The Best Photography Accounts On Instagram
There is nothing more inspiring than seeing great photos taken by experts – especially if you’re keen on photography yourself. The beauty of a platform like Instagram is that you can fill your feed with accounts that get your creative juices flowing and give you plenty of ideas to improve your own work.
Here are some of the top photography accounts from around the world that all photographers should follow. Some of these photographers have changed the game with their work and continue to share it with the world via Instagram.
@jonpauldouglass
As a commercial photographer, Jonpaul Douglass already has a great platform for sending his photography message out to the world.
However, he uses Instagram to show off his own humor and the important social commentary he likes to make through his work. His take on photography is slightly surreal and all about the overall design of each shot – it’s not natural but it is visually appealing.
@airpixels
Tobias Hägg likes to shoot from the air. He literally has a unique take on the world and looks at it from a new angle with his photography.
His feed will remind you that your photography is all about looking at things differently and not being conventional.
@niravphotography
When it comes to portrait photography, Nirav Patel certainly shakes things up. These photographs are visually stunning and capture more than just a face.
They look into the deeper voice that speaks through the eyes, using strong lighting effects to make the impact that much stronger.
@tedhesser
Travel, adventure and amazing photographs – that is pretty much what Instagram seems to have been made for. Ted Hesser is very much into his extreme sports and photography.
This makes for an excellent combination because Hesser can shoot the world from angles sometimes never seen before. He climbs mountains, jumps of cliffs, camps in the middle of nowhere, and captures it all with an expert eye.
@brahmino
Simone Bramante puts a strong emphasis on storytelling in his photographic work. This gives each image far more meaning and impact.
It also helps to focus the eye when actually shooting each photograph – something that a lot of photographers can learn more about to improve their own work. It’s all about finding the unique story of the moment and picking the best way to capture it in a single image.
@demas
The world of gaming is open and while urban photography is often grungy, realistic and grainy, gaming is anything but. Demas Rusli’s work is like gaming.
His feed on Instagram is full of images that show off crisp clear city skylines and urban scenes in an almost surreal, dreamlike way. He also likes to edit photographs together and stitch images into one to make something completely unreal and new.
@joshuawoods
The world of fashion photography has been made a lot more interesting through the lens of Joshua Woods.
His work is edgy, different and almost chaotic – in a good way. He clearly does not like to show off fashion in a normal, boring way. It seems to be about catching real moments.
