Photography treatment Photography Photography guidelines The image, whenever possible, should tell a story. Use these key words to guide you: Positive. Real. Just like how life should be. The subject should never be overwhelmed by the background. Ensure no visual clutter. Mantain a sense of balance to the overall composition.
Photography treatment Photography Photography notes The general rule is avoid dark, saturated, moody pictures. Moody is a feeling not a tone as demonstrated here. The visual on the right has a dark background but the subject is cheerful.
