 I went VIRAL and this is what happened!

In today's episode I'm diving into the whirlwind experience of my viral Instagram reel that reached 2.7 million plays. I'll share the excitement, the engagement stats, and the surprising impact it had on my business. 

Spoiler: it wasn't what you might expect! 

We'll explore the unpredictable nature of social media, why authenticity trumps chasing virality, and how to stay true to what truly matters in our photography journeys. Let's get into it!

In this episode we cover:

  • Belle shares her experience with a viral Instagram reel.
  • The reel, featuring a white shirt reflecting light, reached 2.7 million plays.
  • Engagement metrics: 85,000 likes, 133 comments, and over 1,300 saves.
  • Despite significant visibility, the reel brought few new, relevant followers.
  • Viral success did not lead to new business opportunities or collaborations.
  • Belle discusses the unpredictability of social media success and the importance of authenticity.
  • She experienced no negative feedback or trolling from the viral content.
  • Emphasis on valuing integrity, joy, and fun over creating content solely for virality.
