While Snapseed now supports raw on Android, the Sony app doesn’t support raw file transfer through the Wi-Fi. There is even a basic dodge and burn function within the program that was great for adding local contrast to the bottle and glass as needed. This edit consisted of some tonal adjustments, clarity increase, healing for the dust, and sharpening. I used mostly Snapseed for the these images as it has some tools that proved to be helpful for this particular shoot. While recently shooting some product shots in my spare time, I found the real power of mobile editing apps. After having sold my Sony a7II, I forgot about mobile editing platforms because my Nikon doesn’t take advantage of Wi-Fi transmitting without a separate dongle. For images that weren’t going in my portfolio, it started to feel like a lot of effort. Until a few weeks ago, my day-to-day images from my Sony a6000 were still getting the same import to Capture One, edit, export, and email to myself in order to get it on Instagram. My current favorite, and in my opinion most capable, is Snapseed ( iOS | Android). From there, countless options are available to finish the image. This allows users to send images straight to their phones without ever touching a computer.
Apps like Snapseed, VSCO, and Lightroom Mobile have made it possible for aspiring artists, or even those in a hurry, to create incredible content with relative ease.Īlmost every major camera manufacturer has at least one model with built-in Wi-Fi functionality. Not only have mobile apps changed the shape of the industry, but they have changed the way that photographers can work. Today it is easier than ever to take advantage of this. Sites like Instagram, Twitter, and Tumblr are the perfect platforms for sharing not only your work, but also behind-the-scenes images and other content that draws interest towards your brand. I think the only thing that has changed photography more than the invention of digital cameras is the ever-growing involvement of photography and social media.
