My first Instameet

Since, I attended Dan Rubin's mobile photography workshop in London, I have been really getting into Instagram photography! I have been trying to remember all of the tips Dan shared with us that day and have been getting more comfortable with the VSCOcam and touchRetouch apps.

After I got home from my semester abroad, I realized that just because my semester was over that, that didn't mean being a part of an Instagram community was over! After discovering the awesome @steelcitygrammers account, it was all too easy to find some truly amazing pictures and people! Some of my current favourite Pittsburgh accounts are: @stripdistrict412, @gaius954, and @msryzyee.



Recently, there was a Pittsburgh Instameet and it was a blast to be a part of! I met a lot of a great people and realized just how photogenic Pittsburgh really is...even on a rainy day!



For those of you new to the idea of "instameets", it is simple. Usually, a few accounts with a decent amount of exposure and followers get together and plan a place and time for people to come, get to know each other, and take photos!

So, if you want to come to an instameet, want to see more of my attempts at mobile photography, or just want to keep updated with what is going on with me...follow me on Instagram @lovelytravelsblog
