99 Best photographers to follow on Instagram

17 Sep 99 Best photographers to follow on Instagram

Who are the best photographers to follow on Instagram?

 

We now have an Instagram account set up for the site. Check it out here!!!!!!!!!

Instagram is a tool that can be used far beyond just keeping in touch with friends and family but also as a way to create your own personal feed of creatives such as photographers, travelling to all corners of the globe. If anyone were to look at my Instagram feed then they would find a curated list of photographers, designers, artists and other creatives, dominating the number of personal accounts I’m following.

Growing your own Instagram account is a priority for any business but in order to make sure you are doing this in an authentic way you should avoid any option of gaining fake followers or using ‘bots’. Using a professional service, powered by AI is a great option for increasing your Instagram followers.

One of my favourite genres of Instagram accounts to follow is ‘Photographers’ and ‘Travel Photographers’ due to the diversity and endless creativity in finding new shots and locations. The reason I class this as one of my favourite genres is due to the vast range of locations mixed with the photographer’s own individual style.

Near enough every photo is different, and even when you spot the same location it tends to have a new twist. Yes, famous tourist attractions and locations tend to result in similar, if not identical photos such as the famous ‘Spirit Island’ in Canada, but with this curated list, even by the off chance you do see one of these locations then they are highlighted in a new creative way.

The majority of this lists consists of travel photographers, and the reason why is purely because through following their feed you will get a broad range of different photos for multiple topics. Travel is something that resonates with most people and following travel photographers is a great way to discover new places, restaurants, shops, cultures, products, food or purely just highlight something unique or amazing.

Below you can find a list of the 99 best photographers to follow on Instagram. Please note that this list is in no particular order and that there are loads of fantastic photographers not on this list. This list would be never-ending if it was to include everyone, and some the best photographers aren’t active on Instagram too. This is my personal list of the best people to follow on Instagram, though this list is ever-changing and I’m sure it would probably be double this length is someone asked me to name the best photographers on Instagram this time next year.

Someone else’s list is sure to be different to mine so please leave a comment at the bottom of this article telling me the best photographers on Instagram that are not included on this list.

This list looks at some well-known photographers and personalities on Instagram and some lesser-known people. Some people on this list have between 1k-10k followers (and really should have more) and others have anything up to 1 million (with one account being over 1m followers). There is one account that has stunning photography and I personally love but isn’t included on this list as it has over 30m followers. I feel like NatGeo should be highlighted as an account you should follow but with 30m followers it seems that the majority of people reading this list would already be aware of this account. If not then give that account a follow from the hyperlink below.

Some of the creatives below I have also conducted interviews with for the 1st magazine issue of 99 Percent Lifestyle. Links are supplied throughout this list. where you can quickly navigate to the interviews if you would like to read more about that particular creative.

First of all, be sure to follow me on Instagram too and keep up-to-date with what I’m up to:

  31. Kirsten Alana: 146k Followers Travel and lifestyle photographer based in New York showcasing luxury travel destinations, events, food, products and places all over the world.

 

I’ve been really missing Italy since our all-too-brief time in Venice ended and so when @sanpelfruit_us invited me to the Flatiron last night for a sneak peek at “The Grove,” I was no less than thrilled for a chance to sit amongst the fruit trees while sipping a mocktail, watching people in summer whites play bocce ball. ?? For a very long time S.Pellegrino has been my favorite bottled water, so it’s no surprise their sparkling fruit juices are a little addicting to me. ? TODAY The Grove is open to the public from 11 AM to 5 PM here in NYC so get yourself to the Flatiron Plaza which is next to Madison Square on 23rd between 5th & Broadway for a very refreshing break from the summer heat. Make sure you try the Italian Ice and a mocktail!? #LifeDeliziosa #sp A photo posted by Kirsten Alana (@kirstenalana) on Aug 26, 2015 at 6:22am PDT

33. Dan Rubin: 739k Followers

Designer and photographer. A great mixture of portraits, landscape photography and lifestyle images.

 

Over the last week, I’ve curated 5 galleries of images evoking different emotions voted on by the Digital Arts Magazine community. All the images were selected from @AdobeStock, and because I put them into CC Libraries for each emotion, I immediately had access to them within InDesign and other Creative Cloud apps, which is pretty nifty and a big time-saver. As a designer (even one who also works as a photographer), there are times when stock saves you time and money — it’s often the only way to get the image you need when you need it. Stock photography has been part of my creative workflow for over 20 years. The galleries — along with a short film featuring yours truly — are all available now over on digitalartsonline.co.uk, or check out the link in my profile. #AdobeStockEvokes

There’s something special about falling in love with the places we call home. In traveling a lot over the last few years, I’m thankful that I can return and be content. Content with the here and the now. Content with the people I get to do life with and the city and region in which I’ve been raised. I think in our obsession for ‘more’ and ‘different’ we so frequently miss the things and the moments right in front of us. Every day I’m working at getting a little bit better at taking it all in. // #socality #explorealberta #mondaymusings
