My Pop Art brings a certain life to any photograph. But if you send in a lively and bold shot, then you get double the fun. What’s the secret to capturing a fun, vibrant shot that My Pop Art can really pump up?

First thing, bring that camera out with you as much as possible. That can’t be stressed enough. Great photographic moments occur anytime and anywhere, when you least expect it. It takes some practice to not only bring your camera out with you, but to use it. And it takes a certain amount of boldness to pull a camera out and start snapping. People tend to react. But the more you bring it out, the more people will drop their guard.

Next, be prepared to get in close. Great moments for My Pop Art means getting in there. Distant shots are good for certain occasions but if you want some bold shots, don’t be afraid to zoom in. When you get in close, you capture the strength and detail of facial expressions.

Also look for occasions that naturally elicit bold responses – parades, surprise parties, performances, etc. But even a seemingly calmer scene – like a day at the beach – can be loaded with moments or surprise and excitement. Life is dramatic naturally – you just need to have your camera in hand and ready to go.

Bold moments happen all sorts of times. Be prepared and don’t be afraid to get up close and take some big chances yourself.

Boldness begins with you!
