Halide Mark III and Why Photographers Still Need to Make Decisions
I’ve been writing about mobile photography for almost two decades, and if I’m honest, I thought I’d seen most of it by now. Every year brings another camera app promising to turn the iPhone into something it isn’t. There are always more controls, more presets, more editing tools, and increasingly, more artificial intelligence. And Halide Mark III made me pause for a different reason. It wasn’t the new editing tools or the collection of Looks that caught my attention. It wasn’t even the promise of producing better photographs.

Remembering Kerry Mitchell
I was deeply saddened today to hear of the sudden death of mobile photographer and artist Kerry Mitchell. I interviewed Kerry for TheAppWhisperer several times and, like many people within the mobile photography community, I always remembered the quiet sensitivity of her work. Her images never shouted for attention. They didn’t need to. They carried emotion in a much softer and more lasting way. At a time when so much photography competes to be louder, faster and more immediate, Kerry’s work did the opposite. It slowed you down. There was a calmness to her images, but also something underlying them that felt fragile and deeply human. I think that’s why…
