NOTE: This is for an earlier version of iPhoto, and recorded on iOS 6. While the interface now looks different, there is still an incredible amount of useful information here.

iPhoto for the iOS is an incredibly powerful photo editor, on the simplest device imaginable. However, under the easy-to-use interface lies a wealth of power. In this workshop, expert photographer Joseph Linaschke will teach you how to import photos, pick out your best with the amazing select and compare tools, then make those favorite shots even better with the powerful correction and special effect controls. You'll also learn how to share your photos by publishing them to sites like Facebook and Flickr, uploading your own iPhoto-created “journals” to iCloud, or simply emailing them to your friends.
