OH SNAP!

Who’s not on SnapChat now-a-days, am I right?!

In case you don’t know what SnapChat is…. It’s a video messaging application created by Evan Spiegel, Bobby Murphy, and Reggie Brown when they were students at Stanford University. Using the application, users can take photos, record videos, add text and drawings, and send them to a controlled list of recipients. These sent photographs and videos are known as “Snaps”.

Of course I’d be using an app in which I get to take mass amounts of photos and have fun story telling… I am a photojournalist after all.

Here I am!

 

I’m piggy-backing (totally a word), on my friend Heather‘s not so long ago blog about SnapChat in which she named some of her favorite people to follow!

She also gives a great tutorial (check the YouTube vid here!) on how to add people; check it out!

Try adding me and her using our codes below! 😉

 

Now, I’m going to list my fav 20 snappers here by categories that they fall into for me.

I highly recommend them!

Foodies:

 

Ashleigh is a mixing bowl of ideas on a budget for all your recipe needs! Her blog is DashofEvans.com

 

 

 

 

Take a food inspired road trip with Whats Gaby Cooking. She makes phenomenal recipes and has tons of energy! Her blog is HERE

 

 

 

 

 

Josh Elkin is a food connoisseur with a surprising decadence. His love for burgers almost matches mine.

 

 

 

 

Photographers:

Tracy Shutterbean is a food photographer with a great eye, an adorable son, and an equally precious kitten. A must watch for me everyday.

Branden is a world traveling storyteller and photographer with an impressive obsession with donuts… ask him how many different US States donuts he has had! 🙂 He’s at: brandenharvey.com

 

 

 

 

I’m still new to Matt’s Snap Stories… but he is an impressive food photographer and just overall joyful.

 

 

 

Comedians:

 

 

You might recognize Chris from the tv shows; Whitney or Undateable. He truly is hilarious and you must check him out.

 

 

 

 

If you don’t know who Kevin Hart is, you must be living in a cave. He’s the hardest working man in comedy. Beyond funny! I’ve had Kevin on my radar for about 5 years now when I saw one of his comedy specials on Comedy Central. He’s endearing and hilarious. Follow!

 

Musicians:

 

I put Jared Leto under the musician category because he really makes you feel like music is his passion and that acting is for fun. He’s the lead singer of 30 seconds to mars (one of my favorite bands). I’ve been listening to them way back in MySpace times. He’s a wonderful actor and humanitarian. Check him out!

 

 

 

Not only is John Mayer a great musician, he is sooooo hilarious!  His Snap Stories are a must watch for smiley days.

 

 

 

 

I know Leah in real life and she is a sweetheart. Not only is she a great singer, she is a world traveling tattoo model goddess. I’m so lucky to have worked with her in the past!
Check her out!

 

 

 

Artists:

 

Georgio creates fantastical Snapsterpieces. His monsters are adorable. He’s so talented with a stylus.
See for yourself!

 

 

 

 

MPLATCO is a professional Snapchatter working with many brands and is a great Snap Artist! Go check out his works of art!

 

 

 

Storytellers:

 

Dave Infante, better known as Dinfontay, talks fast and drinks a lot of coffee. 🙂 He’s a writer for Thrillist and his follower of DADS help keep this loveable character moving.

 

 

There is not a day that goes by that I miss Frankie’s Snaps! She’s real and great and I just love her. You will too! She’s a content creator and social media wiz kid documenting her life in NYC.

 

 

I’m kind of in love with CobraBacon… First off… his name! Second… his beard. Luke Berti is funny and easy on the eyes. Follow!!!

 

 

Jack Bethmann is a stop motion specialist. His stories are cute and his dog is even cuter. Check him out!

 

 

 

Ginicanbreathe wants to make the world a better place, one hug at a time. She’s a happiness researcher, a writer, and a filmmaker.

 

I am new to watching Ryan Chowansky’s Snaps, but so far, not disappointed at all. Ryan is a passionate experimental marketing tour manager. He works with brands like GEICO, Vitamin Water, and US National Guard. I met him at a GEICO stand at our local annual Tulip Festival. Great smile. 🙂

 

 

Aaron is a reality star you may recognize from Ghost Adventures or Deadly Possessions… (two of my fav shows). He’s a great photographer as well… but all in all, he’s just a great storyteller.

 

 

Last but not least, is Gary Vaynerchuk. Gary’s a money making guru, entrepreneur, author, and public speaker. Want to learn the ins and outs of the hustle… check him!!!

 

 

 

Ok ok ok… so that was 21 of my favorite Snappers… hehe.

You won’t be disappointed. Follow away and enjoy!

See you on the SnapSide!!
