Weed Photographers You Should Know About

The world of weed is exciting for entrepreneurs of all types right now, including artists, writers, and photographers. Cannabis photography is an art form being perfected by shutterbugs starting to make their names known as they carve out a spot in the cannabis industry. 

There are several places you can go to check out professional stock images of the plants and people using cannabis. Stock Pot Images is one, so is nugshots, both sites offer high-end, professional quality stock images that you can purchase the right to use commercially. Sites like Adobe Stock and Pixabay also have weed themed images available but for us at Her(B) Life you just can't beat Instagram for cannabis photos.

Usually on Fridays we publish an installment of our Spotlight Series, where we highlight a female led cannabis company or service but today we're going to do something a bit different.  

A New Breed of Instagram Star

Thanks to social media,  artists, illustrators and photographers from all over the world and all walks of life (including the underground cannabis community) are able to show off their work and build a brand and a following. We spend a lot of time on Instagram poring over beautiful images of plants and people and we've developed some pretty serious insta-crushes on a few photographers whom we have listed below. Each of these photographers is an artist with a unique vision and style and all of them deserve a follow from you. It should also be noted that we found it extremely difficult to pick just one image from these accounts to feature - they all had so many gorgeous pictures in their feeds.
