Many people that take a lot of photos, end up always looking for more ways to improve their technique and capture better shots. It can be a never-ending quest, but you can still get a lot of great pictures during the journey. This article contains a few ideas that will, hopefully, help you on that quest.
Pay attention to your light. The lighting in a photograph can bring a subject into better focus or change the mood of the picture. Different lighting setups will result in very different photographs. Avoid harsh direct lighting on your subject's face, as this will generally cause them to squint.
A great photography tip that can help you out is to learn as much as you can about your camera. Try to learn all of its functions so that you can easily select them on the fly. You don't want to miss an opportunity by fiddling with your camera.

Use a tripod for maximum camera stability. For random shots of your kids or buildings, a bit of camera shake isn't a big deal, but for once-in-a-lifetime shots that really matter, a bit of camera shake can ruin a perfect memory. If a tripod is not available, try setting the camera on a flat surface.
Change the direction of your camera's flash to avoid the appearance of red eye. When a flash goes off directly in line with someone's eyes, the result can be red eye. Reducing red eye will improve the quality of your pictures and give your subjects a more realistic appearance.
Make sure that before you start getting into taking pictures regularly that you totally understand how your camera works and what it is and is not capable of doing. Photography is all about timing and if you are fiddling with your camera from a lack of understanding how it works, you can miss a lot of photo opportunities.
When aiming for the perfect shot, remember to keep sunlight in mind. Too little and you can't see the subject. Too much and one of two things happen. The first is that too much sunlight is directed into the camera's lens or on the subject and washes out the picture. The second is the person being photographed has to blink or close his eyes because of the massive amounts of sunlight coming into his eyes.
