Abstract: In embodiments of a mobile-first photography workflow device, digital photos that have been captured with a digital camera are received by the workflow device, and proxy images that each corresponds to one of the digital photos is created, where the proxy images have less data than a corresponding one of the digital photos, yet remain configured for photo editing. The proxy images are communicated to a tablet device that can receive and display a proxy image that has the less data than the corresponding digital photo. The workflow device can then receive a metadata update from the tablet device, where the metadata update is associated with a photographer editing a proxy image. An edited digital photo can then be generated at the workflow device based on the metadata update applied to the corresponding digital photo, and the edited digital photo can be synchronized with additional computing devices.

Abstract: A content editing application may receive preview image data from a sensor. The preview image data may be displayed within an interface of the content editing application. The content editing application may request that the sensor capture a final image and the final image may be displayed within the interface of the content editing application.

Abstract: In response to receiving, by an image editing application, selection of a layer from an image comprising at least two layers, selecting the layer in the image editing application. A view from a camera may be rendered by the image editing application in at least a portion of the selected layer. In response to receiving, by the image editing application, an input indicating that the view from the camera should be captured, the view from the camera can be captured. The captured view from the camera may be inserted into the at least the portion of the selected layer by the image editing application.
