need to have a plan.
PHOTO COMPOSITION • Photo composition refers to the arrangement of elements in a photograph. • While the average viewer cannot define what this is, YOU can help make the photo more effective by understanding how to control composition.
RULES OF COMPOSITION Think of these guidelines as you compose the photos you take. • Rule of thirds • Framing • Center of interest • Balance • Leading lines and curves • Pattern and repetition • Camera angle
RULE OF THIRDS Sedona Alvarez, Mill Valley H. S. Use this basic guideline for a well-balanced, pleasing image. First, divide the frame into thirds both horizontally and vertically. Then, place the subject at the intersection of any two lines.
RULE OF THIRDS Sam Johnson, East Lansing H. S. Using this guideline of placing the center of interest in one of the intersections, you can allow the action to flow into the photo.
RULE OF THIRDS Try it. “Draw” the lines on each photo and notice where your eyes go. Chris Hanewinckel, KSU Matt Foss, West Henderson H. S. Karen Kim, Westfield H. S.
FRAMING When you “frame” a photo, you place objects in the foreground to give the illusion of three dimensions. Note that the book in the foreground is slightly out of focus to lead your eye to the girls, who is reading. Erin De La Rosa, Smoky Hill H. S.
FRAMING Alan Dicker, Smoky Hill H. S. The most effective framing occurs when the object in the foreground helps to tell the story of the photograph, as shown in these examples.
FRAMING Karl Sparrman, Mill Valley H. S. Kylie Chapman, Mill Valley H. S. Lee. Ann Elias, Oakton H. S. Framing allows you to add interest to academic photos.
FRAMING Kristen Mrozowski, East Lansing H. S. Thanks to Homecoming floats, you sometimes get the chance to literally “frame” your photo!
CENTER OF INTEREST Chris Hanewinckel, KSU Control where the eye goes first by having one dominant element in each photo. If there is not center of interest, there is no reason to take the photo.
CENTER OF INTEREST Lily Krupp, West Henderson H. S. Another reason to get in close is to eliminate any possible distracting backgrounds.
CENTER OF INTEREST The basic elements of composition often work together. This photo uses the rule of thirds, shallow depth of field and fast shutter speed to create a vivid center of interest. Chris Hanewinckel, KSU
CENTER OF INTEREST Alexandra Tapang, Mill Valley H. S. When in doubt, look at the eyes. They will often pull you into the photo. Karen Kim, Westfield H. S.
CENTER OF INTEREST Kristen Mrozowski, East Lansing H. S. Whether you have a single subject or many, there needs to be one center of interest.
BALANCE Soranie Hirpo, East Lansing H. S. Place the main subject(s) a little off center, because informal balance is more pleasing to the eye than formal balance.
BALANCE Justin Cheung, Westfield H. S. Notice how the placement of the people in the photo adds to the photo’s sense of balance.
BALANCE Annie Kennedy, Pleasant Valley H. S. Athletes often convey balance as they are in motion. Chris Hanewinckel, KSU Alan Dicker, Smoky Hill H. S.
LEADING LINES/CURVES Chris Hanewinckel, KSU Lines and curves direct the viewer’s attention to the center of visual interest.
LEADING LINES/CURVES Matt Foss, West Henderson H. S. Where you stand to take the picture helps determine the effectiveness of strong leading lines.
LEADING LINES/CURVES Lee. Ann Elias, Oakton H. S. Curves are also effective at drawing the viewer into the photo.
LEADING LINES/CURVES Skylar Williams, Basic H. S. In general, diagonal lines have a greater impact than horizontal lines.
LEADING LINES/CURVES Make it a practice to look for leading lines in unexpected places as they will lead to more dynamic photographs. Arturo Reyes, Oxnard H. S.
PATTERN AND REPETITION Chris Hanewinckel, KSU While patterns draw the reader into the picture, it’s the break in the repetition that proves interesting.
PATTERN AND REPETITION Kristi Paukstis, Smoky Hill H. S. Notice how the pattern in the chain link fence is broken by freshmen escaping closed campus.
PATTERN AND REPETITION Chris Hanewinckel, KSU Sometimes repetition is found with the people themselves rather than in objects in the photo.
CAMERA ANGLE Chris Hanewinckel, KSU Move around. Take shots from above, from below, from one side and then another.
CAMERA ANGLE Grant Cooper Richardson, Mc. Clintock H. S. Ellen Gatewood, Mill Valley H. S. Creative camera angles can be especially effective when photographing sports action.
CAMERA ANGLE Lee. Ann Elias, Oakton H. S. Everything, from activities to academics, can be shown more effectively with a creative camera angle.
CAMERA ANGLE Chris Hanewinckel, KSU With the right camera angle, not only is the center of interest clear, but the impact is amazing.
TIPS TO BETTER PHOTOS Consider these principles as you prepare to take pictures at any event. • Keep it simple • Move close • Be aware of light • Capture emotions • Tell the entire story
KEEP IT SIMPLE Travis Ladue, Corona del Sol H. S. Ask yourself: What am I photographing? Then move around and shoot your subject.
Greg Glatz, East Lansing H. S. Kylie Chapman, Mill Valley H. S. Ellen Gatewood, Mill Valley H. S.
Chris Hanewinckel, KSU Lennon Mc. Cartney, Westfield H. S. Justin Cheung, Westfield H. S.
MOVE CLOSE Courtesy of Kim Hanzo Ask yourself: What am I photographing? Then move close and shoot your subject.

Courtney Harrington, Mill Valley H. S. Sedona Alvarez, Mill Valley H. S. Kylie Chapman, Mill Valley H. S.
USE LIGHT KNOWINGLY Light can be your best friend — or your worst enemy. Be aware of where your light source is and then use it to help you tell your story. Chris Hanewinckel, KSU
Kylie Chapman, Mill Valley H. S. Justin Cheung, Westfield H. S. Alan Dicker, Smoky Hill H. S.
Chris Hanewinckel, KSU Kylie Chapman, Mill Valley H. S. Lennon Mc. Cartney, Westfield H. S.
CAPTURE EMOTIONS Chris Hanewinckel, KSU Look for the reaction to the action, the response to events to capture emotion. Don’t be afraid to photograph both the agony and the joy.
Skylar Williams, Basic H. S. Chris Hanewinckel, KSU Lennon Mc. Cartney, Westfield H. S.
TELL THE ENTIRE STORY Lennon Mc. Cartney, Westfield H. S. Show more than the event, the action on the field, the obvious.
