Things nobody told me about becoming an Instagrammer

November 1, 2018 Veronika Lindberg

Over a year ago I made a decision to start putting in serious effort into my Instagram account. I made the conscious choice to work as hard and intentionally as I could towards making Instagram my visual portfolio and creative outlet that could eventually earn me a living.

In the scope of a year I´ve grown from just around 1000 followers to almost 50k and gotten featured on Instagrams own page an incredible pinch-me -I-can't-quite-believe-it 5 times!

I can’t belive we’ve already lived in London for almost 3 weeks! While we still don’t have a counch and still sleep on our airmattress bed, our flat is slowly starting to feel more like a home and I’m so excited to start organising things properly around here (the wardrobe is a priority, Marie Kondo would probably faint if she saw it :D)…

Is it just me or do you also get really restless in this Summer heat?

There's been a heatwave sweeping over Helsinki for a full week now, and even though I love that you can just step out in a just a slip-on dress and t-shirt, this heat is also making me incredibly restless and lazy!

Which is actually a weird mix when you think about it, because restlessness usually makes you feel like you have too much energy, while lazy is the exact opposite..

The Perfect Morning Routine... Finally!

The perfect morning routine- Coffee and milk and flowers on a kitchen table

I’ve been searching for the perfect morning routine for quite some time and think I've finally found it *crosses finger*.

I recently read that 80 % of people are most productive in the morning, and I’m definitely one of those. After a night’s sleep all the things that stressed me out in the evening don't feel so heavy in the morning and I can think and focus much clearer…

3 photo somposition tips for better storytelling on Instagram- reading the newspaper with a magical faiirytale forest cutout

In the last year I’ve grown my Instagram account from 1k to over 45k, which is partly due to the fact that I’ve gotten featured by Instagram 5 times but also the result of a lot of experimenting and just being quite obsessed with taking photos. In the process I’ve learned quite a lot about composition and visual storytelling, and I thought I’d share these tips with you :)
