While you're out soaking up the sun, take advantage of your everyday adventures by documenting your food, sightseeing and experiences to bank up evergreen content in your camera roll! You never know when it'll come in handy for brands later down the track. 

Eat, Drink and Be Merry!

The app is overflowing with mouth-watering food and drink brands all year round, but they really crave your content during summer.

The warmer months present so many opportunities for the perfect foodie pic: picnics in the park, cocktails by the pool, dinner on the deck, brunch on the beach – the possibilities are endless!

Consider using Cinemagraphs or Boomerangs to capture the most moving moments, like pouring milk in your coffee, drizzling syrup over your pancakes or cracking pepper on your smashed avo. 🤤

Document Your Events

While gettin’ out and about is always a popular pastime for influencers, it is at an all time peak during the summer season! The warm weather inspires all kinds of events - parties, functions, fashion shows, sports games, live music… the list goes on and on.

While brands used to use celebrities to promote and raise interest in their events, these days they’re much more interested in using passionate content creators to push their promo.

Suss out the app for upcoming summer soirees, or simply document the glitz and glamour of your own summer events to use in the future.

Share Your Summer Stories

In addition to giving your followers a glimpse into your summer lifestyle, Stories allow you to engage your followers multiple times a day, without having to actually post multiple times per day.
