Here's my write up as it appears in the spread:

SHAKE IT PHOTO

My go-to app is Shake It Photo which I like for it's ease of use and one-touch processing. Aesthetically I like the subtle adjustment in saturation and contrast. Applying not too much of either gives the photo just enough boost. And the textured, off-white border and the inner drop shadow around the frame provide the last bit of detail that completes the Polaroid feel.

Beyond this, street portraits make sense on a more emotional level. The brief interactions I have with my subjects is as fleeting as the photo-processing itself, and the photographs that inspired the app.
