Why I love Selfies

August 24, 2014

I live for selfies. It's one of my favorite ways to past the time. While others play Pet Rescue Saga, I'm busy perfecting my "smile with your eyes" technique, thanks Tyra. Some may say it's vain others say it's a way to express yourself. I think it's a confidence booster. After all,  the word selfie has to parallel the word self-esteem. 

Taking selfies are easy. Gone are the days of taking a photo with your digital camera, uploading it, editing it in Adobe Photoshop and then sharing for all to see. What? we all do it. I edit my photos.

Now, with the power of smart phones. We can take a photo, edit it and upload it seamlessly to Social Media. Some social media apps even have editing software lumped right in, so sprucing up that already beautiful selfie is a breeze.

Here are some of my favorite iPhone apps for editing selfie's

Instagram: They've really stepped their game up, With all types of adjustments. Saturation, contrast and warmth are a must so to give yourself some life and color, but breath easy... if it gets too complicated, they still have our favorite auto adjustments.

Lo-Fi all day!

Facebook:  Has some really cool auto adjustments, but you can't tweak them as much. Hopefully Facebook with eventually adopt some of the same editing tools as Instagram in the near future. 

Adobe Photoshop Express: My favorite and most extensive photo editing tools I really love the healing tool for blemishes.
