Take Group Shots. The holidays are often the only time the entire family comes together. Make sure to capture the entire group. Some cameras feature a built-in wide angle lens that lets you capture everyone. Don’t forget to put yourself in the shot.
Work With Existing Light. Make simple adjustments to compensate for low-light situations. Avoid using flash. Some cameras feature a lowlight sensor that lets you take stunning shots by candle or holiday lights.
Be Prepared. Always have fresh batteries and an extra memory card ready to go.
Capture Unexpected Moments. This is what the holidays are all about. Capture all the smiles of wrapping gifts, putting up decorations or even setting the table. This is especially easy if your camera features smile detection technology.
Take Shots When Everybody’s Fresh. Don’t wait until the end of the evening. Take shots when people first arrive to capture the excitement of the holidays.
