A New Instagram

Okay, so if you haven't figured it out yet, I'm pretty much always on my phone. I'm not that person who is oblivious of this fact, though. I do get off it when I need to be and I realize it's completely inconsiderate to text while people are talking to me. BUT, because I love my iPhone and I love photography, combining the two is just perfect and I end up on my iPhone a lot of the day. And what do I mean by combining the two? Well, the wonderful camera on the 4S of course!

I've been a fan of Instagram for a few years now and I still love it! Props to Instagram. But I'm always looking for new photography apps and I just never seem to find any I like. Well, I can no longer say that!! I just heard about an app called VSCO Cam yesterday so I went to check out the video on VSCO's website and decided is was worth buying. VSCO also makes a product for Lightroom, ACR, and Aperture that I wish I had but for now, I'll enjoy my 99 cent app! This app is a lot like Instagram but in my opinion, there are certain things I like more. I love how the filters make the pictures look like film, which is what the company was aiming for, I do believe. I love film and since the art of it is slowly dying, it's neat to watch a digital photo have a look of film. It may never be exact but it's close. I also love VSCO Cam because the pictures can be larger. You don't have to crop them to a square. You do if you upload the photo to Instagram, of course, but if you're just keeping it in your gallery or uploading it to Facebook, the photo can be a normal rectangle. Don't get me wrong, though. I do love squares. Haha.

But anyway, if you're looking for a new app, go buy VSCO Cam. It's only available for the iPhone but it's totally worth the dollar!
