Easy techniques to use on photography to make it look professional ?

Above says it all , any cool little tricks I use hump by the way

It takes practice. I’m a beginning photographer, and I just started taking photos last summer.

-Lighting conditions are essential. A slow shutter speed can make a picture impossible to take.

-Contrary to what some people say, a lot depends on your equipment. Really your lens.
Some scenes require certain lenses to make it at its fun potential.
High focal lengths (zooms) for sports,
wide angle lenses for for sunsets, landscapes.
macro lenses for flowers etc.
wide apertures for portraits

lenses are expensive, so its always nice to have an extra 1000 around.

the best thing to do to take better pictures fast, is to take pictures everyday. I always have my photo 30 seconds away from myself when I am not at school.

If you have the cash, try to get a DSLR if you don’t have one already. They are fast, relatively easy to learn, and much more user-friendly to a good photographer who wants to control shutter speeds, aperture, sensitivity etc. I got mine for 500$ (Nikon D40x, same as D60). but the Nikon D40, with a standard lens (18-55 mm usually) can sell for 550$ which is a very good foundation for an aspiring photographer.

Photography is one of the most rewarding hobbies you can get into, hope you do well!
