How To Capture A Live Photo On iPhone<\/h2>\n<p>It easy to shoot a Live Photo with your iPhone!<\/p>\n<p>Simply open the built-in <a href=\"https:\/\/iphonephotographyschool.com\/iphone-camera\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">iPhone Camera app<\/a>, and select <strong>Photo<\/strong> mode at the bottom of the screen.<\/p>\n<p>The <strong>Live Photos<\/strong> icon (three circles) is at the top right of the screen. If it <em>doesn&#8217;t<\/em> have a line through it, Live Photos is switched on. If the icon has a line through it, tap it to turn on Live Photos.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/26681\/1120\/Live-Photos.jpg\" alt=\"Live Photos\" width=\"320\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<p>A Live Photo captures 3 seconds of movement and sound. 1.5 seconds of the Live Photo is captured before you press the shutter button, and 1.5 seconds is captured after.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, ensure you compose your shot and hold it there for a couple of seconds before you press the shutter. If you don&#8217;t do this, the first part of your Live Photo will be of you moving the camera to frame the shot.<\/p>\n<p>Likewise, your iPhone will record for 1.5 seconds after you&#8217;ve pressed the shutter. So make sure you keep your phone still for a couple of seconds after taking the shot.<\/p>\n<p>Also, be aware that Live Photos capture audio as well as video. So you&#8217;ll hear any sound in your Live Photo when you play it back.<\/p>\n<p>Below is a 3-second Live Photo of people on the beach. Hit the Play button to view it:<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/XsYfjYYCyX4?rel=0&amp;showinfo=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"420\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re taking an action shot of a person, you might need to tell your subject to move when you take the photo.<\/p>\n<p>Do this at least a couple of seconds before you press the shutter so that you don&#8217;t capture your voice in the Live Photo.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/VJl2psDEdmM?rel=0&amp;showinfo=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"420\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>When you no longer want to shoot Live Photos, tap the <strong>Live Photos<\/strong> icon at the top of the Camera app to switch it off.<\/p>\n<p>Live Photos take up a lot of storage space on your iPhone. So if you leave it on for every shot, you may find that your phone quickly becomes full.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"Play Live Photo\">2. How To Play A Live Photo<\/h2>\n<p>After taking a Live Photo, it appears in the Photos app alongside your ordinary still images. You&#8217;ll also find it in a <a href=\"http:\/\/iphonephotographyschool.com\/iphone-photo-albums\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">separate album<\/a> titled <strong>Live Photos<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, in thumbnail view, there&#8217;s no way of knowing whether an image is a Live Photo.<\/p>\n<p>In the screenshot below, there are several Live Photos amongst these images. But it&#8217;s impossible to tell which ones they are when viewing them like this.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/23358\/1120\/Live-Photos.jpg\" alt=\"Live Photos\" width=\"320\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<p>So how do you know which of your images are Live Photos?<\/p>\n<p>Tap on the image thumbnail so it opens in full screen.

How To Add Live Photo Effects<\/h2>\n<p>There are three special effects that you can apply to your Live Photos: <strong>Loop<\/strong>, <strong>Bounce<\/strong>, and <strong>Long Exposure<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>To apply a Live Photo effect, go to the <strong>Photos<\/strong> app and open a Live Photo. Next, swipe up to reveal the <strong>Effects<\/strong> section:<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/23359\/1120\/Live-Photos.jpg\" alt=\"Live Photos\" width=\"320\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Tap the effect you want to use (<strong>Loop<\/strong>, <strong>Bounce<\/strong>, or <strong>Long Exposure<\/strong>). The effect will apply to your Live Photo immediately.<\/p>\n<p>You can change your mind at any time by tapping on a different effect. Or select <strong>Live<\/strong> to return to the original Live version with no effect applied.<\/p>\n<p>Below you&#8217;ll discover what the three effects look like. But first, here&#8217;s our starting point &#8211; a basic Live Photo video with no effect applied:<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Ttxx08KXO9o?rel=0&amp;showinfo=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"420\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3>4.1 Loop<\/h3>\n<p>The <strong>Loop<\/strong> effect turns your Live Photo into a continuous video loop. Once the video ends, it starts playing from the beginning again, until you stop it.<\/p>\n<p>This works best where the subject is doing something in roughly the same area of the scene. For example, someone skipping, juggling, or dancing.<\/p>\n<p>It can also work well if your subject enters and exits the scene during the original 3-second Live Photo. For example, someone getting out of a vehicle and leaving the scene. The end result could look like hundreds of people leaving the vehicle!<\/p>\n<p>Below we&#8217;ve turned the waterfall Live Photo into a loop:<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Xb1JQ3pKa2Q?rel=0&amp;showinfo=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"420\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3>4.2 Bounce<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Bounce<\/strong> is a fun effect that makes your Live Photo play as normal, and then in reverse. It repeats this until you stop the video.<\/p>\n<p>The Bounce effect makes the waterfall below look rather unnatural. But it&#8217;s definitely interesting!<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/w5oC15MefcY?rel=0&amp;showinfo=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"420\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3>4.3 Long Exposure<\/h3>\n<p>The <strong>Long Exposure<\/strong> option creates a photo with a long exposure (slow shutter) effect.<\/p>\n<p>Long exposure is most suited to scenes that include movement as it blurs the motion. Flowing water, firework,s or a moving car&#8217;s lights look great with a long exposure effect.<\/p>\n<p>If you think you&#8217;ll want to create a long exposure from your Live Photo, it&#8217;s best to use an <a href=\"https:\/\/iphonephotographyschool.com\/iphone-tripod\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">iPhone tripod<\/a>. This ensures that the stationary parts of the scene remain sharp in the final image.<\/p>\n<p>The waterfall Live Photo below has had the Long Exposure effect applied. Notice the soft blur of the moving water, while the stationary objects such as the rocks appear sharp:<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/23366\/1120\/Live-Photos.jpg\" alt=\"Live Photos\" width=\"560\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"Share Live Photos\">5. How To Share Live Photos<\/h2>\n<p>Once you&#8217;ve shot some great Live Photos on iPhone, you might want to share these moments with family and friends.<\/p>\n<p>You can share Live Photos to another iPhone or iPad as long as it&#8217;s running iOS 9 or later. You can use iMessage, AirDrop, or <a href=\"https:\/\/iphonephotographyschool.com\/icloud-photo-sharing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">iCloud Photo Sharing<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>To share a Live Photo, open it in the Photos app, then tap the <strong>Share<\/strong> icon.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/26700\/1120\/Live-Photos.jpg\" alt=\"Live Photos\" width=\"320\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Next, select the sharing option that you want to use, e.g. Messages, Airdrop, etc.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/26701\/1120\/Live-Photos.jpg\" alt=\"Live Photos\" width=\"320\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Note that you can&#8217;t email a Live Photo. If you email it, the attachment will send as a still JPEG image.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"Facebook Instagram\">6. How To Upload Live\u00a0Photos To\u00a0Facebook &amp; Instagram<\/h2>\n<p>As well as sharing your Live Photos to other iPhones and iPads, you might want to share them on social media.<\/p>\n<p>Facebook and Tumblr already allow you to share Live Pictures. More social media platforms are likely to support Live Photos at some point too.<\/p>\n<p>If you want to share a Live Photo on Facebook, you can&#8217;t use the Facebook sharing option in the Photos app. Instead, you need to upload the photo from within your Facebook app.<\/p>\n<p>From there, you can choose whether you want to share it as a Live Photo or a still image. Use the <strong>Live<\/strong> icon at the top of the photo to switch it on or off:<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/23360\/1120\/Live-Photos.jpg\" alt=\"Live Photos\" width=\"320\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/iphonephotographyschool.com\/instagram\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Instagram<\/a> doesn&#8217;t yet support the use of Live Photos. But you can use a third-party app such as <a href=\"https:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/us\/app\/lively-export-live-photo-to\/id1049711205?mt=8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Lively<\/a>\u00a0(free to download from App Store) to <a href=\"https:\/\/iphonephotographyschool.com\/live-photo-to-video\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">convert a Live Photo to video<\/a>. You can then upload the video to Instagram.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s how to save a Live Photo as video:<\/p>\n<p>Open the Live Photo in the <strong>Lively<\/strong> app, then select <strong>Movie<\/strong> at the top of the screen. Tap <strong>Export Movie<\/strong>, then tap the <strong>Save<\/strong> icon. This saves the Live Photo as an ordinary video file in your photo library:<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/23365\/1120\/Live-Photos.jpg\" alt=\"Live Photos\" width=\"560\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<p>You can then open the <strong>Instagram<\/strong> app and upload the video from your library.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/23356\/1120\/Live-Photos.jpg\" alt=\"Live Photos\" width=\"560\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Before posting to Instagram, you can use the filters and editing tools to enhance your Live Photo.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"When To Use Live Photos\">7. When To Use iPhone Live Photos For The Best Results<\/h2>\n<p>A Live Photo offers so much more than an ordinary still image.<\/p>\n<p>The iPhone Live Photo feature is perfect for capturing <a href=\"http:\/\/iphonephotographyschool.com\/moving-subjects\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">any scene with\u00a0moving subjects<\/a> or interesting sounds.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/drfhZv_dzYU?rel=0&amp;showinfo=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"420\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>A Live Photo will capture all those extra little details that you can&#8217;t convey in a still image.<\/p>\n<p>Crashing waves, a river or waterfall, trees swaying in the wind, or a busy street scene all make great Live Pictures.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s also fantastic for scenes where the sound would add an extra sensory element to the image. For example, birdsong or the sound of water when\u00a0you&#8217;re <a href=\"http:\/\/iphonephotographyschool.com\/nature\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">shooting out in nature<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/V_A3Xt82Z3I?rel=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"420\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Live Photos also works well when <a href=\"https:\/\/iphonephotographyschool.com\/people\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">photographing people<\/a> &#8211; especially <a href=\"https:\/\/iphonephotographyschool.com\/children-photography\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">children<\/a>.

I live in the beautiful countryside of Mid Wales UK where I also teach digital photography and image editing. I\u2019ve used a DSLR for many years, but now my default camera is the iPhone and I use it every single day. In 2014 I started a Photo 365 project which taught me to notice the beauty in everything around me and how to capture that in a unique way through photography. Through this, I discovered that you can take amazing photos of just about anything with the iPhone!","url":"https:\/\/iphonephotographyschool.com\/author\/kate\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/iphonephotographyschool.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/44031","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/iphonephotographyschool.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/iphonephotographyschool.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iphonephotographyschool.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/20"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iphonephotographyschool.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=44031"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/iphonephotographyschool.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/44031\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/iphonephotographyschool.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=44031"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iphonephotographyschool.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=44031"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iphonephotographyschool.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=44031"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
