iPhoneography: My 5 Favorite Photography Apps

I love my iPhone. And i’m not ashamed that the only thing that keeps me  from jumping hip to the Galaxy is the camera and the apps.

I’m always been of the opinion that less is more when it comes to editing your photos, but  I still love my apps.

So today of course, I will share my 5 favorite apps for iphoneography!

•  VSCOCAM. Without a doubt, my favorite editing app. I love the control I can get( see this post for details) when editing my photos with this app. And I like that it helps my iPhone photos look like the photos I take with my Canon 7D. Because i use a lot of VSCO presets( with tweaks) in Lightroom when I edit.
• Snapseed. I like to use snapseed when I need to do more than just add a filter. This app is like Photoshop on your phone. You can edit just specific parts of a photo with this one. Like in the photo below, when I took the photo, I couldn’t get both the sky and the ferris wheel properly exposed. But with the help of snapseed’s selective adjust tool, I got the photo just how i saw it! ( Bonus: you can get this one on Android phones too!)

• PicTapGo. It’s my favorite quick edit app. It’s simple to use and easy to adjust the various ‘filters” to get the photo you want. My favorite thing is that you can create recipes that you can save an apply to every photo. Thereby creating a cohesive look. AND it saves time.

• Squareready. Most photos you take with your phone do NOT come in the square format that instagram uses to post photos.  (Even though with the new IOS update, you can now take your photos in square format.  But I don’t like all of my photos to be in square format. So I cheat. With square ready.  It’s easy to get your photo cropped and ready to post to instagram without sacrificing any part of your photo.

And last but not least….

• Instagram.

The ultimate sharing zone. I like to think of it as another social media site. It’s twitter with photos.
Everyone is on Instagram. Are you following me????

These are my favorite iphoneorgraphy apps. What are yours?
