10 Rules


1. Rule of thirds- Imagine the photo chopped into 9 even pieces, make the subject of the photo where the lines intersect
2. Balancing Elements- balance the 'weight' of your photo with another element
3. Leading Lines- this kind of element gives you somewhat of a 'journey' in the photo
4. Symmetry and Patterns (repetition)- repeating a pattern
5. Viewpoint- use different perspectives to take the photo
6. Background- either a busy or calm one, control the background
7. Create depth- include objects in the front, middle, and background
8. Framing- use objects to isolate a subject
9. Cropping- get the viewer's attention by focusing on the small part 
10. Mergers and avoiding them- don't distract the viewer with other objects, isolate the subject
