Becoming a food blogger and Instagram influencer was never something that I had imagined for myself. In fact, it all started as a simple hobby that quickly turned into a passion and eventually a full-time career.
It all began about five years ago when I started posting pictures of my homemade meals on Instagram. I have always had a love for cooking and baking, and I found joy in sharing my creations with friends and family online. Little did I know that those humble beginnings would lead me to where I am today.
As my following grew, I started receiving messages from people asking for recipes and tips on how to recreate my dishes. This encouraged me to start a blog where I could share more in-depth recipes and stories behind the food I was creating. Soon, I found myself spending hours in the kitchen, experimenting with new ingredients and techniques, and documenting it all on my blog and Instagram.
What really propelled me into the world of food blogging and Instagram influencing was when brands started reaching out to collaborate with me. I began receiving products to review and promote, and even started getting invited to events and restaurant openings. This was when I realized that my hobby could actually turn into a viable career.
I dedicated more time and effort into growing my brand, creating high-quality content, and engaging with my followers. I invested in better camera equipment, attended food photography workshops, and learned about social media marketing strategies. It wasn’t always easy, and there were times when I felt overwhelmed by the pressure to constantly create and share content, but the support and encouragement from my followers kept me going.
Today, I am proud to say that I am a successful food blogger and Instagram influencer with a loyal following. I have collaborated with some of my favorite food brands, worked with renowned chefs, and even published my own cookbook. I never imagined that my love for food and cooking would lead me to where I am now, but I am grateful for the journey and opportunities that have come my way.
Becoming a food blogger and Instagram influencer has not only allowed me to pursue my passion for food, but it has also opened doors to new experiences, friendships, and career opportunities that I never thought possible. I am excited to see where this journey will take me next and I am grateful to have found my calling in the world of food and social media.

So I'm also a instagram food influencer. I'm well known in my area, 10k followers, I'm also the number 1 foodie in my city, not a massive city, but decent size in Georgia. I started in 2021 just having fun posting food and it sorta blew up. Restaurants know me and consider me a local resource. I tend to highlight delicious eats in my city, as I eat places I highlight different dishes and repost dishes, stories from other restaurant instagram accounts. I've worked with some big brand but they only offer gift cards.
I also am working on a website, but I'm struggling to figure out how to make money from the instagram? What to charge, what to charge for as I've always done stuff for free to grow the account, but now I need to start making funds from it. A lot of local restaurants struggle here, but at the same time, the credibility I've built is important to me, so I just don't want to become a account with nothing but sponsored posts. But need to figure out how to make money from the instagram and the upcoming website. Ideas?

The event that you just described is something that Yelp Elite does lol. I'm still trying to earn back my status. If you get one I highly recommend going to those events often. They are a lot of fun and helps with your food content.
