Today we’re talking about something really important for storytelling Composition But first, thanks for the 100K And thanks to Squarespace for sponsoring this channel Whether you need a domain, website, or online store Make your next move with Squarespace Composition in our opinion is one of the most important tools you can use to convey your story in a photo It helps tell your viewer where his or her eyes should go Let’s get started with some tips You’ve probably heard of the rule of thirds But if you haven’t, here’s what it is Rule of thirds asks to you place your subject in any of these four interesctions or as they’re better known the thirds composition also calls for head room which is space over your subjects head And looking room which is more space between your subjects face and the frame that they are facing than the amount of space behind his or her head It asks you to refrain from cutting your subject at the joints and a few other things that we will get to shortly But we want that these rules exist for a reason They give photos balance and help your viewers easily know what is important in the photo However, wa also want you to know that you are totally allowed to break these rules Breaking rules of composition can create added interest and tension in the photo Breaking the rules well, can draw your viewers into a photo in a way that standard rules of composition just can’t do There are a few tools that you can use to add to the composition of your photo Framing is a great way to box in your subject And, or add interest to an otherwise boring setting Leading lines help viewers unconsciously follow them to your subject So make sure the lines in your photo are working for you and not against you Light can also highlight your subject so if your frame should have a stream of light in one spot Putting your subject in that light can highlight it Both literally and figuratively There are a lot a choices you have to make When composing a shot, perspective is one of them Shooting straight on at you subject, and shooting straight up at him or her can create a drastically different story and feeling Recap Know the rules of composition and know that you can break them Framing, leading lines and lighting Perspective So we’ve been using Squarespace for quite a few years now Across three of our websites They have award winning design templates Award winning 24/7 customer service And it’s all-in-one platform so there nothing to install or upgrade, ever To get 10% off your first purchase Go to squarespace.com/mangostreet And enter the code mangostreet at checkout As always thank you so much for watching Subscribe if you haven’t already And we will see you next week

On photo composition. #poetsofyoutube
I freaking love this channel
I needed this channel so much in my life ✨❤️❤️❤️✨
Mmmm, bananas!
I was one of the first 2,000 subscribers.. you guys have done really well in a short amount of time. congrats!
How do you guys dress for wedding shoots!? I don't want to dress too casually but I'm not sure what to wear. Anyone have any advice?
Another great video and congratulations on 100k!!! I'm gonna miss it when you guys when you'll no longer be able to read all of our comments
your videos are all so perfect i love every single one of them so much
this must be the shortest vid on composition on the internet till date ,thanks mate
I'm a very solid fan of you guys! All your videos it really help me to improve my skills
more shorter video more like it
Can you do a vid on lighting?
The Chicago Bulls jersey was distracting! Hahah thought about Jordan and Rodman the whole time watching this
Was that Dan Campbell at 2:11? Officially my favorite channel
Very helpful and amazing video as always! Also; would you consider making a video about how to pose boys/men who aren't models? The video you did about posing friends was more fixated on girls. That would be very much appreciated since I am just getting started with photography 🙂
This is such a lovely channel!! I have a question; I am using wix.com at the moment for my photo site, should I switch to square space? Is it worth it? Please also check out my Instagram @briephoto !!! (I'm trying to create a name for myself in my small town please help!!)
stunning
Great tipps! Short but precise. Thank you for the 10% off!
You guys are amazing! Lovin' the vibe and aesthetics you guys produce! All your videos and photos are inspiring!
can someone explain what's up with that reference to mr robot all the time?
i remember stumble upon few of your videos.i remember them to be short yet compact, full of good things but i hadnt bothered to subscribe because i dont really interested in photography. and when the curios side of me showed up, i try to amend my mistakes by subscribing now. i watched variety of camera related channels and i find yours is one of the best. i really like how you guys explain things and especially the recap session. i'm glad you guys still uploading and creating great contents. but if i may put a suggestion, please position the camera in the eye level and use tighter fov while sitting since i feel that you guys are not really comfortable giving an intro while standing. but i maybe wrong and it maybe your artistic choice which is really fine. i can only hope for the best for you guys and would love to see guys have silver, gold, diamond or even ruby play button!
That tree with red flowers… 1:41
What camera do you use to shoot these videos?
again, so much great stuff in an under 3 minute video. What is the location of the shot at the 0:25 mark?
I love your videos! Do you have any tips for self portraits?

Thanks for your videos. Please talk about how to pose big group of people.
From 6 to 20. Including different sets of families (adults and kids)
Thank you
These videos are such great refreshers! They're so bitesize that I can watch them real quick before an editing/photo session to "get my head in the game", as they say. Kudos to you guys for creating such great content!
What template are you guys using on squarespace ?
Your Videos are extremly inspiring to me. I just feel like going out and shoot some photos!😊🤘📸
you should also review the basics, for example how to hold a camera…
Where did she get the sunglasses? I can't find those type of sunglasses anywhere and I really
like those types 😂
love the content but your video is running quite fast! wish you could slow down the scenes a bit.
Wow your tutorials a bite size. I am glad i came across your channel. Great work
I'm not a photographer, I'm an artist but these tips helped me so much for improving my composition in my paintings
"Mmm..Mr.Robot with those quadrants."
*Stifles laughter*
Thanks for the refresher; I realized though, I learned all this in my photography class in HS👍
hey, what kind of lens u use
Soupy from TWY at 2:10! I see you, Daniel! Love the videos guys, keep em coming. <3
I love mr robot I'm glad they went there
Thank you for this
I love how the first photo example blatantly wasn't in the rule of thirds though, her face was in a whole different section 😂
Love your videos!!
subscribed done.
those tips were basics and very useful! Thank you! It was more useful than most of my photography classes in university.

These are things I already know but easily take for granted. I keep forgetting how much they can transform a simple photo into something W O W. thanks for this! ✨

I should send this to ppl who take my pics
I have no pretty things at home. What do I shoot?
