A macro lens can set you back 700 dollars! Which is totally worth it, if you do weddings or babies. But what if you just want to take pictures of flowers? You can do that using a basic 50mm or 35mm.

Find good lighting! Back lighting works best!

Four: shoot in CH or burst mode so that you can get the details you want up close!
5. Practice, Practice!
