I love photography, and I love my smart phone. These seven tricks just made me fall even more in love.

Learn how to use the panorama sequence to put the same person in one photograph multiple times and to make some really cool 'pano-drive' shots as well. Coop Photography also teaches you how to zoom in with binoculars and use water to create a macro lens to magnify your tiny subjects.

Another awesome tool is the reflector, and the shiny car window shade works super well to add light in portraits. My favorite is the tripod and shutter cable. Coop Photography time-lapse shows you how to cut cardboard to hold your phone, and how to use your ear buds as a shutter release!

Finally, they teach you an easy underwater housing for the smart phone.

These clever techniques will amaze your friends and take your smart phone photography to the next level.
