Popular Instagram Hashtags for Photography: The Ultimate Guide for Every Type of Photographer
Whether you’re just starting with a camera or you’ve been shooting for years, hashtags are powerful tools to grow your photography presence online, especially on platforms like Instagram, Threads, and TikTok. With millions of tags available, selecting the right ones can be a challenging task.
This guide categorises the best photography hashtags to help you connect with your ideal audience, improve discoverability, and build your online portfolio with intention and style.
Why Hashtags Matter in Photography
Hashtags are not just social media fluff; they are how people discover your work. By tagging your photos with relevant, curated hashtags, you increase your chances of getting featured, building community, and attracting potential clients or collaborators. Remember, more isn’t always better. The key is to mix popular tags with niche-specific ones to ensure your content doesn’t get lost in the noise.
Below are different hashtag categories curated according to this year’s trends. Choose the category that matches your post’s content and select a few relevant hashtags from the list. There’s no need to use all of them—using too many can make your post look spammy and may lead to reduced visibility (also known as being sandboxed). Instead, pick the most popular and relevant ones. Instagram will also show the usage count when you type in a hashtag, which can help guide your choices.
