Always be aware of your background! In this video we at DIY Senior Picture Labs will show you how to get a blurry background with a point and shoot camera. The key is to put as much distance between your subject and you background as possible. This will allow the background to fall out of focus. Also, be sure to zoom your camera in as much as possible to heighten the affect.
We have a kindle book that walks you through the DIY Senior Picture process. Please click the link below to check it out.
