Tips for good photography

-          Lighting is key. Natural lighting is best.

-          You will want to properly center your subject depending on the look you’re going for. Sometimes an off centered focus will enhance your image, while others, you will want your subject to be directly in the middle of the frame. (the rule of thirds) “To use the rule of thirds, imagine four lines, two lying horizontally across the image and two vertical creating nine even squares. Some images will look best with the focal point in the center square, but placing the subject off-center at one of the intersecting points of the imaginary lines will often create a more aesthetically composed photograph.” - https://www.exposureguide.com/top-10-digital-photography-tips/
