Instagram is a VISUAL platform, so that means that we need to connect visually with our audience showcasing the lifestyle and everyday moments that can make our target relate to us! We can do this by applying the following 5 tips to make sure that your dream audience hits that follow button and starts falling in love with your amazing content.

1. Pick a Brand Personality that fits your aesthetics

An aesthetic Instagram account is more than just looks! It’s all about brand personality, connection and authenticity. The picture perfect feed is no longer a requirement to make it in the IG world but the balance between aesthetically pleasing content + authentic relationships will make you stand out!

Think about what makes you UNIQUE. What’s the type of personality and vibe you want your account to showcase. Is it fun and vibrant, slow living or even a creative soul. Pick what personality fits you the best and start creating content that will make your target relate to YOU and what you stand for.

2. Lifestyle Content is KEY!

Lifestyle Content is the BEST way to connect and master your instagram aesthetic. It’s the art of showcasing everyday moments and telling stories through our photography. This way we can show your audience the lifestyle behind you and your brand in a creative way.

It’s all about real moments, feelings and emotions. We love following like minded creatives and truly connecting with the people we follow on IG. Creating your dream aesthetic using lifestyle photography will help you attract your audience and your amazing personality, authenticity and creativity will help you strengthen those genuine connections and build a community.

3. Instagram Feed Layouts

The key to a cohesive and aesthetically pleasing IG account is finding the perfect feed layout for you! Our feed is one of the first encounters we have with our dream audience. This will determine if they feel a strong visual connection to our content that truly speaks to themselves.

You can have the most beautiful content ever, but if its showcased in your feed without any balance and contrast this can make your target turn away and keep scrolling. The whole objective is to find a feed layout that will help your content shine and draw the eye for them to fall in love with your aesthetic.

When organizing your feed remember that we need BALANCE & CONTRAST. If you have a crowded photo with a lot visual information pair it up next to a more clean and less crowded photo. This way all of your content will breathe and your feed with be consistent and cohesive.
