O autorze

Sara Tasker gave up her job as a speech therapist with the National Health Service as her Instagram career began to take off.

Sara is now a key influencer in the areas of Instagram coaching, iPhonegraphy, lifestyle blogging and writing. She distributes free Insta-tips via her blog and also runs hugely popular Insta-magic e-courses, as well as a series of Hashtag Authentic podcasts for creatives.
