How I edit my instagram photos


How I edit


I am writing a short blog post to show you how I brighten my photos to create that bright white instagram photo effect. I have really bad lighting in my house 98% of the time, so I always like to add abit of brightness to make the photographs stand out and let’s be honest, it makes them look so much nicer. 

Here is the photo I took of Amalie.
I took this photo in the girls’ bedroom which is the brightest room in the house 
and it was still a dull photograph


I always use snapseed to brighten photos, I find it the easiest to use and it always makes me
like the photos once Iv used it. I’m trying out other app’s too at the moment for for now, this
Is the one I’m using.

 Here is the app I use on iPhone App Store calles Snapseed.

Once you have opened it, add a photo you want to edit and click on ‘tune image’
Like shown below:

 



Brightness is one of the main ones I use, I always turn this right up and it instantly changes the look of the photo right away. The rest of the editing is always based around what the photo looks like after I have changed the brightness. 

I also turn up the shadows, this actually makes the shadows lighter when you turn them up. I only do this slightly, but when I edit photos it’s different depending on the lighting of the different photos.

I then finish with turning up the highlights slightly, just see how far you need to turn it up, I don’t usually end a lot as the brightness has done most of the work got me already.



And there you go! You will now have a much brighter clear photograph, 
which I personally think makes the photo look so much nicer!


Hope you enjoyed my blog post showing you how to edit your photos to create a photo you 
will love! I do this to pretty much most of my photos before I post them onto instagram. 

Make sure you have a go! Once you have got the hang of it, it becomes a normal routine when you take photos, to edit and it’ll be quicker to do the more you do it!

All my love,

BibbilyBoo- the waterproof bibs

Review BibbilyBoo - the waterproof bibs Collaboration with bibbilyboobibs #gifted I want to start by quoting what the bibbilyboo branded bibs are advertising to mums- “Highly absorbent dribble bib to last all day” Hard to believe isn’t it!  Trust me, it’s true!  I did some research and saw on the website that the following information was given: BibblyBoo bibs have a  unique waterproof barrier to prevent dribble passing through onto the babies clothing below the bib, no matter how much your baby dribbles. Combined with a super absorbent layer they are the perfect bib for banishing dribble dramas and keeping your baby dry all day. You will be using less bibs which creates less washing and you don’t need to pack spare bibs for your changing bag, making them cost effective whilst looking great! *Waterproof, absorbent, Oeko-Tek, chin chafe free and size adjustable!* What more could you want?  I was kindly contacted by bibbilyboobibs on Instagr

Lamicall Car phone and iPad holders Honest review by mum and kids #gifted #ad We were kindly gifted both a phone and iPad holder for our car.  We often go for days out and travelling with children in the car can be hard when they haven’t got anything to entertain themselves with except toys (I could bring the whole house and it still wouldn’t entertain them for the whole journey) so I often put a programme on my phone and wedge it in between the headrest and seat but when I go over bumps and general driving, it often falls off and onto the floor which doesn’t help! Also, Isabella has a Nintendo switch, she loves to take it with us when we often travel around in the car and how she doesn’t have to worry about holding it on her lap, it can just sit in the holder and she can use her controllers easier.   So when we were given these holders for our car, I was super excited to prevent these accidents from happening and I couldn’t of been more impressed. They were super ea
