So I have been a fan of “A Beautiful Mess” masterminds Elsie Larson (left) and Emma Chapman (right) for a few years now. They are an amazing pair of sisters who take on the creative world one recipe/hairstyle/blogpost at a time.

They already have two AMAZING photo editing apps out called “A Beautiful Mess” and “Party Party.” Just when I thought it couldn’t get any better, they released a third amazing app called “A Color Story.”
Wow is this app amazing! I found out about their new addition through their Instagram page, which quickly led me to the “A Color Story” Instagram page.
At the time, it was still being worked on and they had the release date set for the next two weeks. I waited...and finally it was the day! I couldn’t wait to play around with the app to see just how much it could do (and it does A LOT).
So let me give you a little run-down. On this app you can:
- Access over 100 filters (wow!!!),
- Access adjusting tools such as Curves, Clarity, Contrast, Bright, Saturation, Temperature, Tint, Hue Shift, High Color Adjuster, Midtone Color Adjuster, Shadow Color Adjuster, Exposure, Sharpen, Blur, Grain, and Vignette,
- Crop, frame, rotate, and mirror your photos,
- Add Light Flares, Light Leaks, and Color Fogs to your photos,
- And finally, you can save all your editing steps and create a custom filter!!
Seems too good to be true right?
It gets better…the app is free! There are in-app purchases, but they are very reasonable. Even with the basic free version the possibilities are endless.
Don’t believe it? Here’s a picture edited with just one filter:

I can’t begin to explain how many things you can do with this app, from one touch edits to full on editing projects. Since I can’t explain everything, go check out their Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/acolorstory/ or @acolorstory
Some of you still may be thinking “How is this any different from the other editing apps I have already?”
Well, here’s something to think about from the creators themselves:
“A lot of filters we've used in the past change, tint or dull color instead of enhancing it. It was extremely important to us to create filters that enhance color, rather than covering it up!” -ABM
I love this app because of the versatility of it. It makes me realize I need more photos to edit! My friend and I both got the app when it came out a few days ago, and we can’t stop talking about it. It’s your one-stop-shop for all your photo-editing needs.
Why not try it? After all, it's free, and you've got nothing to lose!
PS: I highly recommend checking out their full blog too!
