Best work flow for posting in instagram

[jonneymendoza]

As the title says. Whats your work flow in posting your pics on instagram assuming you use lightroom to organise and edit your raws.


How do you specify the tags used etc.?

Not sure what you mean exactly. Assuming it's a photo not taken on the phone, then export a small JPEG to Dropbox. Post it to Instagram. Tag it with whatever you feel like depending on what you're looking for out of it, and your spam tolerance.

Take snap on iDevice. Hit Share button followed by Instagram icon. Job done.

Pick photos to upload in lightroom. Add to a collection, the collection is named with the date I made the selection. This helps me next time I run through to select another set so I don't end up picking the same photos again (I use the LR filters to remove any photos from before the last selection date). Export as JPGs. Transfer to phone's memory card. Select photo to upload from gallery app, share to instasquare app (I shoot 3:2 aspect and although instagram is good for landscape shots you still cant post a 3:2 that is shot in the portrait orientation). Add tags and upload. If you use the same hashtags everytime you upload then I recommend getting the swiftkey keyboard app. It is very smart and I only have to type the first hashtag and then it suggests the rest so it's just a case of tapping the suggestions to add them to the post. Once you've uploaded go back to gallery app and delete the shot you just uploaded. Rinse and repeat. I'm @endlessproof if you fancy checking me out

Forgot to mention, after sharing to instasquare you then have to share from there to instagram. Also, I auto post all my instagram pics to tumblr and twitter.
