Portrait Taking Tips on Juxt!

Passion for Portraiture? Tips to get you started by Geri Centonze

As a former sketch card and portrait artist, I am drawn to portrait photography and wanted some tips from a few of my favorite mobile photographers for producing beautiful portraits using a smartphone.  I’ve gathered their advice along with some stunning samples of their work.  Photographers featured are both hobbyists and professionals from around the globe- Geri @gericentonze

A Conversation Between Artists–Featured on WeAreJUXT

WeAreJUXT, a community of mobile artists asked Instagram users to make suggestions for improving their site.  I suggested they feature a photographer Dilshad Corleone aka @italianbrother whose work I admire.  Much to my surprise, they not only took my suggestion, but asked me to conduct the interview done as a “conversation” to be published on their site.

Today the article was published and I’m thrilled to be a part of this project.

Everything for the iPhoneography enthusiast at JUXT

I should have said everything “and more”.  JUXT is one of my favorite discoveries since I started my iPhoneography adventure. 
One of the many features includes a tutorials section.  I think I’ll be spending a lot of time there!  I used the basic instructions for the Into the Dark tutorial by Joanna D to get the result below.  Mouse over the image to see the boring BEFORE photo.
