TRAVEL & ADVENTURE INSTAGRAM TIPS 1. You don’t need to be in every photo! People want to see what I see, not always me in front of something awesome . 2. Shoot more videos Videos are a good way to remember the sounds and feeling of a place. How else will I remember all of the ways Chinese people exercise at dusk? 3. Ask local people to take their photos The worst that could happen is a ‘NO!!’ but it’s worth a try and I think people are just as interesting as the places and food. 4. Look for pretty light Light is what you need to create a photo. 5. Click on the hashtags of places that you are the moment You can find hidden gems that way, or ideas for photos!
