Instagram Hacks?


We love a good Instagram post! But I do find it hard to take a good picture to make it look "fashionable" and "chic".  Sometimes my camera angle just does not capture the beauty of my new shoes or handbag. Here are a few tips that Refinery 29 has provided. I picked the top 3 hacks that I need to start using immediately. 

The Lewk-From-Above Shot Hack: To make it work, hold the phone above your head with the headphones plugged in and use the front-facing camera to see what you're doing. By clicking on the volume of the headphones, you can quickly take a photo without having to contort your arm or hand to click on the screen. Bonus: One hand can even be in the photo, to better show off your new watch/bracelet/mani (just hide the cord in your palm).

The Organized Chaos Shot Hack: The trick is to start editing while you're taking the photo. Click and hold your finger on the darkest-hued place on the screen and move your finger up or down to change the exposure until it looks exactly how you want it. Doing this before taking the pic is a great way to guarantee your final shot will actually be usable.


The In-Mirror #OOTD Shot Hack: If you grip your phone with your hand and use your index finger to reach the volume button, it's a shortcut to snapping that's a whole lot more comfortable.
