Being able to pre-visualize the photo in your mind is the key skill aspect of photography. That skill can absolutely be learned so you can look and anticipate an interesting photo before you shoot it. Often that requires you to move around a bit and see what the camera can “see”. The latter is why phone cameras are so amazing compared to, say a DSLR which shows you what your eye can see (which is quite different). The former requires training your mind to see objects differently. You can do this through deliberate practice, e.g., shoot round things for the next month and look back to see how you are improving. Good luck!
