How to: 4 apps for editing your iPhone photographs...

I thought I'd write up a post on how I edit the photo's on my iPhone. Sharing the common problems and the apps I use to fix them, some apps are for editing, some are fun photo effects. So, here's what I use on a daily basis to quickly, simply tweak and perfect the photos from my phone...

Brightening up a photo. Sometime's it's too dark to take (the 'perfect' instagram) photos, leaving pictures looking dull or with an orange tint due to indoor lighting such as lamps or overhead lighting. Here's a before and after...

The app you need? Afterlight cost: 79p.

Open the Afterlight app, upload the photo you wish to edit. You will see an icon of slider bars, open it and a menu of icons will open above it. You will see a symbol that looks like the sun, this is 'brightness' slide the bar across until it brightens up and lightens the dull, dark photo.
Adding cute doodles and phrases to a photo.
Sometimes it's nice to add cute little illustrations to a photo, it's a nice way of saying where something is from, adding a bit of humour, cutesy-ness or even a watermark in a pretty, colourful font.

The app you need? Pic Candy cost: free

Open Pic Candy, choose the photo you'd like to edit. You can choose from tons of cute 'doodles' and 'phrases' you can easily change the colour, size and position of these on your photograph. Even choose from quite a few pretty different fonts to add a watermark to your photo.
Creating Collages You've seen this style on my blog before, lots of little pictures into one big collage. There's quite a few apps for doing this, but this one is my favourite. You can select all of the photos you want at the same time, unlike a lot of the apps where you have to select one at a time, which can take a while.

The App you need? fotor cost: free (in app purchases available)

I love that there's so many different little ways to edit and tweak your collage and photos all within one app, this is so handy and useful. Definitely my favourite collage creating app simply for ease.
Sharpening or adding cool / warm tones. Sometimes photos can look a little blurry, they can also look warm (orange tinted) or cool (blue tinted) due to lighting. I find lamps and large overhead indoor lights often cast a warm, yellow tone to my pictures, which isn't great when in 'real life' my room is bright white.

The app you need? instagram cost: free

Open the instagram app, after choosing which photo you would like to edit and upload to instagram you will see three icons. Click the wrench / spanner icon at the end. This brings up a whole load of editing tools. You will see a thermometer icon, this is how you increase or decrease warm and cool tones.
So, that's how I edit my iPhone photographs before sharing them on instagram and twitter and the likes... What do you think? Do you have any photograph editing apps that you enjoy using? If so, let me know in the comments :)
