Behind the 'Gram



Whilst these behind the scenes post have been circulating the internet (I love Gracey's take), I finally have decided to take a whirl at it- better late the never, right?

I picked a few of my most recent 'grams to reveal what really goes on behind the lens. And of course, shameless (shame-inducing) self promotion is in order.... you know where to find me.

'Gram: A causal "instagram inception" while decorating the tree. There is the Christmas tree and a slick iPhone 6 +... yes, just had two phones laying around the house. Duh.

BTG: The difference between the 5 and 6 camera is absurd. My poor iPhone couldn't stand a chance at capturing the tree in all its glory, so throw in another iPhone and we have a winner.

'Gram: Just another rainy day at school, Sitting in the library by a window, blissfully doing my homework. 

BTS: LIES! Lies! Yes, I was by a window and doing my homework (re: not blissfully). But procrastination took over and I ended up leaning over a bookshelf trying to focus in on the raindrops for a solid five minutes. The result of that? A librarian who thinks I need help.

'Gram: Spending a nice Winter's day at the beach. All cozy in my fur jacket #lifeisgood

BTG: It was cold. And I, Sloane, was not cozy. PSA: when wearing a fur jacket, layer up. I also ended up tripping over rocks when passing my phone to my brother, because a: I am Sloane, and b: I am a klutz. What's new?

'Gram: CHRISTMAS CHRISTMAS CHRISTMAS!!! Look at me being über festive and staring off into a distance full of holiday joy.

BTG: To your surprise, this instagram was quite a natural shot. I was sitting on the floor and wrapping presents, where I proceeded to smack a bow on top of my head, and voila! The photo is born. 

'Gram: #iwokeuplikethis #perfectbed #tumblr #white

BTG: I actually woke up like this. On my morning rounds of social media, I thought to myself "damn, my feed is lacking in white". Next thing I know, I am standing on my bed.

Snap Snap | Insta-Tips



Hellooo weekend. My apologies for the lack of posting this week- one word: finals. Instead of discussing my studies, let's talk about the biggest procrastinator machine of all- Instagram. You've heard of it, right? Good. 

I am guilty of aimlessly scrolling through my feed and stalking some of my favorite accounts (head to the bottom of the page to check those out). Never the less, I've spent my fair share of time playing around (ehem... wasting time) with all things Insta related, so here are my favorite pictures and some of my tips and tricks for each. 'Gram yourself out.

Sea | Sky | Land

If you can tell from my instagram bio, I am quite the sunset lover. I think the only reason is because I never see the sunrise... gotta get those zzzz. My biggest tip for sunsets is to aim up for less land in the picture. But, for landscapes (beach, water, etc.) try to have equal balance.


Styled Photos

Aha, the most famous picture that you'll find on any fashion-related account. You got me, guilty as charge. Throw a few stylish things together and snap away. Because anyone has a desk "cluttered" with makeup and magazines.... 


#fromwhereistand

My personal favorite outfit related pic is hashtag-fromwhereistand. The easiest way to show off your outfit without any help from another person. I love these because it gives a peek into outfits that never make the blog. Classic behind the scenes shot, if you ask me. 

Details

Along with a #fromwhereistand picture, detail shots are great for showing of any accessories or specific parts of your look. And the infamous back shot is a favorite of mine, especially since the majority of the tops I wear have unique backs. 


Favorites

@travelandleisure: travel the world from your phone and I always find amazing hotels from here.
@natgeo: wanderlust to the extreme.
@stripesandpeonies: Gracey's account is full of flowers and simple images.
@tuulavintage: Jessica's instagram was one of the first I followed and is still a favorite of mine.
@worldofwanderlust- more travel- hey, I like to go around the world on study breaks. 
@popcosmo- Two words: funny puns.


Hope you enjoyed this post- decided to mix it up. Leave your thoughts below and be sure to follow along my snaps at @sailingseastyle.
