PRIIME COLLECTIONS » A beautiful and simple way to share my travels by Vivian Chen

When I'm not photographing weddings, I'm spending my time traveling, hiking and exploring the great outdoors. Up until recently, my Instagram feed was where I collected and share these photos. I love using Instagram but when you have over 1000 images on a feed, it was difficult for me to point people to photos from a specific trip. This is where Priime Collections comes in! I've been using Priime for almost a year now and it's my go-to iPhone photography editing app. The filters and editing tools are easy to use and they really help enhance my landscape and nature photography. Today they've launched a new feature: Priime Collections, which offers a clean and simple way to share and display groups of photos. (Think of them as photography portfolios or albums.) I was invited to test out the beta last month absolutely loved it! Priime Collections also includes a Featured section so you can peruse through the work other photographers. My Mendocino collection (among a few others) are featured this week, but definitely check back often as they're constantly updating and showcasing new collections. In the mean time, feel free to poke around my Priime Collections page! (I definitely plan to use it to share future adventures!)

PASSION PASSPORT » National Parks Instagram Challenge by Vivian Chen

When I saw that Passion Passport announced an Instagram contest in honor of America's National Park's 100 year anniversary, I had to enter. I dug through my archives and chose one of my favorites from a 2014 trip to Lassen Volcanic National Park. And I am so excited to have been chosen as one of their honorable mentions! Thank you Passion Passport!
