The Magic of Snapseed with Rad Drew

I'm pleased as punch to be able to bring Rad Drew BACK to the community, who is incredibly well known across the USA and beyond for his wonderful mobile phone photography! This time, he shares his passions for mobile editing in Snapseed.

From Rad:

Session Description 

SnapSeed is one of the most powerful apps for processing images on mobile phones! It’s also FREE and runs on both iPhone and Android devices. Photographer Rad A. Drew has been using SnapSeed since if first appeared in 2011. Rad will share his workflow along with tips and tricks you can use to edit and stylize your images using SnapSeed on your iPhone or Android phone.

Note to Android Users:  

Demonstrations will be done on the iPhone. The June 2025 update of SnapSeed affected ONLY iPhones and not Android phones. While the interface now looks different on the two platforms, SnapSeed’s adjustments continue to work the same on both iPhone and Android. Android users are welcome with the understanding that Rad will be presenting the new SnapSeed 3.0 on an iPhone. He will make every effort to point out differences that will be useful for Android photographers. 

What you'll learn...

• Navigating the interface

• Working with RAW files

• Creating “looks” 

• A standard workflow for any image

• The power of masking and how to selectively edit portions of an image

• Leaving a touch of color in a B&W photo

• Replacing a sky 

• Creating composites

• And more!

From Rad: How I Did It!™; Getting the Most and Best from Your iPhone Camera We all have an phone, but many of its features go unused because we don’t know they’re there or how to use them.
