Take Control of iPhone Photography, 2nd Edition

The big 2nd edition of my book on how to take great photos with your iPhone is now available!

The weather is getting nicer here in Seattle, which means more opportunities to get outside and take photos. I have good photo equipment, but honestly I take more photos with my iPhone than my dedicated cameras. If you’re in the same situation, I have great news: the big second edition of my book Take Control of iPhone Photography is now available!

And when I say big, I mean it. Apple revamped the Camera app in iOS 26, so some features that were obvious before are now hidden; heck, just navigating the mode selector is an exercise by itself.

But this isn’t a book that just steps through the controls. I want you to take great photos. And while the iPhone camera does make good-looking photos automatically, when you know what it’s capable of, and take a deliberate approach to iPhone photography, your snapshots can get elevated to photos you’ll want to hang on your walls.

The 169 page ebook includes new chapters about working with the Shared Library feature and using add-ons like grips and filters. The video chapter has been expanded, and hardware-specific features like the Center Stage selfie camera on the iPhone 17 models are also included.

Take Control of iPhone Photography is available now for just $14.99, or $22.49 with a Take Control Premium membership (that gives you discounts and perks for the entire Take Control catalog.)
