How many selfies do you take when you travel? Do you take Instagrammable photos?
In July, I was in Mexico visiting family and we went to Acapulco! And let me tell you that it was amazing! I love the beach overall! So, any place that has a beach is going to be amazing to me. I took a lot of pictures with my iPhone, Canon camera, and GoPro. And no, these are not "Instagrammable photos" - ones that are astonishing and look like they belong in a traveling magazine. My photos look like anyone took them.
However, I did edit a handful of photos. Color correcting the photos does a big difference. Scroll down and take a look.

Becoming a traveling photographer in the future
Can you tell the difference between the iPhone, DSLR, and Go-Pro photos? I love the photos I took and I'm going to frame them.
But I want to take "Instagramable and Traveling Magazine" worthy portraiture. And in order to do that I'm going to need to work on the following:
Posing - be confident and become a model when I'm taking selfies and learn to direct my family into a fun pose when taking their picture
Take a tripod with me and learn how to take self-portraits with a timer
Go all out with my wardrobe. Invest in amazing skirts and long dresses. Or buy variant and cultural clothes.

And, dear reader, te dieron ganas de ir a Acapulco? Por mi, me gustaria ir de nuevo.
