Now that you have your setup, here are 5 iPhone apps that can take your pictures to the next level. In this Tip Sheet, Evi shares her favorite go-to photo apps that will have you taking professional looking shots in no time.

VSCO CamVSCOcam (free)
If you are only considering one app this is the one! VSCOCam is far better then your build in iPhone camera. My favorite feature: their separate exposure and focus points. They allow you to focus on one area of the product and play around with the exposure by dragging the exposure point to lighter or darker areas in the frame.
 

Aviary Photo EditorAviary (free)
Aviary is my go to iPhone photo editor. I can quickly take care of blemishes or adjust cropping. If you need a lot more power and features try Adobe's Photoshop for iPhone version, but be warned it's deep!
