Do you envy your friends for their great selfies and are increasingly convinced that yours are inferior because you are not photogenic? This is wrong thinking. Small changes in how you use your smartphone camera can turn a bad photo into an almost professional one. How?
In the 21st century, the selfie has become an indispensable part of our everyday life. It is not just a portrait, but an expression of our style, personality and current experiences. With it, we document life in a unique way, as we place ourselves in the center of the action and add a personal touch to the photo. Smartphones such as Huawei nova 11 Pro, the new 11i and P60 Pro.

Catch the right moment: Choose a motif that represents you and will bring back warm memories for years to come. These can be family gatherings, parties with friends, work successes or fun moments with pets. Smartphones with a wide-angle lens also allow group selfies to be taken.
Provide an interesting background: Avoid boring backgrounds and find something attractive to complement your selfie. Maybe it's a picturesque landscape, an urban environment or an interesting shelf in a store. Experiment with different locations and angles to make your selfie unique.

Take advantage of portrait mode: Modern smartphones offer an advanced portrait mode. With it, you can simulate shooting in a studio, blur the background, choose different exposures and use the beauty mode to smooth the photo.

Phones have a great editor built in, and you can find additional ones in the AppGallery. With them you can add filters, adjust light, contrast, sharpness and remove unwanted elements.
Control the light
Light is the core of photography, without it there would be no photography. You can therefore control focus and light in the same way as you do when taking pictures with the rear cameras.
1. Touch the screen on the point in the scene that is the center of your composition and you want it to be sharp. Then use the on-screen slider to change the lighting of the scene.
2. You can also adjust the exposure by holding your finger on the focus point and then moving the sun icon around the scene.
