Do you remember your first photo taken
with a camera, when you only had one chance to make it right and could
never predict the printed result which often ended up with red eyes,
awkward face or messy hair? Or your first selfie with a phone of such
awful quality you could barely spot the features? Now look at your
Instagram feed - we‘ve come so far! And I am not just talking about
technology, we have so much inspiration around us – it‘s overwhelming.
Photography is no longer for preserving memories as it used to be, it‘s
about making the memories while taking the pictures, sharing,
popularity, art... you name it.
Social
media is packed with amazing cinematic photos, and although sometimes
there is a team of professional photographers, make-up artists and
stylists behind those images, there is another side to the story. Many
photographers invite us to the behind the scenes of their perfect shots
proving that it’s achievable to most of us with very minimal resources
and even in the most unexpected locations as we’ve previously shared on Bored Panda
In
the constant battle for attention and hunting for ‘likes’ on social
media, is it smart to reveal what makes your photos so flawless, you
ask? Well, it definitely works for a Mexican photographer Omah, who has
gained over 100k followers eager to find out how to step up their
Instagram game. Even though he is a professional photographer, the truth
he reveals with his photos is utterly motivating – it’s possible to
capture a stunning Instagram-worthy shot with lots of creativity and a
little bit of Photoshop magic. No one has to know that your eye-catching
picture was taken in the public bathroom, a parking lot outside your
office or, a true classic, in front of a screen – and this is what
actually makes it impressive.

can’t fully trust what you see on the Internet, take a look at this
