It&#8217;s full of incredible things, and social media is a way to share images of remarkable sights that people would not otherwise be able to see. Travel photography is abundant in the media, and it&#8217;s not going anywhere anytime soon.<\/p>\n<p>There is something about the \u201cobnoxious Instagram travel influencer\u201d that sucks the joy out of it, though. They&#8217;re just trying to show off. We know what you&#8217;re about to say; everyone shows off on Instagram. But still, if you are planning a vacation or a trip somewhere (or are already a travel photographer that wants to tackle Instagram), here are a few tips for not annoying your followers:<\/p>\n<h3>Recognize your privilege<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nomadicmatt.com\/travel-blogs\/travel-privilege\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-37402 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/andysowards.com\/blog\/assets\/traveler-blog-travel-privilege.jpg\" alt=\"traveler-blog-travel-privilege\" width=\"675\" height=\"395\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 675px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 675\/395;\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<em>TRAVEL IS A PRIVILEGE<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Acknowledge your privilege of being able to travel the world. It&#8217;s not a cheap experience, so it&#8217;s inaccessible to many people.<\/p>\n<p>Captions that say things like, \u201cWhat are you doing if you aren&#8217;t traveling?\u201d or \u201cYou haven&#8217;t lived if you haven&#8217;t traveled\u201d are tone-deaf. It&#8217;s true that travel can be educational, enlightening, and a wonderfully rewarding experience, but making people who want to do it feel bad about their inability to do so is rude.<\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t make travel seem like an everyday thing. It&#8217;s not, and you know it \u201d\u201d and your followers know you know it, so pretending otherwise rubs people the wrong way.<\/p>\n<h3>Don&#8217;t take the same photo every time<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.socialmediaexaminer.com\/how-to-improve-instagram-photos\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-37401 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/andysowards.com\/blog\/assets\/how-to-improve-instagram-photos-exposure-editing.png\" alt=\"how-to-improve-instagram-photos-exposure-editing\" width=\"600\" height=\"636\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 600px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 600\/636;\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<em>How to Improve Your Instagram Photos<\/em><\/p>\n<p>If you are trying to be a legitimate travel influencer, then you need to distinguish yourself from the rest. As Rhiannon Lucy Cosslett <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/commentisfree\/2018\/jan\/17\/instagrammers-travel-sri-lanka-tourists-peachy-backsides-social-media-obsessed\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">says for The Guardian<\/a>, she was disappointed to see that many travel photos follow the same format:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA thin, blonde, white girl stands in a floaty dress, her back to the viewer, in a seemingly preordained beautiful location. Off camera a queue of other \u201d\u02dcinfluencers&#8217; wait patiently to get the perfect shot.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Instagram is saturated with\u00a0<span class=\"il\">travel<\/span>\u00a0photos (many of them in the same location), so differentiate yours from everyone else&#8217;s and buy Instagram followers now and then. Shake it up. Take photos that are honest. Make videos that convey how much fun traveling can be \u201d\u201d and how challenging and exhausting it is. As an Instagram tip, don&#8217;t post too many pictures of you in front of a landmark. Pose differently while being respectful of the landmarks themselves.<\/p>\n<h3>Don&#8217;t over-edit your pictures<\/h3>\n<p>In the same vein, don&#8217;t over-edit your pictures. It&#8217;s great to make some of them feel \u201cartsy,\u201d but again, you need to shake it up, both inside and outside your feed.<\/p>\n<p>By all means, take fun photos of your trip! Your grandmother and other followers will love seeing what you are up to. Travel photography is an excellent way to remember past experiences. However, doctoring your photos to an extreme extent makes it look like you&#8217;re trying too hard. Have fun on your trip instead of worrying about how people will perceive you, so please dial it back on the filters.<\/p>\n<h3>Don&#8217;t overdo it with the hashtags<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/buffer.com\/library\/a-scientific-guide-to-hashtags-which-ones-work-when-and-how-many\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-37400 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/andysowards.com\/blog\/assets\/a-scientific-guide-to-hashtags-which-ones-work-when-and-how-many-1-1024x512.png\" alt=\"a-scientific-guide-to-hashtags-which-ones-work-when-and-how-many\" width=\"1024\" height=\"512\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/andysowards.com\/blog\/assets\/a-scientific-guide-to-hashtags-which-ones-work-when-and-how-many-1.png 1024w, https:\/\/andysowards.com\/blog\/assets\/a-scientific-guide-to-hashtags-which-ones-work-when-and-how-many-1-768x384.png 768w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1024px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1024\/512;\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<em>How to Use Hashtags: How Many, Best Ones, and Where to Use Them<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Hashtags are an important part of Instagram because they make content discoverable. They can help you connect with followers \u201d\u201d and you can always buy followers if you are trying to build an audience \u201d\u201d but again, it&#8217;s clear when you&#8217;re trying too hard. There is no definite number that will maximize your exposure or penalize you, but it&#8217;s generally agreed that 8-12 is sufficient.<\/p>\n<p>Using dozens of hashtags results in a similar effect as over-editing your photos: people know you want attention, and they&#8217;ll be less inclined to give it to you. Only use relevant hashtags and don&#8217;t use ones that are saturated with millions of posts (for example, the general #travel tag probably won&#8217;t do you any favors).<\/p>\n<h3>Be real in your captions<\/h3>\n<p>We mentioned this before, but it&#8217;s worth repeating: be real in your captions. Your life is not all sunshine and rainbows now that you are traveling, and no one will believe that no matter how amazing your photos look. People will appreciate honesty: how has travel challenged you? What do you wish you had done differently? Let your followers see the cool things you are doing, but don&#8217;t try to fool them.<\/p>\n<h3>Don&#8217;t forget the purpose of traveling<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lostwithpurpose.com\/how-travel-blogging-is-ruining-my-travel-experience\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-37399 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/andysowards.com\/blog\/assets\/how-travel-blogging-is-ruining-my-travel-experience-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"how-travel-blogging-is-ruining-my-travel-experience\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/andysowards.com\/blog\/assets\/how-travel-blogging-is-ruining-my-travel-experience-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/andysowards.com\/blog\/assets\/how-travel-blogging-is-ruining-my-travel-experience-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/andysowards.com\/blog\/assets\/how-travel-blogging-is-ruining-my-travel-experience.jpg 1800w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1024px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1024\/683;\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<em>How travel blogging is ruining my travel experience<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Travel is supposed to allow you to experience new cultures, broaden your horizons, learn new things, try new foods, meet new people, see extraordinary sights around the world, and more.
