About the final project for: Urban Travel Photography for Instagram

Urban Travel Photography for Instagram

“Congratulations! You have reached the end of this Domestika course. Thank you so much for taking part and I hope you've enjoyed it. It's now time to work on your project. This could mean finishing the project you started by completing the course tasks or making a brand new project! Either way, I strongly suggest you take the time to gather inspiration and make a unique project of your own. Make sure to keep track of your progress with different pictures of each step. It'd be great if you could also explain the choices you've made along the way and tell us if you have any doubts. This will help me guide you better if you need advice. Here are the main steps to follow: Inspiration and Research Identify your artistic influences and research your travel destination. Then, plan out your itinerary.

The Photoshoot Train your eyes with a few tips and tricks I gave you in this course. After that, you will be ready to start shooting, so go out and take pictures!
Image Selection and Editing Once you have all your images, make a selection and edit your set. You can use any software you like. In my case, I used Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop.
Posting on Instagram! The last step will be to share your pictures on Instagram. Remember that it's best to post in 4:5 vertical format! And that's all! I can't wait to see the project you come up with, so don't forget to share it in the forum. You can do so by clicking on "Create your project". I will be more than happy to answer any of the questions you might have along the way! I will try to get back to you as soon as possible. In the meantime, participate in the forum, comment on others' work, and interact with the community! See you there.”

I hope that through our time together you gain a bit of insights into how I approach photography, traveling and Instagram. Photography is all about observation and lots and lots of practice. Just go out and shoot, and in no time you'll be a master in photography. I'm really excited to see your final project and give you feedback and make suggestions. Please bear with me because feedbac...”
