The rule of thirds is a compositional guideline that breaks an image down into thirds (both horizontally and vertically) so you have nine pieces and four gridlines. According to the rule, by positioning key elements along the gridlines, you’ll end up with better compositions.
La regla de los tercios es una pauta de composición que divide una imagen en tercios (tanto horizontal como verticalmente) para que tengas nueve piezas y cuatro líneas de cuadrícula. Según la regla, al colocar elementos clave a lo largo de las líneas de la cuadrícula, obtendrás mejores composiciones.
Rule of 3rds is more what you’d call “guidelines” than actual rules
What is Rule of Thirds?
When you break a photograph down into 3rds, so that you have 9 equal parts. Think of a tic, tac, toe board.

EXPOSURE COMPENSATION FOR STUDIO PORTRAITS
Step-by-step guide
Set the shooting mode: Ensure your camera is in a creative zone mode like Program (P), Shutter Priority (Tv), or Aperture Priority (Av). Some cameras may also allow this in their Flexible-Priority (Fv) mode.
Locate the compensation button/dial: Find the dedicated button or dial, usually marked with a +/- symbol, on the body of your camera.
Adjust the compensation:
Press and hold the exposure compensation button.
Turn a nearby dial (like the main dial or quick control dial) to increase or decrease the exposure compensation value.
Positive values (e.g., +1, +2) make the image brighter. Negative values (e.g., -1, -2) make it darker.
Adjustments are typically made in increments of 1/3 or 1/2 of a stop.
Take a test shot: Half-press the shutter button to see the effect on the exposure level indicator before you take the final photo.
Review and repeat: Take a test shot to see if the exposure is correct. If not, adjust the compensation again and take another picture. You can return the setting to 0 when you are finished to return to the camera's default exposure.
