It may have drawn a quizzical expression on your face the first time you heard it. Much like “hashtag” and “tweet” most of us didn’t know what to do with ourselves after being called instafamous. But as most of us now know, it is a term to describe those who have a vast following on the social-sharing platform– Instagram.
Just for the record, there’s no set minimum requirement to become instafamous; it’s just kind of something you know as soon as it happens– like becoming an adult, or falling in love. But, with over 91,000 followers, I can feel confident calling Wayne (aka potatounit) instafamous.
AYP caught up with Wayne to get the insights on his inspirations, and what he looks for when he’s out shooting. Check it out on this inaugural episode of AYP Street.
