And it only takes two taps.

Felipe Villegas shows us how it’s done.

It’s meant for the Portrait mode on your iPhone.

So make sure you’re set to that mode in the Camera app.

Now find the tiny f icon in the top right.

This controls the focal length of the lens on your device.

Tap it and a slider will appear below.

Slide it all the way down to the bottom so it’s at f 1.4.

Take the photo, ensuring the subject is perfectly centred.

And you should notice that the image has that glorious blur effect on the background.

It’s one of many useful tricks to step up your photography game on an iPhone.

Artsy black and white selfies

Want to make your self-portraits to look more like the headshots of a Hollywood star?

How about a moody black and white photo with dramatic lighting and shadow.

Open the iOS camera app and switch to the front-facing camera by hitting the circular arrow icon in the bottom right.

Swap over to Portrait mode by swiping left on your display. Portrait mode creates a depth-of-field effect by blurring the background of your photos.

Next, tap and drag across the effects options at the bottom of your viewfinder until you hit “Stage light mono”.

This creates a dramatic black and white photo with a black background.

Now, tap on yourself and then lower the brightness of your image by dragging down on the yellow sun icon that appears.

Selfies taken in this mode will give the desired effect. Your photos look better if you’re wearing darker clothing.
