Love taking pictures of your dog?
Sometimes, you can just crop and turn a bad picture into a good one.
But other times, the lighting may not have been fantastic… Or the picture seemed off… but You just L-O-V-E the way your dog looked in it.
Is there a way to make the photo better?
Photo apps to enhance your photos
Sure! If you took the photo on your mobile phone, here’s some mobile photo app effects that could possibly help spruce up that photo! They are useful too for normal non-pet photos as well. Haha!
Apps to manipulate light
- Bokeh
- Light leak effects
- Make the floor brighter 1
- Make the floor brighter 2
- Make a photo dark and eerie
Apps to manipulate colour
- Colour filters
- HDR and saturation
- Selective colour: A pop or splash of colour
- Get brighter colours for your photos
Apps to make the photo artistic
- Collage: Mix it up
- Cutouts
- Double and multiple exposures
- Make a photo abstract
- Making moving pictures with Cinemagraph apps can be pretty hit and miss
- Mirroring
- Text: add it to a photo
- Turn your photo into a sketch
- Turn your photo into a watercolour painting

Now if you prefer #unfiltered and apps are not something you’re keen to use.

Maybe your photos of your dog look the same all the time – same pose, same expression, boring! You might wanna check out some great examples of photos of dogs along these different themes below. For inspiration. :)

We don’t do much with the phone, Mom likes to use her Nikon for most of our photos and editing on the phone she says is a pain in her behind. There are a lot of good apps and software programs out there to help out a bad picture. Good links you have to find more ideas.

I am trying to do a bit more with my phone, but it is frustrating because usually the dogs are not right in front of me. Thanks for the great info.
