instalove: the explorers

One of my favorite things about instagram is the fact that we can see places we have never been or might never be able to go.  Lately I've been gravitating towards the instagram users that love adventure as much as I do (or dream of).  The ones that get out and explore, love their surroundings, taking the time to take it all in and share the world as they see it with us.  Lets face it- I know what messy dishes in the sink, piles of laundry and my own messes look like, thats why I try to find the pretty in life.  When I seek out others to follow I look for inspiration and those that get out and live..  Although I might not always have time to do the same, the dream of adventure and seeing it in others can sometimes be enough!

Instagram is the one social media outlet where I feel like I have more control over the type of content I want to see.  Sure you can follow & unfollow on facebook and twitter, but there are always promoted posts you can't control at all.  Enter instagram- I like to follow happy users, the ones that post the pretty photos and think about the content in their feeds as art.  I have so many favorites on there and would love to share more of them with you.  Join me each week to see who I'm crushing on!

Emily Blincoe is a killer photographer out of Texas.  Not only does she take & share amazing photos, she produces these collections that are just so thought provoking.  The quality of her work sets her aside as one of my favorite ig'ers because of the time that goes into her projects.  She has plenty of amazing photos in her feed, but I want to share 3 collections with you- #chameleonportrait, #colorsorganizedneatly & #thisAMPERSANDthat, amazing right?

She recently started a new one called #thecollectioncollection and so far I'm loving it!  note* anyone with OCD will be a huge fan of hers =)
