2. Professional v.s. Personal?
Many people in today’s society use some sort of photo sharing application in their daily lives.
Many young people, such as myself, use these three applications everyday for their personal
entertainment use. However, businesses often do you use these applications, or ones
similar, for their marketing needs.
3. VSCO is a commonly downloaded mobile photography sharing app created by
Greg Lutze and Joel Flury 11 years ago. Users are able to capture photos, as well
as videos, and edit them thoroughly before sharing to their feed. VSCO offers
many different editing tool options, as well as presets, for all of your editing needs.
4. Examples of VSCO

of capturing a photo (left) as well as placing
presets on to your photo (right).
5. Instagram is a popular social media platform for sharing photos and videos to others. It was
launched in 2010 after being created by Kevin Systrom. This application allows users to capture
photos and videos, edit them, and share them to your friends.
6. Examples of Instagram
These two examples of Instagram show a fun filter
option for photos (left) and exploring friends

7. Google Photos is a photo sharing and storage application added to google in 2015. Google
photos allows plenty of storage space for its users, as well as great tools for sharing and looking
at other photos.
