You can still use a wide angle lens but I prefer the 50 mm when possible.

With all the photos you’ll see in the post, I’ve used my 50 mm prime lens ( HERE). But, don’t count on this to be a comprehensive camera tutorial – there are a ton of resources out there that will get you fixed right up 😉

In this post, you’ll see I don’t use a lot of technical terminology – I know the result I’m looking for and generally, what settings to move up or down to help get me there. I rely on using Lightroom for editing but I haven’t come across a program/app in the world that will magically fix everything if the original photo isn’t taken somewhat properly. I’ve literally Googled my way around my basic little Nikon D3200 since getting it three years ago - I’m always learning, adjusting, and trying to figure out ways to better do things. I use the same camera I’ve had since around when I started the blog and everything I know about photography is self taught. But, if you have similar, basic camera equipment to what I have, it’s not difficult to catch on once you start practicing. So, I can’t speak to whether there’s a way to achieve similar photo results in that way. The bad news – no, I don’t use an app and I don’t use an iPhone. From blurred bokeh backgrounds to super sharp tree images that look like the lights are sparkling, I’ve been asked about tips, settings, and if there’s an app I use. Over the past couple of years, I’ve received a lot of questions about how I take pictures of Christmas tree lights.
