Today, Lisa is an accomplished photographer and tech entrepreneur with two more apps under her belt (MagiCam and Poppets). She also has a travel-photography book in the works, based on photos from all around the world taken with just her phone!

"Moment lenses ($100) take your iPhoneography to the next level. Their telephoto and wide-angle lenses are clear and stunningly sharp. I love the wide angle for shooting landscapes on the fly."
"These retro twill bags and hats from Red Canoe, like this Nasa Rocket Science Backpack ($61), are such a cool gift for a pilot or aviation buff. The Cessna Stow Bag ($88) makes a great weekend bag, and the hats are supercool anytime of the year."
"This year, I plan on finally beating my husband at a tennis match. This new 'smart' racquet, the Babolat Play Pure Drive ($300), pairs with a mobile app that tracks your real-time performance on the court. I'm hoping this info will give me an edge on my competition. If not, I have many cute outfits to distract him. ;)"
"The MeFOTO SideKick 360 ($49), a smartphone tripod adapter, is solidly built and comes in 12 colors including my favorite, gold. It's great for shooting video, time lapses, or long exposures with your mobile device."
"Constantly forgetting where you put your keys, purse, and Apple TV remote? Yeah, me too. Check out Tile ($25 each), a small Bluetooth fob that attaches to your disappearing items. When you lose them, you can track them using your iPhone."
"The force is awakening yet again, and Star Wars fans young are getting amped for the next episode. For her, a Stormtrooper and R2-D2 charm bracelet ($26-$60). For him, a Darth Vader beanie ($20). For kids, a future pilot tee ($13)."
"Keep kids occupied over the holidays with my new flying adventure game for the iPhone, Poppets ($1). The game is pretty addictive, and the characters are adorable, but you don't have to take my word for it!"
"Taking pro video with your iPad is now possible with the iOgrapher case ($65). You can easily mount the case on a tripod and add additional lighting, audio devices, and external lenses to take your video up a huge notch in quality."
