EDITING APPS FOR MOBILE PHOTOGRAPHY

 

1. Snapseed

Google-owned Snapseed offers a wide range of exposure and color tools to make tweaks to your images, but also has plenty of filter options, from vintage styles to modern, punchy HDR looks. You can layer the effects up to create some interesting edits on your image. And best of all, it's totally free.

2. Lightroom 

iOS and Android, some functions available for free, or $4.99 per month for full access.

Adobe Lightroom remains an industry standard for professional photographers and the mobile version is much the same. You'll find no stickers, animations or emoji here, but you will get fine grain control over your image and the same set of tools you'd find in Lightroom on desktop. It's the app I use the most to edit my own images on my iPhone and iPad, not least because the images sync in the cloud, letting me start on one device, and continue on another.

3. Adobe Photoshop Express

Free on iOS and Android.

Photoshop Express has many of the same features you'd find in Lightroom, including exposure, contrast and color editing options, but strips out some of the pro tools and cloud syncing and, crucially, ditches the subscription fee. It's a great tool for tweaking your images to bring out their best, but you'll also find a decent selection of filters and overlay textures, as well as tools for making cool collages from your images.

It's not as open to wild creativity as other options on this list, but it's a solid editing app at a price that's hard to argue with.

4. Prisma 

iOS and Android, $7.99 a month or $30 a year.

Prisma doesn't deal with subtle filters and basic image corrections. Instead, its trippy filters will transform your images into often bizarre artistic creations. The results have a painterly effect and indeed many filters are inspired by artists such as Salvador Dali and Picasso. The filters are strong, and while you can tweak them, not every filter will work with every image. I found some to be more suited to portraits while other filters worked best with landscapes.

But it's great fun to experiment with and when you find a photo that works, it really works.

SELECT BEST LOCATION FOR PHOTOSHOOT

  How to Choose The Right Photo Shoot Location Finding the right setting for a photo shoot can be a challenging task. We reveal how thousands of location properties can be narrowed down to a choice of just one – and how they make sure it’s the perfect photo shoot location for you. Finding the Right Photo Shoot Location Educated decision-making is what really sets a location agency apart, and is key to finding the right location for a client. This is why we ask very specific questions when a photographer first makes an enquiry: it means they are not held up too long with us, and we can quickly get the essential information that allows us to find a great match. Equally, if we know exactly what the photographer is looking for ““ type of location, number of shots needed, general look and feel ““ it enables us to be truthful to our location owners, since we would not ask them to take on the work without first being absolutely sure what a photographer needs. We work w

HOW TO GIVE GOOD POSE IN PHOTOS

How to Pose for Photos: A Guide For New Photography Learning three manual exposure settings seems simple compared to memorizing the placement of chins, shoulders, hands, elbows, hips, knees and feet required to create a flattering portrait. Posing can be downright scary for new photographers, but without it, a technically perfect photo falls flat in an unflattering rendition. But, all those posing “rules” boil down to a set of basic ideas that can help any photographer create a flattering pose without imitating another photographer’s work. Use these four basics — and a quick checklist — to master how to pose for photos. What is the closest to the camera always appears the largest. By keeping the elbows out to the side instead of in front, the arms appear smaller. Photo by Hillary K. Grigonis The placement of objects inside a flat photograph gives our brains three-dimensional clues. Placed incorrectly, our brains will automatically assume tha

BEST CAMERA LENS

BEST CAMERA LENS Types of Camera Lens There are dozens of different types of lens available, designed for use in a wide range of circumstances. However, they can largely be grouped as follows: Standard Lenses A standard lens is one with a mid-range focal length, typically around 50mm. They have an angle of view which is roughly the same as the angle that the human eye can comfortably view, meaning that they produce images which appear "natural" to the viewer. Standard camera lenses usually have a fixed focal length and wide aperture, giving them excellent performance in low light. They are popular for a wide range of photography subjects, including landscapes, portraits, and candid shots. Macro Lenses A macro lens is one designed especially for close-up photography. They have a different internal construction from normal lenses which gives them very good sharpness and contrast, meaning that they produce some really eye-catching
