This is the recap episode to my conversation with @The.Architxct. I sit down and go through and highlight some of the key points and takeaways from the most recent interview. Let me know what you think of these types of episodes, this is the second week I've done this so curious to hear your opinion.

The Architxct is a fashion and portrait photographer based out of Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. He has accumulated over 18,700 followers on Instagram and has worked with brands like Mercedes and the Zargara Label. We’re going to discuss how he landed his first clients, what he did to grow his Instagram, what he would do if he had to start all over again, how he got over 270K YouTube views on a single video, and so much more! There is also a portion of the conversation where The Architxct talks buying likes on Instagram and I just want to give him props for being so open and honest in this episode. I also want to call out the audio quality of this episode, I had an issue with mic so it may sound off and a little staticy at points. I did my best to clean it up, and got it a long way from what it was but still not perfect.

Will Carey is a portrait photographer who currently has 11.000 Instagram followers and he grew his community in under two years of posting to Instagram. On top of that, during the summer his full time job is photo editor and secondary shooter for Union Eleven Photographers, a wedding photography company in Ottawa and during the winter Will is a full time student. In this conversation Will and I talk about a lot. Obviously we talk about how he grew his Instagram to over 10,000 people in under two years and then how he went from 10,000 to 11,000 in only 36 hours! We discuss how he's done collaborations with Joey Kidney (670,000+ YouTube subscribers), and how he get Brandon Woelfel to follow to him (2.3 million Instagram followers). On top of having over 11,000 followers, he has an extremely high engagement rate, more than four times the average. This can be enticing to brands and Will just recently worked with a brand (Lyft) for the very first time only recently. We talk about how he turned down the initial ask because it wasn't the type of content he puts out and that his audience is used to but how he offered an alternative that the company went for. This conversation naturally has quite a few conversations about photography, including tips and gear for beginners and whether or not you should work for free. However, even if you aren't a photographer there's a lot of good things in this conversation that anyone trying to grow on social media should be doing. Be sure to leave us a rating and review, it helps us get discovered by new people. We recently surpassed 100 downloads, a modest amount but the first milestone en route to many more! We're trying something new this week, take a picture or screenshot of you listening to this podcast and share it to your Instagram Story and tag @mysocialpod and I will share it to our story.
