Try turning your phone to take pictures. Only a very small percentage of portrait-mode photos can be cropped to the calendar format.

Do the pictures have to be a 3:2 ratio? If not, what ratios are aceptable?

Great question. Try not to overthink it, any ratio is fine.

Examples from last year:

16:9 by @Isadora

Just an iPhone. Ok thanks!

What model? Most iPhone cameras are at least 12MP (4000 x 3000).

My camera is a Nikon D3500 DSLR. There is a chance one of the pictures will be from my Canon, but I’m pretty sure they will all be Nikon. So that means that picture is one of my 4?

That's an awesome camera. I think it's 24MP. You should be able to take pictures that are 6000 x 4000 pixels.

Yes, I love it! Unless they are cropped or I use the one I asked about earlier, they will probably all be 6000x4000.

It’s the iPhone 13.
