There’s a new Instagram photo spot on the scene and that’s at Instaphilly. Instaphilly has over 20 different photos/scenes to help you capture the perfect shot. It’s located at 219 Market Street in Philadelphia. Laura Eaton and Katie Kupstas took a vision of having all things Philly and turned it into an experience.

Local Artists
One of the best features is that the experience showcases local artist and businesses. For instance Alloyius Mcilwane. He’s a self taught artist who also was born and raised in Philly. He has his artwork all around Philadelphia. His signature is bold and bright colors that showcase Philly and national treasures. His eye for color is outstanding.

Local Businesses
One of my favorite Ice-cream spots is Franklin Icecream Bar. They have both regular and vegan options. I absolutely love their pumpkin pie that I overindulge in the Fall. They are located across the street from Instaphilly. They are a Philly favorite. If you ever had it you know they serve the ice-cream in a Chinese box. I don’t know why eating the Ice-cream in the box makes it even more special but it does! I love it! They also sell ice-cream toppings to take home along with cakes and pies. You really have got to try them. Instaphilly had them featured!

Media Night
We were invited for Media Night on Friday July 16th. In addition to allowing us entry to take photos, videos, etc., we were greeted by the owners, some of the artists, as well as Philadelphia pretzels. One of the features that I love inside of Instaphilly is several ring lights throughout. Nothing is worse than taking a picture with bad lighting. Instaphilly has you covered. All you have to do is grab tickets and show up with your smile. Instaphilly provides the back drop.
Treats and Eats
For media night there were some amazing treats like mini Bundt cakes from Nothing Bundt Cakes. I has just attended the event for the Best of Mainline the day before but the kiwi like Bundt cake is something out of this world! It’s a serious go and pick up! There was also wines and beverages and other amazing finger foods to enjoy!
What You Need to Know
Tickets during the week from Tuesday-Thursday are $10 all ages. This is a great way to save money and maybe beat the crowd. For the weekend tickets are $15 for adults and $10 for kids. So you’re going to save for an adult ticket by going during the week. Once inside, bring your phone and go through the photo scenes as you see fit. I would encourage getting photos and videos. Each scene is a different experience. Tickets are timed for the top of the hour giving you 45 minutes to get the shots you desire.

On Monday August 2 there will be a Blogger and Influencer night. The tickets are $15 plus a $1.75 fee. If you’re looking to network and collaborate with some of the best in the city, this is your chance. The event is from 6:30-830pm and no one under 21 will be admitted. Lite bites, wines, as well as good vibes will be waiting on you! Grab your tickets!
So I don’t know who needs to hear this, but go and grab your tickets and enjoy the beauty of Philadephia in photo form! Thank you to Laura and Katie for having me. You both are amazing in spirit and I wish nothing but good things to come.
