5 Photo apps that every iPhone photographer should know about

Last Updated :

When you search for a photo app on the Apple app store, you'll probably find 1000s of them. All of those apps are just amazing. But selecting the one that offers more features and functions can be tricky. Going by their ratings and reviews, you can make out which one is better than the other. Here, we did it at our end and found following five apps that are just amazing. These photo apps are meant for photographers who take iPhone photography seriously. If you install them on your iPhone and start using, you can create a masterpiece. Here you go: Camera+ : Camera+ is an app for Apple's iOS mobile operating system developed by tap tap tap. Camera+ is loaded with advance editing tools like special effects and lighting filters. It offer some advance features like touch exposure & focus, various shooting modes, front flash , digital zoom, scene modes etc. The quality of the photos taken with the Camera+ app is much better that those taken with default camera app. The photo takes with the default app is usually around 3MB in size whereas the photo taken by Camera+ app is almost 6MB in size. ProHDR : HDR is a photography technique that combines multiple versions of the same photo into one image so that both the highlights and the shadows are properly exposed. The app is best for all types of landscape photography. The only downside of using this app is the time it takes to take a picture. At times it takes as long as 10 seconds to snap an HDR image. VSCO Cam : The Application can be used as a camera replacement app. The best part about VSCO cam are the unique photo editing tools it offer. Photo editing in VSCO Cam is mostly based around presets, but they look pretty amazing and are far better than the presets offered by other apps. Slow shutter Cam : Shutter speed is one of the most creative photography tools available to us. It is mostly used in night photography like shooting start trails, light trails, fireworks, city spaces etc. The slow shutter speed allows you to blur out the moving parts of the photo to create a really unique effect. The iPhone camera doesn't really shoot with a slow shutter or in long exposure, rather the Slow Shutter Cam app digitally combines a series of photos to replicate the effect. And believe us, it is very close to actual slow shutter effect. Snapseed : Snapseed is one of the best photo editing app ever came across. It gives you full control over all the adjustments you make. You can actually create exactly the kind of look that you want for each photo. Snapseed also pays a lot of attention to get your basics clear. It allows you to edit brightness, contrast and saturation which are generally missing in other photo applications.

PicBackMan does exactly what it's supposed to. It's quick and efficient. It runs unobtrusively in the background and has done an excellent job of uploading more than 300GB of photos to 2 different services. After having lost a lot of personal memories to a hard drive crash, it's nice to know that my photos are safe in 2 different places.

LOVE this program! Works better than ANY other program out there that I have found to upload thousands of pictures WITH SUB-FOLDERS to SmugMug! Thank you so much for what you do! :) #happycustomer

I pointed PicBackMan at a directory structure, and next time I looked - all the photos had uploaded! Pretty cool. I use SmugMug and while I really like it, the process of creating directories in is pretty laborious when you need to make 80+ at a time. This was a breeze. Thank you!
