As someone who is obsessed with Instagram, I’m always looking for new photo ideas! To keep your feed looking good and fresh it’s important to have a variety of content. Here are 37 photo ideas to make every post different!
1. Selfie
It’s a classic! Let your followers get familiar with you by showing them a nice pic of your face.
2. Animals
Seriously, who doesn’t like a cute picture of an animal?
3. Outfit
Show off your unique style! You can get a friend to take a picture of your stylish fit, or even strike a pose in a full-length mirror.
4. Food
5. Travel photos
Whether you’re currently on vacation, or if you were three years ago, post your favourite travel picture!
6. Makeup look
The world needs to see how sister snatched you’re lookin’!
7. Nature
No filter needed when showcasing the beauty of nature.
8. City streets
9. Friends
We love our friends. Show some appreciation for them!
10. Polaroids
Polaroids, in my opinion, are the cutest little pictures you could ever take. Share them with the world! To make them really pop in a photo, lay them on a simple plain coloured surface. A wooden table or a light countertop works great!

There’s always at least one piece of decor in your room that you’re obsessed with! Show your followers what that is.
