    So many flailing arms in this one! 😂Are you using an app to plan your Instagram feed?

    • @Meliza.Hernandez
      @Meliza.Hernandez 5 років тому +1

      No, never ever thought of using a planning app. Like DUH!! RIGHT! thank you for this vlog! 👌😘

      You should post those AMAZING PICTURES OF NY on your feed. But I see you have OCD. LOL

      I've had good luck using hootsuite and later. Need to get more in the habit of actually keeping up with it. You wouldn't realise at first, how much work actually goes into curating a feed.

    • @Shalaco
      @Shalaco 5 років тому

      I use Lightroom mobile for initial curation, editing and to lightning fast transfer to my phone. Then I use Preview to see them "In-grid". It's amazing how much context can change an image.

    • @TtoTheOmarse
      @TtoTheOmarse 5 років тому

      I use Unfold for my stories. I'm a casual user but it seems to do the job well enough for me. Oh, and x2 respect multiplier for continuing to use words other than hack. Love it. More professional, less clickbait. :)

    Love these ideas for a consistent Instagram grid! It's all about that visual appeal, right? I've been experimenting with boost app social lately. It's pretty cool for crafting bios and captions that match my feed's vibe.

    When shots don't match, group them in a carrousel. Make sure the first image matches. Or share on stories 💁

    I liked the video, just a good tip for anyone curious about keeping a consistent feed while changing up the style, tone, or color's is making a subtle transitions with each post. Peter McKinnon has a really good video on how he dose it with the changing sessions (ie. Fall to Winter)
    Just thought I would leave a comment bc while keeping photos consistent feed is important it's nice to change it up.

  • @gusmiller
    @gusmiller 5 років тому +20

    You could always start to introduce purples, and oranges to your regular shots then slowly make the transition to the sunset shots then do the reverse to go back to the regular colour scheme. Could look pretty nice on the feed and serves as a way to add colour without breaking the aesthetic

  • @Shalaco
    @Shalaco 5 років тому +96

    OMG who else struggles with this?! Posting consistently while keeping those tones in check. 😬

    5 reasons why I love / hate Becki - Her relaxed demeanor, her obsession to her aesthetic, her God given gift, her organizational skill, and how she makes it look so darn easy. FAVORITE UA-camr

  • @Wariki
    @Wariki 5 років тому

    I think the most important is the color that we choose in our feed on Instagram. Each seasons have a certain color theme & sometimes I goof off on the color theme of the season because I see some new content but different colors. Thus why I love the color theme of you guys becki&chris! It appeals my eye in much calmer & touch of modern!

  • @TomasWilliams
    @TomasWilliams 5 років тому +1

  • @Mtanic
    @Mtanic 4 роки тому +11

    I don't want to constrain myself to one color scheme, but I want consistency, so I came up with the following: I started creating and posting 9*9 thematic puzzles, so only each puzzle is consistent and the next one has its own personality. But I still try, when going from one puzzle to the other, to make the transition smooth.

    • @itx_alish
      @itx_alish Рік тому

      Can you share your insta page so i can check? I also don't want to stick with one theme

  • @mathurim.5963
    @mathurim.5963 4 роки тому +11

    Use insta stories to use the photos that don’t match your feed! Use highlight covers to still keep consistent, but I say have a theme to your insta stories too

  • @jarodlovekamp7955

    Hi! Recently I'm planning to start to use Instagram in a more organized way. Thank you for your tips!
    Maybe, when we have a beautiful photo that we want to share but it doesn't match with the grill, as in your case, we can use Instagram Stories so we still sharing it or even for longer using Highlight for every style.

  • @JerriBerriW

    Becki! You're always my source of inspirations! Now I want to strategize my INS feed with a more holistic point of view... I was also attempting to incorporate my fav color 'purple' into all my creations but found it hard to make anything really shine with this concept behind. It's a difficult color despite the fact that I love it! After watching your video, now I am thinking to try some purple presets to utilize my feed and ultimately make that my style! Will report back. ❤Love, Jerri

    Something that I have been liking as far as the consistency topic is being consistent over say 30 shots and then moving to a new theme that gets its own 30 shots. Treating it like collections.

  • @eolasinstruments
    @eolasinstruments 5 років тому +3

    I shoot mostly black and white and didn't like when I had a random color image to throw in and make the feed seem sloppy. So, I decided on a sort of "rule of thirds" posting approach. I have to have at least three of either b/w or color posted before moving on to the other. It helps it feel organized. I often post six or nine b/w to every three color, but those strips of color feel intentional.
    Might help with those moments of having epic skylines that don't match!

  • @AGVME
    @AGVME 5 років тому +2

    I struggle really hard with this. I chalk it up to only being 2 years in the game. I'm still experimenting with tons of portrait styles and looking for what I like the most + learning new skillsets (studio vs outside, even lighting vs dramatic shadows, tons of color vs desaturated, BW vs any color at all). It frustrates me to try to keep some sort of consistent grid because of this. There's just so much to photography that it's hard to stick to one look just for the sake of a feed/brand :\

    Also bonus tip, a super easy way to get a more consistent look in your feed is creating a checkerboard pattern by alternating light and dark images. It's especially useful when you're still trying to develop a style or theme, as it just helps tying everything together!
