Participants in my workshops often ask me how I consistently manage to create pictures with spot-on compositions. The answer is simple: spend more time looking for the picture and less time taking it. Above all, use a Composition Finder Card to help you find it.
I have become so accustomed to these cards that I never leave home without them. They are the tools that truly guide me in discovering the right composition. In fact, they are the first thing I pull out of my camera bag. The gear for taking the actual photo always comes out last—and only if and when I have found the perfect composition.
I used to make my own cards from various materials, including frame mounting paper, cardboard, and even plywood. However, I often had to replace them because they would get damaged, wet, or break over time. It became clear that I needed a more durable solution.
After extensive research, I discovered a material that was robust, flexible, waterproof, and incredibly lightweight: polypropylene. The cards are laser-cut with smooth, rounded edges and feature the standard 3:2 ratio found in most camera sensors today.
The outer dimensions are 125x100mm, making them perfect for standing upright in your camera bag without taking up much space. They are also safe and secure during transport. Each card is printed with the Inspiring Photography logo, adding a touch of professionalism to this essential tool.
