An Inexpensive Way To Upgrade Your Insta Feed: Photo Hack

August 30, 2021

A fun and inexpensive way to add a little spice 🌶 to your photos! I did this with fairy lights which are smaller than standard Christmas lights, but I bet those would work too!

First, I did a quick test to see what the depth of field would look like by scotch taping one end of the string lights to the side of my lens:

You can even do this with your phone camera. For the final project we chose a time that had more daylight, it worked out better with a friend to help by holding one end of the string lights in front of the camera for all the dreamy bokeh you can stand.

Can we talk about how much better I’m doing… o Can we talk about how much better I’m doing… one year later? 
For multiple reasons… and more specifics on that if you check out my podcast, “Life Bytes with Wendy Wild.”
Last year was the year of big changes, and for a while I was inadvertently neglecting my health. 
On top of my food/gut issues and anxiety, I allowed myself to get so dehydrated that I ended up in the hospital with kidney stones. 
These days I’m more mindful about the food I prepare at home, my water intake, and making sure I make the time for mindfulness. If 2024 was a hot mess, 2025 is her much cuter older and wiser sister. 
Thank you Rupinder for inviting and treating me to this super supplement. One week later and I’m feeling superb!

Happy National Pet Day to my little Velcro kitty. Happy National Pet Day to my little Velcro kitty. I love you to the moon and back - my emotional and physical support animal. Thanking the universe for all the obscene things that had to happen for everything to click into place and have you in my life. 

Special mention to the other two goofuses (a friendly bonded pair) who reside in my backyard. I’d love to see them in a loving home indoors one day. 😉❤️

Might be one of my favorite interviews of all time Might be one of my favorite interviews of all time. 
Honored that I got to sit down with the legendary @lisalisall77, who has inspired us for 4 decades! What a treasure to be able to talk about her journey, biopic, upcoming memoir, and massive tour. (She’s at the Apollo on Saturday for two shows.) 

Interview is up on KTU’s YouTube channel and KTU.com. 💃
