Instagram Edit

One of my favorite pass times would have to be editing photo's with super fun iPhone apps (& posting on IG ofcoarse).  Today, I want to share one of my absolute fave techniques that I normally get asked how do you do that? (quite frequently) so here it goes, enjoy!

  • The apps used for this edit are PicFrame & Juxtaposer (optional: Bokehful for the extra kick)
Here is the image first captured by my iPhone.  The first step in creating your photo is filtering the colors to your liking. Camera+ is a great app for filters, you can make the green water blue with a slide if your finger!  I also used Bokehful to add the circles in the photo.

After the photo is filtered to your liking, first step is to  picture to PicFrame, I chose the option of 4 frames and rounded the frames as well.  Add the same picture to each frame as follows:


Line up the photo so that the image remains intact, this may take awhile but is very important to make sure all the photos align the same.


your photo is near completion! So save this photo to your photo library.

Now you are ready to open Juxtaposer.  When you open the app, you want to click on "start a new session."  First step is to load a base image, your base image will be what you just saved from PicFrame.  Instantly, Juxtaposer will ask you to load your 2nd image, this will be your original photo (with filters).  And erase away!  You can juxtapose as much as you want (or as much as you have time for).  To keep this tutorial I only juxtaposed a few simple areas,


& last but not least after you;ve saved your wonderful piece to the camera roll.  Upload to IG and add your fave IG filter & post!
Hope you enjoyed, please let me know if you have any questions (via comments) as this is my first time posting! I'd love to share.
