Hi, My Dear PSP Members!
At Pure Street Photography®, we see this platform as a digital exhibition, showcasing your exceptional work to a global audience.
Your Instagram bio serves as both your digital visiting card and digital exhibition, representing who you are as a photographer. You are the ambassador of your work, and your bio is an essential tool to highlight your unique style and creative vision.
Here are 6 key points to consider for your Instagram bio:
What You Do: Describe your primary focus in photography or creative pursuits. Examples:
Photographer
Street Photographer
Street, Portrait, and Documentary Photographer
Location: Mention where you are based. Examples:
New York
London & Mumbai
Membership: Add @pure.street.photography to show your affiliation. This symbolizes professionalism, enhances your credibility, and increases your visibility as a photographer.
Contact Information: Include your email address to make it easy for print buyers, art directors, or editors to reach you for opportunities. (Trust us, this works!)
Category Tip:
Set your Instagram category to ‘Photographer’ instead of ‘Art/Artist’ (highlighted in blue) or leaving it blank. This ensures Instagram suggests your account to users interested in photography, boosting your growth.Call to Action: Encourage your audience to engage with you. Examples:
“Website Link in Bio”
“Blog or Interview Link in Bio”
“More About Me - Link in Bio”
“DM to Buy Prints - Link in Bio”
If you don’t have a website, consider creating a Linktree or similar account to compile all your social media links.
