Off topic, but I found those photos to be very nice. Is it just an app and an iPhone? I would love to be able to take photos like those. Are there any blogs or anything which have guides on this sort of photography?
Author here. Thank you! The iPhone 5s is quite superior when it comes to photography and the rest of it I do through VSCO CAM ( http://vsco.co/vscocam ).
According to the author, they were taken using an iphone 5s and edited with vsco. It's a great app that gives this analog feel. You can check their site: http://vsco.co/vscocam.
From the manly beach and the airbus shot, it could be an iphone or similar, yes. The low light and mixed exposure shots give it away. I agree though, it looks lovely, especially the night market and the London shot - very nice light.
How to take photos like this? Well, I'm no expert, but I would say the key to all good photography is framing, lighting, and throwing away 99.9% of the hundreds of photos you take.
Beautiful work! I love the colour and contrast. The London, Phuket (both) and Byron shots are just great. Oh and I liked the article too, except I'd replace samsonite with rimowa :)
