The iPhoneography Showcase of Laurent Nivalle

I'm 35, I studied products design at Ecole Boulle (ESAA) in Paris and UTC University Technologie of Compiègne in France. I was colors and materials designer for 4 years for Citroën, It is why I have a special interest for new expressions. I'm currently art director, cg artist and photographer always for Citroën Design Center. I make communication stuff for this brand (pictures and movies). I have been doing photography and learned by myself for more than three years and I discovered iPhone photography when I bought an iPhone few month ago. I'm now addicted :)

All pictures I took with iPhone are processed only with iPhone apps. I never use photoshop or another software. I use many apps (CameraBag, Polarize, PhotoFilters, Vint Shift, ShakeItPhoto), I depends of the final touch I want.

Above: Selfportrait : CameraBag for the B&W and ShakeItPhoto for the Polaroid fake (my preferred apps)Above: Citroën : QuadCamera for the four photos, CameraBag for the B&W, and always ShakeItPhoto.Above: CloseUp : CameraBag for the colors, ShakeItPhotoAbove: Natacha : PhotoFilters for the colors and ShakeItPhotoAbove: Phone : CameraBag for the colors and ShakeItPhotoA little funny tip : Some effects (phone, closeup photos) are made with external transparency objects, like bottles, plastics, I put them front of the iphone lenses. No iPhone apps exist to make this kind and personal effects and I'm always looking for new natural effects. Try it and you'll have got amazing results !!!
