Systems and methods for capturing one or more images include a smart capture mode for detecting one or more reflective objects in an image to be captured by a device, and determining whether a display provided in the device will cause a disturbance when the image is captured, the disturbance based on one or more reflections of the display on the one or more reflective objects. A brightness of the display is adjusted prior to capturing the image based on determining that the display will cause the disturbance, where adjusting the brightness of the display reduces the disturbance in the image when the image is captured. The brightness of the display can be adjusted by dimming or turning off the display. The display can be returned to a previous state upon capturing the image, the previous state being prior to the brightness of the display being adjusted.
