When Instagram snapped onto the social media scene in late 2010, we instantly gravitated toward the photo-sharing app brimming with image filters that made even the must mundane shots picture-perfect. Fast forward to today and Instagram has become a daily part of life for millions, and has even become big business for both everyday people and famous faces.
