DarkroomPro Magazine

A photography magazine,
built for the tablet age

DarkroomPro was an iOS digital photography magazine that I founded, edited, and published. Each issue paired serious craft — lighting, composition, post-processing, and gear — with the kind of bold, full-bleed layout that only a tablet screen could do justice. The goal was simple: make the technical side of photography genuinely enjoyable to read.

Distributed by Apple in 155 countries, the magazine reached the App Store's “What's Hot” list in 146 of them and hit #1 in Arts & Photography in two markets.
