Taking truly stunning photographs used to mean you had to buy an expensive top of the line camera and carry around a bunch of equally expensive, cumbersome equipment. Fortunately, recent years have seen a dramatic rise in the quality of cell phone cameras which means you can take professional looking photos without the added expense or baggage.
All you need to get started is your cell phone and maybe a few portable tools and you’re set. If you aren’t quite convinced to check out these award-winning and shortlisted photos from the last three years of the Mobile Photography Awards. Maybe you’ll find enough inspiration to submit your own entries!
