By far our favorite and most used photo editing site is PicMonkey. PicMonkey has a free account option which allows for basic editing of your photos, as well as text overlay, “badges,” cropping, resizing, etc.

Canva is one of my best-kept secrets – an incredible site for making gorgeous, professional images for your blog and social media sites.

You can make a variety of different size and shape images and banners and share or download directly from their design studio.

SnapSeed

This smartphone app has so much functionality! You can easily import any photo and easily edit colors, brightness, saturation, vignette and more! You can then choose to save to your camera roll or export directly to a social media site.

Fontmania

Fontmania is a paid app that lets you edit photos and add decorative overlays to give even more interest to your photos. Choose from a variety of overlays, colors and other text to help your photos really tell a story.

HOMEWORK:

Spend some time editing photos either on your desktop or smartphone and add them to your blog posts and social media.

Try to get in the habit of taking pictures often so that when you are writing you have photos readily available to use in your posts.
