Off-guard photography tips to capture natural portraits
The piece explains how unposed shots yield natural expressions by drawing the subject’s attention away from the camera. It suggests methods like engaging the subject in an activity, keeping the camera on a stable mount, and using a rapid shutter of 1/100 to 1/150 second to reduce camera awareness and obtain more relaxed images.
