    How To Make The Perfect Instagram

    How to make the perfect Instagram

    Portrait photos

    ‘‘Switching up your feed is always a a good idea instead of posting selfies, positng full body pics is always cute especially on vacation or in any cute setting. A rule of thumb that i use when taking full body pics minimzing the space between your feet and the bottom of a photo and leaving space between the top of your head and the top of your picture.’’

    Filters/ cameras

    ‘‘vintage is always in. using filters that almost mimic vintage or anything from the early 2000s is such a cute idea. using things such as disposable cameras or digital handheld cameras is so in right now. Although if you want the “in moment” look for you feed, using professional cameras is not the way to go.’’

    Lighting

    ‘‘Playing around with lighting or location really sets the tone for your profile. Dim lighting, lighting from a sun set or led/ colorful lighting can really enhance your feed. While it seems a little excessive I love using tools like ring lights that can really let you play around with the lighting from wherever your at.’’
