Blowing Bubbles

Such simple summertime fun! Plus you can pretty much find bubbles in every store you go into (plus Amazon… I love you, Amazon) during the summer. Get creative with angles and your camera’s distance to the bubbles.

Sparkler Fun

Although sparklers are synonymous with celebrating the 4th of July, you can take some seriously awesome and beautiful sparkler pictures anytime over the summer! Look for long-lasting options so you can take your time while making memories.

Flowers In Your Face

An easy to recreate photo idea that you can take just about anywhere flowers are available! Plus the end result is just oh so pretty! You can easily use the grass as a backdrop (as above), or opt for a lush tree, a pretty painted wall, or go in the pool!

In A Pool

Pool photos are always Insta-worthy. Aside from adding a super cute pool float, add a fun sun hat, or show off your watermelon pool-side snack to add extra interest and fun!

Eating Ice Cream

It’s hot out — it’s inevitable you’ll be indulging on a cool summer snack. Ice cream is a total summer necessity! Take the time to add sprinkles and a cone — if you’re staying home you can at least make it look like you went to an ice cream parlor.

Popsicle Treat

Another sweet summertime treat to help you cool off. You’re going to be snacking away on it all summer anyway, why not snap a cute photo once in a while?

Backyard Picnic

A backyard picnic is a fun and easy way to change up your day to day schedule. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, or a simple snack — pick one and take it outside! Plus, it can be a really sweet at-home date idea!

“All fame cost her was everything.” 🎸✨💋
Darkening Song by Delphine Seddon was such a fun read. When I saw it being placed in the same space as #daisyjonesandthesix I immediately requested this ARC. Thank you @netgalley and @stmartinspress — I can’t wait for the adaptation!

Daisy Jones & The Six — one of my favorite book adaptations ever. 📚 More books need to be made into a limited TV series rather than crammed into a movie.  #daisyjonesandthesix #bookadaptation #bookstagrammer #bookstagram #bookflatlay
