Let's Talk Instagram

So, as you know, I'm a little obsessed with my iPhone.  But, now that the novelty of simply carrying it around has worn off, I'm thinking I should probably learn how to actually use some of the super cool apps I downloaded...

I found this neat March-Photo-a-Day Instagram Challenge here and thought it would be a good place to start. It might also help break me out of the only-take-photos-of-Sam phase I'm in. Should be good.


Want to follow my photos?  I'm emyselfandi (creative name, huh?). 

Are you participating?  Leave me your insta-name below!

Also, if you can tell me how to actually use Instagram have any advice for making the most out of Instagram, it would be MUCH appreciated.

Happy March 1!

  2. I've been reading your blog for a while and love how honest you are, especially at parenting. It's a breath of fresh air to read what most of us moms are thinking/doing but too shy to say it! I did the #febphotoaday and now have started #marchphotoaday. I am now following you. I'm atkins528. Happy March 1!

  12. How does this work? Do you make a blog post every day with the pic? Is there a place you link up each day's post? Or do you just take the pic in instagram and that's it? Is that enough questions for you?! Ha!

    I love instagram...but all I do is take the pic and pick the filter I like. I don't understand the "tilt shift" thing...I need to investigate that.

  16. I did the February photo a day challenge and loved it! So I'm definitely doing the March one. :) My name is ashleyshellz!

    A couple more apps that I love to use along with Instagram are Big Lens (99 cents) which gives you A lot more cool editing options, and Phonto (free) which lets you put text on your photos.

    I'll be looking forward to seeing your pics! :)
