Geek Tip: Lomo-fy Your Digital Photos

After all the fun I had making my photos look like tiny models with the Tilt-Shift effect, I had to look for something new to add to my effects arsenal. I love my Lomo camera and the effect it produces, but to be honest, I don't always have the cash to throw down for film or development. It can get pretty darn expensive!

So if you're in the same boat, we can save some cash together by playing around with our digital photos in Photoshop with the Lomo Effect. It makes your pics look like they were expertly shot and developed using the plastic cameras with just a few simple steps. Check out the great tutorial here, and afterwards share with us your Lomo-fied pics by uploading them to your TeamSugar account!

    I have about 20 of the 'lomo' cameras. I like the Pop9 and Octomat. I did a school project with them all once. It was tough to convince people the images weren't digital.

    I love love love this tutorial! The fun thing about it is how you can tweak it yourself to change the outcome a little bit. I have a Photoshop action that I use; it does all the work for me. All I have to do is remove some layers and adjust it!

    I will definitely have to upload some of my lomo photos. I love it!
