@shineonyoucraydiamond
Bright colors and simplicity come together to create a feed with stunning photos, many of which feature cotton-candy coloured Minneapolis skies and silhouettes.
Thanks so much for your support. //Fantasy Friday// This collaborative photo was shot by @eye.c and edited by me as part of the #Fantasy_Friday collaborative group. Every other week we all edit the same photo, putting our own ideas of "fantasy" into the edit. The group's goal is to experiment, have fun, and see how different people interpret the same image. You can see the original photo, and the other team members' edits for this week here: #Fantasy_Friday_61.
@kimlycurry
@kimlycurry goes by “lil Miss Foodie” which makes sense when you see the photos of her eating her way around the twin cities. Each photo explodes with bright colors and lends a 10/10 visual review for the food vendor it was taken at. And yes, this is a photo of a donut sorbet sandwich.
@sanjbhak
@sanjbhak likes to post artistic photos of Minneapolis from unusual views. Life in the city has inspired some great photography featuring plenty of reflections, sunsets and angle work.
@justbeingcon
This florist’s feed is blossoming with vibrant photos of multicoloured succulent plants. She channelled her passion for creating arrangements into a really inventive Instagram account.
@franky.dood
This adorable mini Goldendoodle is the biggest canine insta-star from Minneapolis! Franky loves to run around with her tongue out and beg for treats with her big, beady brown eyes.
@mamacita.rita
Fashion shoots and powerful landscapes are this Instagrammer’s specialities. Her bold photos are all stunning and you’ll find yourself having a hard time picking a favorite as you scroll through her feed.
@captureminnesota
This Instagram community features photos from the whole state of Minnesota, but the Minneapolis ones that are included beautifully portray the city. The photos showcase the perfect balance of idyllic and urban adventures that you can find in the area.

@joshflom
@joshflom is an outdoor explore who loves a good adventure! He can be found in most photos on the lake, in a forest or even jumping from a plane. His photos serve as great inspiration for fellow adventure-seekers living in or visiting Minneapolis.
@sarahrileyrose
@sarahrileyrose is a style blogger with a great sense of fashion. Her photos primarily feature her sporting trendy looks around the twin cities. She has such a large following that other bloggers and brands have teamed up with her to do giveaways, indicating that she truly is an influencer.
@absolut_lee
Architecture is what speaks to this photographer, and @absolut_lee takes the neatest photos of Minneapolis buildings, hallways and city structures.
