50 Questions with travel influencer Kelly Hill

Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Long blonde hair braided down her back, visits to epic destinations including Tulum, Bali and Portugal, and with a photographer/surfer for a husband – travel influencer Kelly Hill was just made for Instagram. And the IG community is taking notice – with Kelly encroaching on the 100K milestone on the Gram as followers vibe on her tropical hues of orange and aqua.

With this year seeing Kelly turn her passion for content creating into more of a full-time gig – while still working on the side as a consultant and contractor in app design and web development [fun fact: Kelly first began computer coding at age 11] – we decided to catch up with the NYC influencer to find out everything that’s been going on in her life behind-the-feed.

Here, Kelly reveals snippets of info into what makes her tick – from how she edits pictures to how she got started on IG to happiest moments…

5. Favourite item of clothing? Bikini or jean shorts

22. 9-5 job or full-time influencer? This year I became sort of full-time. I still work as a consultant and contractor for web development, app design, UX/UI design
23. How did you first get your start in Instablogging? I was on my honeymoon in Barbados and my husband is already a photographer – we started taking more photos and posting and I noticed people started following me more than usual from it. So I’ve kept posting and creating ever since then
24. How much time goes into a normal picture found on your Instagram account? Anywhere from 5 minutes to 5 hours
25. What’s your top Instagram tip? Quality. Edit consistently. Post consistently. Make your page beautiful in your eyes, but do what you do normally – stay true to yourself

27. Career highlight since being an influencer? Having the freedom and flexibility in my schedule

29. Best campaign you’ve ever worked on? I can’t decide! So many great ones…
30. Worst thing that’s happened to you on a photo shoot? We were trying to shoot at a location in Portugal and just couldn’t get a moment without people. For hours, haha!

49. Favourite quote you live by? “Always make deposits into the ‘Good Will’ bank – you’ll never know when you’ll need to withdraw”
