Learn how to ‘Take Great Rose Photos with Your Phone’

Rose photographer and exhibitor Jacqui Nye grows lots of other flowers in her Rhode Island garden, too, but roses are her favorite to shoot and share.

She’s not alone; roses are the No. 1 flower on Instagram. By a recent count, more than 80 million Instagram posts feature rose photos, along with the hashtag #rose or #roses. (A distant second are sunflowers at 15.5 million.)

Smartphone and iphones make capturing roses anytime, anywhere a snap. But some simple rules of composition can make a huge difference in results. As Nye says, “you can turn a snapshot into a wow shot.”

Nye recently gave this photo presentation in Sacramento during the American Rose Society’s district conference. Her talk was filled with easy tips for even beginning photographers.

At 11 a.m. Saturday, March 9, Nye will expand on that workshop for an online audience. Part of a series of ARS webinars, this presentation will be two hours, twice as long as her Sacramento talk.

Registration is free and open to anyone, not just ARS members. And Nye’s advice applies to all flowers, not just roses.
