Waypoint Lens
Field · Photography

Photography, with a sense of place.

Plan an outing, save useful places and keep photographs connected to where they were taken. Waypoint Lens brings planning, a purpose-built iPhone camera and local capture organization into one field workflow.

In active development
What it brings together

From the plan to the photograph.

A companion for the whole outing, with the place, the capture and the original photographic material kept in context.

Plans and route stops

Use a Plan as the starting point for an outing. Connect stops and useful places to the route rather than treating every location as a disconnected note.

Waypoints with context

Keep places and photographs connected. Promote route stops to Waypoints and capture in the context of the active plan and location.

A camera for field work

Use a purpose-built iPhone camera with capture controls designed for photography in the field. Camera work remains an active part of development and device testing.

Local organization and source files

Sort incoming captures in a workspace, keep favorites in a local gallery, and retain source material for editing elsewhere. Supported capture sets can be exported together.

In everyday use

Keep the outing connected.

  1. Make a Plan

    Choose the places and route stops that shape the outing. Keep the plan as the main point of reference.

  2. Capture at a place

    Work with a Waypoint or enter the camera from the app. Keep the photograph tied to the plan and place when that context is available.

  3. Choose the keepers

    Review incoming captures, keep selected photographs and organize them into albums. Preserve original source files for later editing.

Built in the lab

Evolving through real use.

Waypoint Lens is in active development. Planning, capture and storage are being refined through real use and field testing. This page does not offer an App Store or installation link.

Designed for the field

Waypoint Lens centers on an iPhone camera and mobile planning workflow, with a companion website and API. Capture capabilities depend on the device and selected mode.
