There are times when lugging a laptop around with you is just not going to happen. This is where great devices like the iPhone and iPad come in. They are easy to transport, and can even help you process photos without the need of a laptop. Thanks to apps like Filterstorm, the need to stay tethered to a computer is growing ever thinner.
Filterstorm takes programs like Lightroom, or Aperture, and brings them right onto your iOS device of choice. Filterstorm contains all the goodness of tonal curves, noise reduction, saturation, cloning, and so much more. It can even bypass size limitations that Apple imposed with a simple copy and paste technique.
Filterstorm’s interface is easy on the eye while maintaining simplicity in navigation. Firing up the app will have the basic controls on the left side of the screen. Loading up a photo is as easy as choosing it from your photo library. Those with a camera connection kit and iPad can even bring in photos straight off a memory card. Navigating around the app is rather intuitive and makes your mobile workflow a breeze. Even the adjustment boxes can be moved around the screen to help keep them out of your way.
Once the photo is in the app, the real work begins. All edits happen without destroying your original photo. There is even an apply button you have to hit before each change becomes final. This makes it simple to test out various changes without running for the undo option. There is even a masking option so you can paint in the changes you want, right where you want them. Read More→
This is where you would expect me to tell you about my life, how awesome I am, or why I am so superior to other people in this line of business. I would enjoy telling you how I have wrestled grizzly bears 10 feet tall. Maybe you would like hearing how I have taken on Velociraptors in my days as a young man. Even better is the story how I have traveled to the furthest reaches of space to stop catastrophic alien invasions. The problem will be that you might not believe my awesome stories.
I will keep these awesome stories for the campfire though. I’m just a man, taking pictures, trying to make a living. I ditched my education in computers in favor of pursuing my passion for photography. I enjoy a good cold beer on a warm day. I have a fondness of the outdoors.. I have enjoyed years capturing life’s unscripted moments. Hopefully, I can enjoy many more years of slacking off without fear of those grizzlies taking me out before my time.
My Philosophy is to capture those non-scripted moments. To capture the little details that this world really has to offer. From weddings to insects, I enjoy capturing the life, the details, and the moments that come and go in a flash.
