The Best App for Editing Photos on Your iPhone or Android Phone in 2020 | VSCO | The Bryan Ruppdate

Even though I’ve been a professional photographer since 2006, for almost all of my personal photos, I use that beautiful little glass and metal device in my pocket. Yep, my iPhone.

It is an INCREDIBLY capable tool if you know how to use it correctly, and you can produce some amazing content.

In this episode of the Bryan Ruppdate, Episode 4, I’m talking about the app I use on my IPhone to edit my photos.

It gives me a consistent enough look across the photos I take on my professional cameras and the photos I take on my iPhone. And best of all, it’s totally Free!!

In this video I’m out on a bike ride and I’ll show you via screen record how to use VSCO to edit your photos, and I’ll live edit a photo of my bike leaning up against a tree.

The Bryan Ruppdate | Basics of Lighting for Photo + Video

Lighting is hands down the number one factor in how your photos and videos turn out. Good light, and even the simplest phone camera can produce an incredible shot, bad light, even the most amazing professional camera can produce a terrible photo that cannot be recovered in anyway.

In this video I run you through the two most basic techniques for natural lighting that I use day to day to light any and every situation. I’m the type of photographer who doesn’t bring additional lights unless I have to, and I’ve found ways to use natural light that give results that align better with my beliefs and goals with photography and videography.

I love talking with people about photography and videography, if you have any questions or if I can help in anyway please email me at bryan@bryanrupp.com.
