Hipstamatic Love!

I love the Hipstamatic app on iPhone! It’s so fun to play around with that I use it way more than the regular camera. I’ve been using it so much that now, I always know exactly what lens I wanna use it what situation.  I definitely have my favorites. As far as lenses go…

Chunky is my favorite for anytime I want a really colorful, contrasty picture. I’ve taken a lot of my favorite pics with it.

Bettie XL is good at giving a rainbowy blast of color to a picture. It’s very random though and sometimes way more colorful than others, so it’s fun to mess with.

Roboto Glitter, I just like how it adds those lines around the edges of the picture. It draws attention to whatever is in the center and makes it look kinda glowy.

The two Ina’s films are my favorites. I should probably switch it up a little more! :P And I hardly ever mess with the flashes.

Do you use Hipstamatic? What are your favorite lenses/films/flashes?

    I big-heart Hipstamatic! I also love Jimmy with Float, and Helga Viking with either of the Ina films when I just want a little pop but a mostly normal pic. If I didn’t think it’d be bad for business all my etsy pics would be Hipsta! (Most of the bloggie pics sure are already. lol)

      I always go for the Helga Viking when I want a semi normal pic too! I’ve definitely seen Hipstamatic pics on Etsy! I agree though that it’s kinda bad. They don’t really show true colors so I could see that creating problems. But I guess if you had some normal pics in your listing too, it could be ok.

    I definitely don’t use the Chunky Lens enough, so thanks for the inspiration/motivation there.

    One of my favourite lenses to use is Lucifer VI. It adds a colourful halo around the centre of the image (sort of like the lines effect you mentioned with Roboto) and really brings reds out to the forefront. Lucifer also complements all three black and white films very well.

    I dont really have a favourite lense or film. Them all have thier time and place (as you have shown!)
    We are exploring all of them and shooting an image a day for a year using only the hipstamatic app.
    The three of us are all working photographers, but love the spontenaity of the hipstamatic!
