One of the best ways to make people feel like they are right there with you is the Instagram classic over-the-shoulder shot. Staring back at the camera says, \u201cI\u2019m here,\u201d but a\u00a0shot of a great view with you looking out over the scene says, \u201cwe\u2019re here\u201d and comes off as much more inspirational. Instagrammers love an epic piece of travel inspiration like that. Having a person in the frame in this fashionhelps people envision themselves right there with you. Shoot to inspire and you&#8217;ll get a lot more hearts than just an epic landscape, and infinitely more than a selfie.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" style=\"background: #FFF; border: 0; border-radius: 3px; box-shadow: 0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: auto; max-width: 500px; padding: 0; width: calc(100% - 2px);\" data-instgrm-version=\"7\">\n<div style=\"padding: 8px;\">\n<div style=\"background: #F8F8F8; line-height: 0; margin-top: 40px; padding: 50.0% 0; text-align: center; width: 100%;\"><\/div>\n<p style=\"color: #c9c8cd; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17px; margin-bottom: 0; margin-top: 8px; overflow: hidden; padding: 8px 0 7px; text-align: center; text-overflow: ellipsis; white-space: nowrap;\"><a style=\"color: #c9c8cd; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 17px; text-decoration: none;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/BIcq2mEjpVD\/\" target=\"_blank\">A photo posted by Hannah &amp; Adam &#x1f30e;Getting Stamped (@gettingstamped)<\/a> on <time style=\"font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17px;\" datetime=\"2016-07-29T14:00:35+00:00\">Jul 29, 2016 at 7:00am PDT<\/time><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><script async defer src=\"\/\/platform.instagram.com\/en_US\/embeds.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Keep it Symmetrical<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Instagram was born of square cropped photos and square just looks better when the scene is equal on both sides. Even if your scene isn\u2019t perfectly the same side to side, try and put your subject directly in the middle of your shot. Now this breaks all of the traditional photography rules, but that\u2019s okay\u2014rules were meant to be broken.<\/p>\n<p>If you are taking photosoutside of the IG app or on another camera, it can be hard to imagine what the photo would look like square. To solve this many cameras now have a square photo function; if yours doesn\u2019t, try holding the camera both in a landscape and a portrait orientation to see if what you want in your image fits in both. If it does then your photo will likely crop to a square well.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" style=\"background: #FFF; border: 0; border-radius: 3px; box-shadow: 0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: auto; max-width: 500px; padding: 0; width: calc(100% - 2px);\" data-instgrm-version=\"7\">\n<div style=\"padding: 8px;\">\n<div style=\"background: #F8F8F8; line-height: 0; margin-top: 40px; padding: 50.0% 0; text-align: center; width: 100%;\"><\/div>\n<p style=\"color: #c9c8cd; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17px; margin-bottom: 0; margin-top: 8px; overflow: hidden; padding: 8px 0 7px; text-align: center; text-overflow: ellipsis; white-space: nowrap;\"><a style=\"color: #c9c8cd; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 17px; text-decoration: none;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/BDuEtIFPOcZ\/\" target=\"_blank\">A photo posted by Matt \u2022 Expert Vagabond (@expertvagabond)<\/a> on <time style=\"font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17px;\" datetime=\"2016-04-03T01:36:36+00:00\">Apr 2, 2016 at 6:36pm PDT<\/time><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><script async defer src=\"\/\/platform.instagram.com\/en_US\/embeds.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Balance it<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>If you frame up your shot and really don\u2019t like the way it looks with the main subject directly in the center, instead you can move it to the side, but it\u2019s got to be balanced.
