Creative Uses Of Narrow Depth Of Field: Images By SDE Customers

A collage of two images showing creative uses of narrow depth of field by ShootDotEdit customers

If you are playing with sharp or blur effects of your images, you are probably experimenting with depth of field – a photography technique that can be defined as the nearest and the farthest areas in focus of your camera lens while taking an image. A deep depth of field might help you create images with a sharp and clear background, giving the viewer a sense of the depth and distance other objects in the image have from the subject. However, if your images have a blurry effect, with only the subject or a portion of the image in focus, then it is most likely the doing of a shallow or narrow depth of field. And many photographers are hugely drawn to the charm that blurry backdrops lend to an image. From giving your images a dreamy look to enhancing your visual style, there are many creative uses of narrow depth of field. If you too want to use this photography style to create some stellar shots and are looking for inspiration, we’ve shared some lovely images created by some of our ShootDotEdit customers.
