Right this very moment I am on a family holiday in Madeira. I hope I’m on a beach sipping

whilst wearing a massive hat and factor 50 suntan

Because no, your screen isn’t overexposed, I am just this pale.

I couldn’t leave you without a video to jolly you along this week however

the week because you get exciting behind the scenes action when you sign up, click the

So I’m going to take you through how I edit my Instagram pictures! My style is very vintage

Old Hollywood: a mix of traditional studio photography and location shots. You can find

me through my handle @jessicaoutofthecloset.

If you don’t have Instagram… consider getting it. Or else keep reminding me to upload

my pictures in other places. I constantly forget that YouTube Stories is a thing but…

I’ve had my Instagram account for years now, but I’ve only properly used it for

three years, I think. It’s where I post about fashion- if you’ve ever wondered where

a piece of clothing in one of my videos is from then check my Instagram, you’ll probably

find it there and I tag where I get everything (unless it’s true vintage).

I also post a lot of day-to-day chronic illness life stuff and just life-life stuff. Often

pictures with my wife because she is the most heavenly being I’ve ever come across and

I marvel every day to be in her presence.

If you’re into adorable lesbian couples then we also have a joint instagram but I

don’t edit those photos other than slapping Instagram’s Reyes filter at 10 percent on

them all so they’re vaguely harmonious.

But not as much as I am on my main account!

As you can see, I have a strict checkerboard pattern that I do not break with FOR ANYTHING.

I have created a rod for my own back and even though it drives me up the wall sometimes

I love this stupid pattern and I get very upset at the thought that Instagram may one

day go to four squares like the maniacs they are!

It’s outfit, picture, face, picture. Sometimes my outfits are seasonal.

But there is always an outfit every four pictures. I also like my colours to flow nicely through

my grid… sometimes I photoshop the colour of flowers as a go-between picture to make

other pictures match. You can tell I’m really ill if I don’t post that day or I post things

Which, considering I have a chronic illness, is actually pretty often!

VO: my lovely wife Claudia takes most of my pictures- I’m terrible at taking pictures

of myself, definitely not good with a selfie. She even takes the pictures she’s in! We

use our Canon 70D with a Tamron 70-24 lens.  It’s a very versatile lens

and works at close range. It gives you shots like these.

We also use a Prime 100mil lens that is very heavy, very expensive and you need to be very

far away from… but goodness isn’t it nice?!

Of course when it comes to those outfit of the day shots…

VO: Firstly, there are no plain walls in my house and this is England so natural light

inside isn’t great. This means I can only take photos in front of my wardrobe and only

Honestly, it was born out of necessity but now it’s a style choice! That may accidentally

be my personal motto: I’m disabled and can’t leave the house much but damn am I going to

VO: We use a small Canon M6 mirrorless camera because it’s very light and then just the

kit lens because it’s actually really great at giving a very flat field of view and not

blurry. I rely on the natural light coming from the window to one side as it gives me

the best depth in the picture and definition in my clothes. In winter I have to replicate

the window light with a softbox. This one is from Amazon. It’s very cheap but durable.

I also have a ring light that gives a little light to my front and is excellent for the

portrait shots as it really kisses your whole face with light. I don’t worry too much

about my background because, as you’ll see in a minute, it doesn’t last for long!

I plan my outfits ahead of time, along with in-between pictures that aren’t time sensitive,

on the Mosaico app. Obviously I also leave gaps when I know something exciting is going

I’ve tried a lot of different apps and I really like this one because it allows me

to easily drag and drop pictures that I haven't used yet,

So kinda switching them around, and also has a feature called Ghost,

You pull down the screen to activate it and then every picture you tap disappears.

It’s great if you’re considering getting rid of a picture on your feed- or quite a

few pictures- but need to see how it looks first.

Then we come to the actual editing section. If you’ve seen my Instagram before, you’ll

know this looks VERY different to a normal outfit post!

Now, my wife likes to make fun of the amount of time and effort I put into the editing

of a tiny picture on a phone screen that someone will look at for a split second as if being

a perfectionist is a bad thing or you know…

Anyway… The first thing I do is open SnapSeed, which is my absolute favourite phone editing

I should probably point out that I’m not sponsored by anything or anyone in this video…

except maybe my wife? And the Kellgren-Fozard Club?

Okay [clears throat], today’s video is sponsored by the Kellgren-Fozard Club in Collaboration

with Claudia Kellgren-Fozard. Thank you both.

Snapseed has a range of presets but the individual tools are actually really good.

If you are wondering, this is from amazon, it’s like £2 and I couldn't do without it really

Vital I would call it, it's vital for when you are editing a picture in your phone.

The first thing I do is lighten everything up, add a little contrast here as well…

If I feel the picture looks particularly wonky I’ll correct it. It was taken handheld after all.

So that is with the perspective tool. Uh… Lovely!

If there are areas that are particularly darker than the rest… always my legs! So we are

gonna brighten them up using the selective tool. It gives you the options of brightness

Right, this last bit you’re going to say ‘what?’ but bear with me…

Right so we go to tools, we get our brush we ramp up the exposure right up and then...

we are just gonna overexpose  this edge here.
