I’ve gone through the flyers/online deals and here are the ones I’d recommend!
Note these are Canadian based vendors only, with current exchange rates most US deals probably won’t end up being great deals.

Photography Assignment Generator Apps NOW AVAILABLE ON THE APP STORE!

I am so excited to finally announce the launch of the Learnphoto.ca Photography Assignment Generator app for SLR Photographers and the iPhotography Assignment Generator App for iPhone/iPod touch shooters.  NOW AVAILABLE ON THE APP STORE FOR IPHONE AND IPOD TOUCH HERE.  If you have any problems or questions, email me.

Whether you are taking on a 365 day photo challenge or just looking for inspiration, these apps will be just perfect for you. While most apps on the app store let you DO things to the photographs you taken, like add text, borders, filters, or special effects, these app is about ideas for TAKING photographs.

Photography Assignment Generator For SLR Features:

OVER 100 INDIVIDUAL ASSIGNMENTS AND THOUSANDS OF POTENTIAL RANDOM ONES! Everything from camera settings, rules of composition, creative shooting techniques, photographing people, landscape and nature, and more subjects! Random objects and places, combined with techniques, environments, offer you hundreds of thousands of possibilities! The scavenger hunt assignment gives you lists of terms to find with your camera…with MILLIONS of possible combinations! You can choose from the list, or have the app give you one at random!

OVER 700 EXAMPLE IMAGES
Each assignment has a series of example images to demonstrate the technique or inspire you!


iPhotography Assignment Generator for iPhone/iPod Touches:

OVER 75 INDIVIDUAL ASSIGNMENTS AND THOUSANDS OF POTENTIAL RANDOM ONES!
Tailored to shooting with your iPhone/iPod, assignments range from the rules of composition, creative shooting techniques, photographing people, landscape and nature, and more subjects! Random objects and places, combined with techniques, environments, offer you hundreds of thousands of possibilities! The scavenger hunt assignment gives you lists of terms to find with your camera…with MILLIONS of possible combinations! You can choose from the list, or have the app give you one at random! Each assignment has a series of example images to demonstrate the technique or inspire you, with over 500 images in the app in total.

CAMERA TIPS/CAMERA+/INSTAGRAM TUTORIALS
The app includes tutorials on getting better photos with your iPhone/iPod touch, as well as popular apps 



FEATURES OF BOTH

DAILY REMINDER
Taking part in a 365 day challenge?  Get the app to send you a reminder each day to get your photo assignment to keep you on track.

NO NETWORK REQUIRED!
The app is completely self-contained and does not require a wifi or network connection.  No matter where you are, you can always get an assignment. NOTE: Due to the huge amount of content, the app must be downloaded over wi-fi or through iTunes on your computer.

VIDEO TOURS
Take a quick tour of the apps and their features by watching my online tour videos here: https://vimeo.com/channels/learnphoto

FREE VERSION
As a firm believe that people should be able to try before they buy, there is also a FREE version of the full app that contains just a fraction of the assignments available in the full paid version…but should be enough to make you want it all! It is from the full slr version, but is basically the same as the iPhone/iPod version, so it would work for both. 


IPAD USERS
Please note, the app with run on iPad, but not full screen(online at iPhone size). I am looking at creating a iPad version if there is interest.  Email me at app@learnphoto.ca to tell me you want it!

 
HOW YOU CAN HELP MAKE THIS A SUCCESS!

The only way this is going to be successful is to get on the popular/most downloaded list so users across the world see it…and for that I need your help!

I hope of course you download the full app!
But whether you download the full app or not, please download the free version as well. More downloads equals more popular! You can delete it after you’ve downloaded it, no worries.

Here are some other ways you can help out:

-Please forward this info on the app to anyone else you think may be interested! Make sure to cc me on the email!
-Post the info on any photographers forums, blogs, etc, that you take part in who may be interested.
-Like and share my app page on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/PhotographyAppsByLearnphotoca
-Like and share my posts on Facebook about the app launch.
-Like and share my app page on my website at http://www.learnphoto.ca/apps

SAYING THANKS FOR THE HELP

Obviously I have to try to thank you for helping me out, so I’m going to offer some launch prizes.
Every time you do any of the above, you’re name will go in a draw.  So if you share and like a status, like my app page, and email the info(cc me!), that would be 4 entries.
Starting off, I’m going to be giving away 5-5$50 gift certificates towards courses(transferable if you don’t want to use them, would make a great Christmas gift!)…and will add more as sales increase. if the apps really take off, I’ll start adding some bigger prizes, like iPod touches!

Thank you for checking out the app, I’m really hoping this can give me the opportunity to just do what I love, teach photography!

Please contact me if you have any questions or problems!
