DIY Your Own Quotes for Pinterest - 5min Using Your Mobile Device

Once you start creating your own stock photos make sure to include a few for backdrops. These are great for writing text and sharing inspirational quotes. Especially for posting in Pinterest. Here are a few things to consider...

1. Find images that looks great vertical or horizontal.

2. Get pics with dominating color schemes. I used a blank wall at Starbucks because I liked the wood grain look.

3. Step back and take a wide angle shot. I use my iPhone because inspiration can sneak up and being prepared is a must.  

Once you have them saved you can upload it to your cloud and use them whenever you feel like it. (I use a Time Capsule for most of my collections but have a few on my phone.)

For example I had a funny thought and opened up my A+ Signature app and within 5 minutes I created a Pin-able quote.

Below are a few examples of my own collection that I plan to use in the future :)

Should you invest in mobile phone accessories for photography? That depends on one factor which is if you enjoy capturing "life's moments." I don't own a Canon, Sony, Nikon or any other camera [yet] because I can't be bothered with lugging it around. Being a busy mom + entreprenuer is an understatement since multi-tasking is the new black. It's normal for people to text, walk & chew gum but remembering extra equiptment can be challenging. 

Most phone accessories are compact and can be placed in a convenient pouch that slides into your purse or messenger bag. [I'm not into purses.] If you see a stunning sunset, lucky ladybug or a beautiful family moment you can capture, print & frame it. PEACE be the Journey.

PS: I didn't focus very well on the Macro15x lens but you get the idea. Basically I stood at the same place for every shot.
