Here are three tips specifically for capturing fall photos and videos on your phone
Tap and hold on your subject to lock focus and exposure.
Keeps your shot sharp and prevents the light from shifting as you move.
Perfect for bright leaves against darker forests or skies.
HDR brings out detail in both shadows and bright skiesāgreat for sunny fall days.
Pro Mode (if your phone has it) lets you adjust white balance and exposure for more natural, vibrant colors.
Walk heel-to-toe for steady clips, or brace your elbows against your body.
Slow, sweeping movements look cinematicāthink panning across a lake or up a waterfall.
Bonus: Use a small gimbal or even just a stick or hiking pole to stabilize your phone.
