Hey it’s me and @veen talking product, hats, and indie development of @seriesphotosapp
‘What Do You Want to Be When You Grow Up’ — episode #121 with special guest @rcarver
relay.fm/presentable/121
Didn’t make photography a habit in 2022, but made some good images during a few trips to the Eastern Sierra. Quality over quantity?
I did manage to rebuild and relaunch @seriesphotosapp this year. Used it to curate that set! It’s a unique joy to create with tools you made.
One of these is close to home, the other is very much not. It's a good reminder to appreciate what is near and to reach for new experiences.
Huge update for Series. An important step in building long term value in the tool.
Now Available: Series Templates. Save and reuse your layouts. Consistent posts were never easier.
Templates capture every aspect of your layout: frame, color, spacing, margin, and edge. Make it yours, then apply to any number of photos.

A little insight into the oft-hidden corners of product design. Love that @rcarver is starting to share bits of the process behind @seriesphotosapp on Medium (below) as well as on IGTV/Twitter.
This is the post I mention at the end if you need more product design nerding.

This was a fun one to make.
New! Add an edge around photos, in any style of layout.

My favorite design detail of the new UI: the monospaced numerals of Ringside by @HoeflerCo.

Really excited about this new release!
Shape your story faster with new One-Tap Layouts. Fluidly switch between them with any number of photos, then make it your own with fine-grained controls.

One year ago today I posted this pairing to Instagram. A month later I started learning iOS and working on what would become Series.
So happy for how far it's come and excited for what's next!
This release was a ton of work, but also a lot of fun. Finally got the UI to a place that feels good and ready to grow.
Release 1.5 is now available!
The controls have been completely redesigned and rebuilt, bringing the lovely Ringside font from @HoeflerCo into the UI for a more refined yet playful feel.

Look at that! Series is one of @Apple's 'New apps we❤️'

Creating a product means understanding your role in the world. I’m still figuring that out but here’s today’s thought.
Love putting together these case studies for @seriesphotosapp. This one features @danrubin shooting @kristinamariee on @lomography film.
Watch @danrubin use Series to quickly crop and add borders for @instagram (1/3)
