My photography setup 

• Two lights - a top down and point light from the side.  Lots of light is needed for cameras to be able to have faster shutter speeds.  

• Light Blockers - These are needed to prevent your hands or camera from showing up in the reflection.  I use cut up school folders taped.  I block light from the top light and point light.

• Turn off the Room Lights - This again prevents reflections 

• A Camera you can Lock Focus - I use a phone camera that allows me to lock focus at a certain depth.  Having a newer phone that is fast helps. 

• Using Food or Mirrors - Use food or mirrors to engage your bettas into moving or staying still. 

• Patience - I take hundreds of photos for ever few that turn out nicely.  It can take me hours to wait for the perfect shot.
