1. An electronic device comprising:
a communication module; and
a processor operatively connected to the communication module and configured to transmit and receive data to and from external electronic devices through the communication module, and
wherein the processor is configured to:
receive a preview source image from a first external electronic device, wherein the preview source image is associated with an image photographed through a camera of the first external electronic device;
performing a first image processing on the preview source image, thereby resulting in a preview image;
transmit the preview image to a second external electronic device and a third external electronic device;
receive a request for second image processing from the second external electronic device;
transmit a first modified preview image obtained by performing the second image processing on the preview image to the second external electronic device in response to the request;
receive a request for third image processing from the third external electronic device;
transmit a second modified preview image obtained by performing the third image processing on the preview image to the third external electronic device;
request, to the first external electronic device, a still source image associated with the photographed image when a request for a still image corresponding to the first modified preview image is received from the second external electronic device, wherein the still source image and the preview source image are obtained by the first external electronic device at substantially a same time; and
transmit, to the second external electronic device, a first modified still image obtained by performing the second image processing on the still source image.
