Getting more from these captions

  • Mind the 150-character limit

    Instagram allows 150 characters in a bio. Every quote here is well under, so you can add your city or role after it with a bar.

  • Put the quote above your role

    A bio that opens with a line of motivation and ends with "photographer | Indore" reads as personal and clear.

  • Change it when your goal changes

    A bio quote about starting over suits a new business. After a year, swap it for one about consistency.
