Mobile Photography & Art – My Top Five Apps by Rita Colantonio from Dennis, Massachusetts
We are revitalising our Top Five Apps section to our Photo App Lounge column. This a section within TheAppWhisperer where we ask highly accomplished mobile photographers and artists to list their top five apps and to explain why they have selected them. Kicking us off today is hugely accomplished mobile photographer and artist, Rita Colantonio who originally started out as an artist, teaching art to children for many years. Colantonio discovered digital photography around the time that she retired and relatively recently found that her iPhone has led her to more creative adventures more akin to her love of artistic experimentation. Through the use of iPhone apps Colantonio confesses that “she finds…
Mobile Photography & Art – My Top Five Apps by Amanda Parker – United States
“I use these five apps on almost every edit. Some of them including Superimpose and Distressed FX apps have been favorites of mine for years. Besides my top five I occasionally use drawing apps including Art Studio and Leonardo, and the new Metabrush for their particular strengths. Here as mentioned are my top five apps”. Decim* A fantastic and unique app. I frequently will run edits through decim8 to see what interesting shapes and perspectives it comes up with. It’s a challenging interface though and I still don’t understand all its uses! Each edit when it runs through decim8, comes out in an unusual and original way. Effexy…
Mobile Photography – TrueView Interview – “How TheAppWhisperer Helps Me with Mobile Photography and Art” by Marguerite Khoury

Mobile Photography & Art – My Top Five Apps by Karen Axelrad – Berlin, Germany
My go-to apps are Snapseed which is the one I recommend if you only have one app, Hipstamatic for black and white street photography and for experimenting, Stackables app for texture and formulas that are easy to edit, and Superimpose for tweaking two edits. But all these apps have been discussed by others, so I thought I would elucidate on my five favorite less-known apps.

Scroll through your camera roll for an accidental coupling then lock one or both photos and try various filters out. The results are fun and surprising. I also save…

Mobile Photography – TrueView Interview – ‘Why I Create Self Portraiture with a Smartphone’ with Eliza Badoiu from Romania
Our TrueView Interview section is an area where we ask one singular question, to mobile photographers and artists and it is captured to video. This time, we asked highly accomplished Mobile Photographer and Artist, Eliza Badoiu from Romania, to consider and answer ‘why I create self portraiture with my smartphone’. It is an interesting question to ponder, there are over 1.8 billion photos shared around the internet each day, many of these are selfies. The difference, we feel in our questioning is that we are asking artists. Therefore, do artists take self portraits because it gives them the opportunity to view themselves from the outside? That a considerable amount of…
Mobile Photography – TrueView Interview – ‘Why I Create Self Portraiture with a Smartphone’ with Violet Martins from Brazil
Our TrueView Interview section is an area where we ask one singular question, to mobile photographers and artists and it is captured to video. This time, we asked accomplished Mobile Photographer and Artist, Violet Martins from Brazil to consider and answer ‘why I create self portraiture with my smartphone’. Martins created the video below and replied in text to this thought, “The reason I take self portraitures, is because I can! I don’t have to ask and I can edit as I imagine as I go on“. I would say that knowing Martins, as I do there’s more to this than meets the eye. If we are to consider that…
Photography – Capturing Watson – An Interview with Albert Watson
I am a huge fan of Albert Watson OBE, so when Taschen sent me this interview, I thought I would share it with you too. Watson has just completed a new book with Taschen, entitled KAOS. The book is not only oozing with dazzling subjects but also, the well known ravishing Taschen quality, of which, there’s nothing really like it. KAOS spans nearly half a century of photography to encounter stars, statesmen, women, and strangers; bound through neon-blazing cities; find figures poised, gymnastic, or shimmering with nude eroticism; roam the bright lights and the backstreets; soak up extravagant sunsets; enter the controlled studio environment; and breathe in the elemental wilds…
Mobile Photography & Art – My Top Five Apps by Alon Goldsmith from Los Angeles, California, USA
We are revitalising our Top Five Apps section to our Photo App Lounge column. This a section within TheAppWhisperer where we ask highly accomplished mobile photographers and artists to list their top five apps and to explain why they have selected them. Kicking us off today is highly accomplished mobile photographer, Alon Goldsmith from Los Angeles, California, United States. “If you had asked me what my top five photo apps were a few years ago, I would have had a hard time narrowing it down. These days, I’m driven to create work with a more photorealistic feel, so I’m currently using apps less than in the past. That said, here are…
