Boost Your Blog // 4 Collage iPhone Apps for Summer Blogging

I am dying over the warm weather here!  I can't wait to get outside & take a zillion pictures like I normally do when it gets warmer.  I took about 100 photos this past Winter & I think I've exceeded that number in these last few days!  So if you're like me your blog is now going to be flooded with all you're iPhone or smart phone pics.  The Summer sun just makes everything look warm & yes I do want to see the maragrita you're drinking and your feet dangling into the cool water of a pool!

Here are some of my favorite collage apps for iPhone that will help you create cool photo layouts for your summer picture sharing & blogging:
PicFrame - I downloaded this ages ago when I first got my iPhone & it's been my go-to collage app for ever!  Since I downloaded it like over a year ago there have been a bunch of upgrades - add shapes, add effects, more layouts, it's all awesome!  This is really an all in one app since you can make the collage & edit/apply filters with in the app.  You can also open in it other apps including instagram, you can send it to flickr or facebook, and of course save to your camera roll.  It's seriously the best!
DuoMatic - It's not really a collage more like a double exposure but it's still creates a pretty cool and unique effect to share!  I loved playing with this at the lake & combining sea, sky, and sand.  You can get really artsy with it too since you don't have to take two photos instantly & can pull from your camera roll.  So edit your photos in another app & bring them over to DuoMatic.  Or create your photo then edit away in other apps! (some of my faves are listed here)

Pocketbooth (also on Android!) - Create old style photo booth pictures instantly to use in blog posts with this app.  There are several different upgrade packs available for different effects, too.  For a better blog format, try taking pictures horizontally that way you can use the film strip as sort of a banner stretching from left to right (instead of up & down) across your post.  Take pictures the traditional way & create a cool wallpaper with this tutorial, too.
BeautifulMess - This app came out just a little while ago...this week actually I think!! And I've played around with it for a few photos.  It is pretty cool! If you love the look of doodles and text on photos but aren't that skilled a doodler or a mousepad user, this app may be a great alternative to make your blog photos have that look.  Save the images directly to your camera roll & use an app like PicFrame to stitch a few together or upload a collage made in PicFrame & see what you can make.

So there you have it, some pretty sweet & pretty cool apps to spice up your photo taking and blogging this Summer.

What are you excited to document this Summer?  Any fun trips?  Do share your fun collaged pictures!

xoxo, Moe

  2. The DuoMatic app looks interesting, such a great effect! I've been seeing the A Beautiful Mess app all week on instagram, and although I'm not the biggest fan of doodling on photos I think its a great if you don't have any design programs to jazz up your photos for blogging. Great post!

  3. Beautiful plants! BTW I think the corner near the drive way/house in your flower bed needs more dirt! Don't want the water to pile into the driveway and ruin the foundation. :) We're still living in a foundation nightmare (well, almost, not sure what damage has been done so far).. but it's almost over!

  5. DuoMatic looks something of my choice, the combination of pictures which we can make out of it are amazing and beautiful. In a way, a complete story can be covered in a single picture with a good clarity.
