While some photographers are still struggling to adapt to the Instagram era, others are monetizing the rising trend of Tik-Tok. If initially it was a platform that appealed to a younger generation (people under 25), now the platform attracted users in all age ranges - from preteens to moms, dads, and business owners worldwide.
Why does it matter?
The Tik-Tok phenomenon has created a space for content creators to express themselves like never before, with increased reach and dozens of image editing and video editing tools to pick from. So whether you are into product photography, photographing models, or weddings - every possible niche is now reachable via Tik-Tok.
Also, Tik-Tok makes it easier to reach people organically (while Instagram and Facebook organic reach is relatively low these days). So whether you want to become a content creator or just want to follow other fantastic content creators and photographers, we curated some profiles worth following!
