We had a few extra minutes before meeting Jon after work a couple nights ago.
\nWe went for a drink run for a pick me up after some\u00a0angry man who was upset I didn’t turn left quick enough for his liking, wanted me to know I drive like a grandma.
\nRead about it: HERE!\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

So anyway, we spotted this huge orange wall.
\nThe kids threw rocks, we drank our dranks
\n+ I propped my hand ol’ iphone up
\ninside of my front purse pocket\u00a0to take a picture.
\nBecause I knew\/know I’ll look back on this day with a smile. . . . eventually.
\nI’ve found myself on a mission to spread more kindness!<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"\"\"
\nI released an e book, 15 keys to better instagram photos<\/a><\/strong><\/span>\u00a0a couple years ago,
\nBasically a play-by-play on how I edit phone photos beginning to end.
\nIt’s been a minute since I offered a discount code so why not now?
\nUSE CODE: payitforward<\/strong> for 20% off through the end of the week!
\nIf\u00a0you don’t have time or money or what-ev-ver \u00a0to sit down + read the nitty gritty details, hopefully a few of these simple steps will\u00a0shed light on what works for me.<\/p>\n

The Prop Up:\u00a0<\/strong>
\nIf I don’t have a little tripod with me, I use my diaper bag or purse to prop my phone up with. It’s not an ideal angle, but it works ya know? There is usually a little zipper pocket of some sort on each of my bags in the front that I can stand it inside of (leaving the camera hanging out the top) that will stabilize it just right. Press go\u00a0+ ruuuuuuun. You have 10 seconds to ruuuun\u00a0+ pose. Or not pose. That’s usually the route I take.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nDon’t push it:<\/strong>
\nYour\u00a0pose, not the button.
\nI took 3 self timer photos total. That left me with 30 pictures to work with \/ choose from in the end. I’m unsure about android, but on\u00a0my iphone,\u00a0all the self timer photos\u00a0I take trigger as a burst. It’s nice because it leaves you with lots of options, but can also be overwhelming in choosing which one you want to share. So I recommend putting your phone away + looking through them later. It makes it less tempting to try for a perfect shot. \ud83d\ude42 Whenever you get to it, save your favorites + delete the rest!
\n\"\"
\nLet your kids be the directors:
\n<\/strong>Enough said.\u00a0Let them call out the pose, or press the remote button if you have one with you! 90% of the time it will turn out different than you had in mind, but once you lower your expectations + wish for the best, that is exactly what you’ll see. You get what you get + you don’t throw a fit.<\/p>\n

Embrace\u00a0“YOUR”\u00a0real life:
\n<\/strong>Once you’ve lowered your expectations, the fun comes back! Make it a game. Stop comparing\u00a0your self timer shots to anyone else’s photos. If you can swap your perspective, you’ll\u00a0nail the shot\u00a0every single time!\u00a0I mean who’s to say the person you’re comparing to don’t have a professional photographer following them around all day every day anyways? \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

\nHope a few of these tips help! Let me know if you have any questions.
