The pictures quickly went viral, and Jen’s online recognition ‘skyrocketed.‘

As time went by, Jen learned what worked for her, and what didn’t. She eventually adopted her own routine which gave her the best results for fat loss and building muscle.

Ever since then, Jen has become a true icon in the world of fitness and modeling.

Jennifer Tuffen @izkiz

Jennifer otherwise known as izkiz. I’m an instagrammer, travel photographer and content creator from the UK. Although I was born in England, I grew up in a town just outside of Amsterdam in Holland and I now split my time between the UK, the Netherlands and a seaside resort on the Aegean coast of Turkey.

I started this blog last year along side my Instagram account. It’s my little corner of the internet where I can show you behind the scenes of the photos I post on Instagram, write reviews about the hotels i’ve stayed in, talk about the products i’m loving and post some of the zillions of photos I take on a daily basis.

2 MILLION PLUS FOLLOWERS

I’m a real girly girl that loves all things pink, dresses, make up and I spend far too much time buying skincare that I can’t afford but i’ll also be the first to cliff dive, climb a tree or roll around in mud. I love my dog like he’s my baby, going on long roadtrips, R’n’B, and scary movies. Most of the time I speak my own language which is a mixture of English, Dutch and Turkish and I believe that a good cup of tea can solve pretty much anything.

I wanted a short, catchy name. It’s very random but ‘iz’ comes from the first two letters of the city I lived in at the time (Izmir) and ‘Kiz’ meaning girl in Turkish. Voilà – izkiz was born!

Daniel Kordan @danielkordan

I have been fascinated by the possibilities of photography since my early childhood. I grew up at beautiful lake region under Moscow exploring wild nature, spending most of my free time in the nature. I graduated the art painting school when I was a kid.

Mix art, nature, constant activities and you’ll receive a summary – art of Landscape photography. Life started swirling me, pushing me into the rush. University, hard work on my quantum physics thesis, family and friends… But there is always a pleasure in the pathless woods: places I always returned and always admired.

Nature is my inspiration, with all the beauty and variety of colors and compositions.

Lucky for me during my study at Institute of Physics and Technology I gained experience in mountain climbing and hiking, guiding tourist groups in winter and in summer. I became a guide of photo-workshops and chief editor of “Continent expedition” magazine.

I live in the world today, but there are places on Earth, I attached with by my soul. It’s villa Gaia in Tuscany I live mainly these days. I love Lofoten islands, with their remarkable atmosphere of fishing villages, sailing adventures, incredible hikes and northern lights dances during the winter time.

There's no shortage of lifestyle bloggers travelling the world, sharing their wanderlust-inducing pictures on Instagram to hoards of followers.

But few of them have the knowledge of the globe that a pilot does — and a view from the cockpit.

Known as @pilotmadeleine on Instagram, Madeleine SchneiderWeiffenbach calls herself a "blogger & globetrotter" — and she also happens to be a trained pilot on the hunt for a job.

Until the perfect role crops up, her followers watch as she travels the world — usually with her boyfriend, who also has a big following — sharing stunning 1 MILLION PLUS FOLLOWERS

snaps of destinations like Santorini and the Taj Mahal.

Meanwhile, she also writes a lifestyle blog where she shares her tips on travel, fitness, fashion, recipes, and even has an online shop where she sells her own book about "clean and creative cooking."

She gained her Commercial Pilot License a few years ago, but has since struggled to find the perfect pilot job. Instead, she has focused on lifestyle blogging, travelling the world, and occasionally flying privately.

world luxury For those times when you need to bring your office with you, or if you're on the go, the timeless design is simple enough for everyday use and complements any wardrobe.

CRAFTSMANSHIP We take pride in what we do, and what we do is not always easy. We have strict guidelines that ensure our products are of exceptional quality and that no short cuts have been taken. This intricate process starts with the leather, closely examining each individual hide, making sure there are no imperfections. After the leather is cut, all edges are buffed, polished and painted by hand. When the product begins to come together, finer details such as stitching are inspected to ensure quality construction. Upon completion, we perform a final inspection to certify the Frank Clegg signature of approval.

SMOOTH TUMBLED LEATHER This leather is gently tumbled in rotating drums filled with vegetable extracts to give it a distinctively soft and relaxed hand, while at the same time remaining durable. This leather is also finished with polishable waxes that will patina, but due to its more natural grain, the aging process will take longer than the harness belting.

And just like our belting leather, a fine protective film is applied during the finishing process for added surface protection.

NURAPH FOR DECADES, HEADPHONES HAVE NOT ACCOUNTED FOR THE DRASTIC DIFFERENCES IN OUR INDIVIDUAL HEARING. UNTIL NOW.

Melbourne-based, personalised sound pioneer nura has launched its highly anticipated debut product — a reinvention of the headphone that looks, feels and works in a radically different way to conventional headphones.

Winner of CES Best of Innovation Award, Red Dot's Best of the Best Award and Good Design Award 2018.

Rediscover your favourite music.

Built to deliver the most immersive experience of the music you love, at its core is a self-learning engine that automatically measures your hearing by monitoring otoacoustic emissions – no need to take a “can you hear this?” test. nuraphones use this information to adapt the sound of the headphones to perfectly match your hearing and bring your music into sharp focus. The learning process takes only about a minute. It is performed using a companion app available free on iOS and Android. Once personalised, your profile is stored on the nuraphone delivering your perfect sound from any music source such as a smartphone, computer, home stereo, airplane seat, etc. The nuraphone can store up to three unique profiles so you can share and compare with your friends.

FrontRow™ immersion The nuraphone is neither in-ear nor over-ear – it’s both. We call it inova™. The revolutionary architecture delivers bass you can feel, while maintaining crystal-clear detail. It works by splitting the melodic sounds to an in-ear speaker, and lowtones to an over-ear driver that delivers the bass through your skin. You can adjust your level of immersion with the companion app. And thanks to the dual isolation of inova™, the nuraphones don’t let any noise in or leak any sound out. www.nuraphone.com

Jeremy Jauncey @jeremyjauncey

To the uninitiated, a cursory scroll through Jeremy Jauncey’s Instagram feed might give the impression that he’s just one of the many good-looking people who have made a career out of social media.

Behind the stunning travel pictures on @BeautifulDestinations and his personal feed (private islands in the Maldives, helicopter rides over Manhattan) a fully-fledged business is whirring away. The company now has about 40 employees spread across offices in New York (where Jauncey, a Scot, now spends most of his time), London and Hong Kong.

500K TO 749K FOLLOWERS

He hopes to apply what the company has done with short videos on Instagram to longer episodes for these streaming platforms.

There are people who “think their life is validated by social media and that everything they do needs to be shared to build digital popularity.” But, he says, “It’s actually nonsense, really. It’s important to know that social media is what you choose to share about your life. It is not your life.”

Jess Dales @jess.wandering

Some places always feel like coming home. But for me, home has never been a box with rooms, a yard, and white picket fence.

I tried to fit my life into that box. I really did. Not that long ago I spent my days behind a big desk, in a small office, with nothing on the white walls except for the law degree that I thought would define my future. Instead, I felt nostalgic for a life I wasn’t living, and probably never would.

Growing up I wanted to be a doctor. Then entomologist, photographer, journalist, veterinarian, conservation biologist - I could go on and on.

Point is, at no time do I remember wanting to be a lawyer. And all 500K TO 749K FOLLOWERS

those paths I didn't take, they haunted me. So when fortune handed me a get out of jail free card in the form of a layoff, I happily embraced the opportunity.

Instead I focused on the big stuff.

The what’s, and especially the why? I definitely don't have it all figured out. But this time around I’m determined to be the author of my own story. There are no blueprints for this life. No instruction manual. And that’s oka

Before I decided to focus entirely on Instagram I worked many years as a digital creative in in the fields of online marketing, user experience and information architecture.

Being on Instagram since the launch of the app, I built an expertise about the platform and its community within more than eight years.

My name's Ben and I'm an outdoor lifestyle photographer based near Vancouver BC Canada.

When I was kid, I used to have these embarrassing moments with my Dad. Every time we went out on some new adventure (camping, skiing, biking, hiking, etc), he would always bring along this hilarious variety of sub-$200 digital cameras - and, of course, wanted me to pose for photos.

I've always been pretty awkward in front of the camera, but I didn't really care because I was a kid.

Although, fast forward to about age 13, I was solely focused on being as cool as possible, and posing for my Dad's photos was no longer an option. My Dad has UP TO 499K FOLLOWERS

always been a resourceful individual and he figured a $5 payment would be well worth the memories. Somehow I agreed. I'm not sure exactly how much money I made, but we think my reluctant modelling was worth about $30 a year.

I'm not who I thought I would turn out to be - who my Dad was back then, that's me now. Well, mostly; I don't have kids of my own yet, but the summary is perfectly relevant. My camera is worth a bit more than $200, but it's always in the car with me, in my hands, or buried in my pack - camping, hiking, mountains, beaches, etc.

Beverly is an intuitive photographer rather than a technical one, a person who lives and breathes Africa and its wild open places filled with big cats and elephants, racing zebras or bubbling lava flows. National Geographic Explorer-inResidence, just one of 14 people selected to represent this level of professionalism in the Society, she has specialized in African photography for nearly 30 years, with images in a dozen or more National Geographic Magazines, in 10 books, and thousands of articles around the world.

She is a child of Africa and that seems to make all the difference because deeply embedded in her work is a knowledge of her UP TO 499K FOLLOWERS

subjects; she seems to understand the leopard through the highlights on the eyes and what it will do next, because she has seen it thousands of times before. She feels the mist swirl around a male lion‌ and we as observers of the image she gives us, can also feel the roar that is about to come from its mouth, because she has heard those roars daily for decades.

Her passion for wildlife is endless.

Perhaps for Beverly, the most prestigious and valued accolade is the Presidential Order of Merit given to her by the president of Botswana His Excellency Ian Khama, for work done for the enhancement of the reputation of Botswana via her images.

My name is Jen Balisi, a 5 foot tall gal with a big appetite and a serious travel bug. I grew up in a Filipino household where food was the center of everything and family vacations were tradition.

When I moved to New York City to go to college at NYU, my passion for food grew as I explored the restaurant capital that was now my home. A semester abroad in Prague enhanced my inherent strength in planning weekend trips and weeklong getaways. Graduation led to a career in marketing at American Express and a growing bank account, which opened my palate to 3 star Michelin restaurants and tasting menus, and opened my mind to new cultures and destinations as I traveled more and more.

I started Indulgent Eats in 2013 as a way to share all of these experiences. As my Instagram audience grew to my surprise, I kept working on my photography and witty captions to the point where I’ve now made this my fulltime job.

I don’t expect every piece of content to be relevant to you and that’s where things get a bit selfish on my part, but I do hope that you, the reader, still find enough tidbits of usefulness, happiness, curiosities, what have you, that you stay along for the ride.

June Quan @stirandstyle

It started off as unintentional.

Then one day, I finally became aware of where food intersected with fashion in my mind. It happened when I was working at a law firm and taking my usual lunch/shopping break. I walked into Zara, saw a dark green flowy jumpsuit, and the first thought that came to mind was a citrusy kale salad I ate while having lunch in San Francisco with a friend from high school years ago. It hit me that I associate memories of food with items of clothing, which in turn has developed my style and taste in food.

The nostalgia and positivity I experience spawned by a single bite of food inspires not only a desire to hold onto those UP TO 499K FOLLOWERS

moments, but also opens my eyes to a unique perspective of my own mind’s way of linking together two genuine passions in my life- food and fashion.

Essentially, as I style outfits, I get the chance to wear my memories.

It becomes a way for me to express myself through my wardrobe and allows me to preserve those moments longer.

As I said, it started off as unintentional. Now that I’m aware that my love for food and the significant impact it has on my life inspires my fashion, I am able to cherish those memories even more.

Katerina & Yinon @katerinandyinon

Hi, we’re Katerina and Yinon! We come from the middle of nowhere and are headed pretty much everywhere.

We were born and grew up in small countries (Bulgaria and Israel) but life brought us together in the big city of New York. We met by chance, waiting in line for a salad and our lives have completely changed since.

We both had the travel bug for as long as we could remember but it was only after we found the love of our lives and built a strong relationship that we were able to take it to the next level and turn it into our own business.

With our backgrounds, we were only able to get where we are through hard work and making the impossible possible, and we think anyone else can do it too.

So we started this blog to help others not only “believe” in their dreams, but work hard to make them possible like we did.

Traveling around the world to open your mind, discover different cultures and add new perspectives is one of the best things you could do, but sharing it with your other half is even better!

Sun-drenched locations, lustworthy travel experiences, a positive outlook on life and an infectious love for one another, full-time wanderers Kody and Kelly from Positravelty give us some serious good vibes and inspire our lust for travel to farflung destinations.

Our inspiration comes from many different avenues. Exploring new destinations, meeting new people, learning about new cultures, photography and collaborations with other creative minds all inspire us. Our curiosity for the world seems to grow as we continue to explore.

Whether it’s bathing in waterfalls in Bali, laying poolside in South Africa or trekking in Norway, their beautiful Instagram images never fail to delight us. We take five with them this week to find out more.

Our perfect day would be an early morning hike followed by a relaxing afternoon at a secluded beach with fresh, cold coconuts.

Bonjour! My name is Kirsten. I’ve worn a lot of hats in my career, but I am first and foremost always a photographer. I’d love to work with you to create imagery that inspires and motivates your desired audience to action – particularly if it’s socially conscious and environmentally responsible. I’ve worked with brands such as Four Seasons, Ted Baker and Travel + Leisure on every continent but Antarctica. I also blog occasionally about my travels, my favorite things and what it’s like to call Los Angeles home. I’m a lover of culture and adventure, I’m always seeking to know more. I’m a romantic and an optimist at heart..who feels drawn to consistently revisit old favorites like France and Scotland. Like I UP TO 499K FOLLOWERS

said above, almost all the work I do has some element of photography inherent but I have also consulted and advised brands; I’ve spoken at conferences on six continents; I have been in front of the camera hosting for CNN, Travel+Leisure, and Expedia; and I was the first photographer to travel around the world aboard Four Seasons new private jet in the Spring of 2015.

Travel, to me, has always symbolized the magic and freedom of not only finding oneself, but also learning about the world outside your door and being actively invested in your own life’s journey.

Influencer marketing is quickly becoming a major part of the social marketing strategies for many marketers and agencies a like. With digital marketing spend increasing every year, more and more dollars are being devoted to influencer marketing programs due to their potential for significant ROI yields with often less resources.

The value of influencer marketing is undeniable and no matter the size, resources, or sophistication, of a marketer or agency, all should be considering integrating an influencer marketing strategy into their social plans, even if their just beginning. The prospect of being able to reach consumers, inside and outside your traditional audience, in engaging ways, and through trusted voices is value that can’t be found through many if any other forms of social media marketing.

What if I told you there’s a guy who lost his leg to a shark attack and says it’s the best thing that ever happened to him? I guess it would just prove that life is simply a matter of perspective. Meet Mike Coots, a 35-year-old Kauai born surfer, photographer, and all around Good Samaritan. In 1997, at the tender age of 17, Mike lost his leg in a shark attack on the North Shore of Kauai while surfing with his buddy at his favorite surf spot. However, recounting the incident with him and his life ever since, tragic is not a word that comes to mind.

When asked about a picture I found of him in the hospital the day after the incident with a huge smile on his face, Mike simply says, “I was just so happy and grateful to be alive.” He is the kind of guy who was back out in the lineup six weeks later at the same surf break. “My friends love surfing with me now because they know that it’s near impossible they’ll get bit by a shark.”

In 2011, Ronan Donovan was researching chimpanzees in Uganda’s Kibale National Park for Harvard professor Richard Wrangham when he made the images that helped him establish a career as a conservation photographer. Part of his work involved climbing fig trees to observe the chimps, and he brought his camera with him, creating a series of photographs of the primates from above.

Wrangham sent the images to wildlife photojournalist Tim Laman, who put Donovan in touch with Kathy Moran, National Geographic’s senior editor for natural history. That put Donovan on Moran’s radar, but it wasn’t until 2014 that Moran asked if he’d like to try assisting UP TO 499K FOLLOWERS

Donovan spent the next year on that work, which was published in the May 2016 issue alongside stories by Nichols, Erika Larsen, David Guttenfelder and others.

LEICA QTHE DESIGN OF THE NEW MODEL OF THE LEICA Q SERIES CONCENTRATES ON UNDERSTATEMENT

With the Leica Q-P, Leica Camera AG presents a further model of its highperformance compact camera with a full-frame sensor and a fast prime lens.

Lacking the Leica red dot logo, but instead featuring a restrained, classic Leica script engraved on the top plate, the discreet design of the Leica Q-P sets it apart from the existing Leica Q models in silver and black. The matt black paint finish of the camera body is especially resilient and underlines its refined and elegant looks. A new feature of the Leica Q-P is a shutter release button that replicates those of the Leica M and CL cameras.

The camera comes complete with a carrying strap in finest brown leather and an additional battery.

The technical specifications of the Leica Q-P are identical to those of the serial production models of the Leica Q camera. The outstanding feature of all models is a particularly fast Leica Summilux 1:1.7/28 mm ASPH. lens that makes the camera perfect for photography in available light and for street photography, architecture and landscapes. For reliable control of subject composition, the Leica Q-P features an integrated viewfinder with a resolution of 3.68 MP. Even the finest details of every exposure are displayed without any perceptible lag as soon as the camera is brought up to the user’s eye.

All functions of the camera are clearly laid out and logically placed to guarantee perfect ergonomics and particularly intuitive handling. Its clear and logical menu concept provides rapid access to all essential functions and enables users to programme personalised settings.

The Leica Q-P also delivers video recordings in full-HD quality. Depending on the scene and subject, users can choose between 30 and 60 full frames per second for video recording in MP4 format. The camera also features an integrated Wi-Fi module for remote control and digital transfer of still pictures and video to a smartphone with the Leica FOTOS App. uk.leica-camera.com/Photography/Leica-Q/Leica-Q-P

VOLLEBAK MADE FROM PULPED EUCALYPTUS AND BEECH FROM SUSTAINABLY MANAGED FORESTS, AND ALGAE GROWN IN BIOREACTORS, THE VOLLEBAK PLANT AND ALGAE T SHIRT DOESN’T START LIFE LIKE ANY OTHER PIECE OF CLOTHING.

And it doesn’t end its life like any other piece of clothing either. When you’ve finished with the t-shirt it turns into worm food. You can either put it in the compost or bury it in your garden to biodegrade in the soil and it will be gone within 12 weeks.

The design of the t-shirt is made entirely from algae. To turn it into a printable ink we used the same technique used in Kenya to create algae cake. Instead of passing lake water through a cotton net, we pass water from the bioreactor through a filter. This process separates the algae, leaving a soupy algae paste.

This paste is then dried in the sun to create a fine powder, and this powder is mixed with a water-based binder to make algae ink.

It’s then printed onto a shirt that is made of wood pulp from sustainably managed forests. Eucalyptus, beech, and spruce are chipped and pulped, before being turned into fibre, then yarn and finally fabric. All the wood is harvested from sustainable forestry plantations and certified by both the Forestry Sustainability Council (FSC) and the Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC).

Representing over 700 million acres of certified forests, the PEFC is the largest forest certification system in the world.

“The only thing different about this t shirt is that it grew in soil and water, and that’s where it’s designed to end up too. All you need to do is remember to compost it at the end of its life. Here it will biodegrade with them, turn into soil, and help new plants to grow,” explains Vollebak co-founder, Steve Tidball.

“Algae can’t survive once it’s removed from water, so the algae on the t-shirt is no longer alive. And because it started life as a plant rather than a chemical dye, the natural pigment in algae is more sensitive and won’t behave like colour normally does on clothing. As soon as it comes into contact with air it starts to oxidise, which means the green will begin to change colour and your t shirt may look different from one week to the next as it fades, making every t-shirt unique,” Available to buy next week, you can find out more about the Vollebak Plant & Algae T Shirt and join the waiting list at: www.vollebak.com/product/plantalgae-waiting-list/
