We’re the team that helps creators get hotter, smarter, and booked. And we’re here to share our straightforward tips for getting your spicy page off the ground without spending a fortune.
Guess what? The most powerful tool for your business is probably already in your hand. That’s right, we’re talking about your smartphone. It’s more than enough to get you started. Seriously, don’t feel pressured to invest in a “professional” camera thinking it’s the key to more income. We’ve seen creators make six figures a year with nothing but a phone and smart strategy.
Instead of stressing about the camera, let’s focus on the secrets to making your content pop: lighting and stability.
Forget the camera. Good lighting is the secret. It’s what separates a quick snap from a work of art.
You already know that natural light is your best friend. Shooting during the day, near a window, always gets you the most flattering results. But here’s a cheeky trick for a soft, alluring vibe: drape a colored bedsheet over the window to diffuse the light. Instant mood.
For those cloudy days or late nights, a little artificial help is your savior. Ring lights are inexpensive and not too bulky, making them a fantastic starting point. A simple selfie ring light that clips onto your phone is a great place to start. A pro tip from us: position the light slightly above you. This generally creates a softer, more flattering look that highlights all your best features. Trust us, no one wants monster movie lighting.
We know the struggle: propping your phone on a book or against a water bottle. It works, but your content deserves better.
A cheap tripod with a Bluetooth remote is an absolute game-changer. You can find these online for next to nothing, and it allows for steady, professional shots and the freedom to operate hands-free.
A flexible phone holder is your other secret weapon. You can attach it to a table, your headboard, or anything else to give you the freedom to move and hit those killer poses. For those more creative, acrobatic shots, some creators even temporarily mount their phones to the ceiling!
Before you go all in, check out second-hand websites or budget-friendly online marketplaces. We’re all about being smart with your money. Don’t spend big until you’re ready.
