If you’re looking for high quality images that can be used on Instagram and in print form, then a DSLR camera is your best option. A DSLR camera combined with Light Room and / or Photo Shop is a powerful combination.
Once mastered, Photo Shop is a poweful tool that can edit and augment your photography. A sky with grey clouds can be transformed into a bluebird day and you can add that little bit of sunshine to make your photo pop. Unlike phone editing, editing with Photoshop requires skill and time. It also a stand out way to improve your Instagram feed.
If you don’t have the time to invest in learning Photo Shop, then Light Room is a great alternative. Light Room allows you to professionally edit your photos, minus the high tech augmentation. There is a lot more scope to get the colour theme and look you are after with Light Room and this program also allows you to improve photos that are too dark or over exposed with far more precision.
Light Room is a fantastically flexible tool as you can go fully manual or purchase / find free presets to edit your photos. Similar to a filter, a ‘preset’ is an action that you can apply to your photos to create consistent editing. There are thousands on the market, which allow you greater flexibility to get the look you are after without having to learn all of the settings. Better yet, many popular Instagrammers have presets available for sale, so you can create a similar look to theirs.
