Diptic Photo App Attack

by Leave a Comment

Feeling yellow

My friend Tar’lese asked me the other day if I had seen the Diptic App for iPhone and I hadn’t, so I did a little investigating at the App store.

Turns out the app is pretty cool (I so though of Miley Cyrus SNL spoof when I wrote that). I could totally make fun little diptics of anything and everything! The one above is artsy in cool tones. Love the yellow throughout.

Here’s one I did of Frankie, my boyfriend William’s poodle. Isn’t he a doll?

And here’s a moody one of me…

Doesn’t it look like fun? I can see this being great for “Day in the life” type of posts or covering an event in one concise photo roundup. Love it!

Until next time Swellions!

Fun with Swankolab

I got another cool new app called Swankolab by the makers of Hipstamatic! I have been having a lot of fun with it. It does a lot of fun photo effects and simulates a darkroom. Visit the web site…it really is a hoot! The sound effects especially. Here’s some fun artsy photos I shot with my phone and process using the app that I wanted to share…

Hey guys! Sorry for being M.I.A. over the past couple of days. I guess I was tired and just needed my rest (I crashed at 10:30 both nights).

Anyway, I just wanted to share some fun photos that I’ve taken with my Hipstamatic app for my iPhone! Hands down, this is my most favorite app that I’ve ever purchased. It gives the look of old vintage camera effects and you can purchase different lenses, film, and flashes (each add on is 99ยข). Anyway, it’s just so fun and you get such artsy effects without really trying at all!

Hot Dog on a Stick
Here’s a photo I took tonight while walking past Hot Dog on A Stick. The colors of the lemonade caught my eye and I knew it would make for a great photo!

The Sky
Here’s a moody photo of the sky. It looks so haunting!

Abstract cup
Here’s a cool one I took while at the stop light (I know, I know…shame, shame). Anyway, I shot this through a plastic cup for this cool abstract effect.

Here’s one adorable poodle…Mr. Frankie! It kinda looks like he’s missing an eye!

Standstill
And I can’t show Frankie’s cuteness without showing Pixie’s too!

Big wheel keeps on turnin'
I went to a carnival last week and shot this one…

Tickets
I really like this one too. A kid was running away, thus the shadow you see in the middle.

For those interested in downloading it, their web site pretty much sums it up. I think part of the reason I like this app so much is because they really devoted a lot of time into making it authentic and all the design and description details are so campy and cool. It really does feel like you’re using an old analog camera.

Hope you have a great Friday! Until next time Swellions!
