I don’t know if you’ve heard but the Indie Sleaze aesthetic is back. Post-lockdown we’re no longer going on long morning walks or spending weekends baking bloody sourdough. No, sir. We’re out on the town, taking pics in bars, wearing the Doc Martens of our teen years, and making the damn most of what the night presents to us. While I’m all for this Indie Sleaze renaissance, there’s one downfall. I have no idea how to take aesthetic pictures at night. My friends usually grumble at me as I try to find the flash button on my phone and the pics end up being more deletable than Pinterest-worthy. C’mon, the last time Indie Sleaze was a thing everyone was bringing digital cameras to the club and posting whole 100-pic albums on Facebook (RIP).
However, I’m nothing if not a trier. That’s why I road-tested the new Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra. It uses the latest technology in you-beaut night photography like Night Mode and adaptive pixel tech, so here’s how it went. Samsung

The Third Shot: Zoom And Shoot
(there’s even a 100x Super Zoom for snapping that pic of your friend from across the d-floor) Shout out to Samsung’s biggest camera pixel sensor to date that helped me secure that crisp and detailed shot in the dark, first go. The FLARES though.Night shot or professional advertising pic? You decide.And another bridge shot for good measure.Annie Leibovitz
