In my humble opinion, nothing replaces hiring a professional photographer, but I’ll be honest, I take more photos of my life with my phone than my fancy camera.
So, I want to share some photo editing apps for moms that I thought you might like!
📷 Chatbooks: Do you struggle to print your photos regularly? This intuitive app automatically transforms your everyday photos into quality photo books. Link your photo accounts, and Chatbooks crafts the memories for you (My favorite part is, they include the captions from your social media posts. It isn’t free however. Rates start as low as $8 per month).
🖼️ Lightroom Mobile: Want to level up your cell phone editing? Lightroom Mobile will give you refined editing capabilities. Adjust color, balance, and detail with this professional-grade mobile editor. (My favorite trick/hack for LR mobile is using the “Portrait” mode to add a professional touch to your family portraits. Its easy and fun to adjust the “Amount” and “Radius” sliders to subtly blur the background, making your loved ones stand out. Hands down my favorite and I love portrait mode on my iphone as well. Although its not great for every instance…. happy to chat if you have questions.
📁 PhotoGrid: Whether it’s collages or scrapbooking layouts, PhotoGrid offers creative ways to arrange and display your photos, all in a few taps. Its free to download and use and makes fun collages!
🔍 VSCO: Not just a regular editing tool, VSCO provides a set of stunning filters that can elevate any photo’s aesthetic, giving it a distinct mood and tone.
🖌 Canva: While it’s a broad design tool, Canva’s user-friendly interface offers beautiful templates for crafting photo collages, celebratory cards, or personalized invitations directly from your device.
All in all – every photo you have (whether it’s professional, with your big camera or a quick cell phone snap) has value and tells a story! Let these apps help you narrate it beautifully.
Let me know what you think!
