Could you introduce yourself in a few lines so that our community can get to know you better? How would you define your style/universe as a fashion and beauty influencer?
My name is Gaby influencer fashion and beauty, and I'm a Parisian with a passion for photography and Japanese culture! On my networks and my blog, I share everything I love and everything that inspires me. It can be beauty, skincare, food, books, travel and also my little family life with my boyfriend Arnaud, my two cats... Minouche and Mamoute and my little dog, Yuki.
Date of creation of your activity on the social networks as a fashion and beauty influencer?
November 2017
What triggered you off and why did you embark on the social networking adventure in the first place? instagram ?
I started on Instagram because this is the only network where photography is king. We share images, videos and immortalized moments of life. Everything I love! As a keen photographer, it was an obvious choice for me to try my hand at sharing my creations here. And over time, I became addicted! Today, it's impossible to imagine myself without this network.
How much time do you spend on your articles or videos? Production, assembly...? Do you have any organizational tips for others? influencers fashion and beauty?
I personally spend a lot of time on the creation of content. I really want to create quality images, so I'm going toinvested in this task. So I take several hours a day to do it!
My advice is to be hyper-organized! It's hard to manage everything at once, so having a detailed schedule is key:)
What a community and audienceare you targeting?
I target women my age, between 25 and 35. For the rest, I hope to speak to everyone and for all interests!
Where do you find most of your inspiration? And which social networks do you use the most?
I use Instagram for the most part. And I draw a lot of my inspiration from this network. I look at the trendsI'd like to know what my favorite accounts offer, what I don't see and what I need to offer myself on my account. I also draw inspiration from my everyday life, art and culture!
How do you manage your time, between family, work and social networks? Do you have a job or activity other than your work as a fashion and beauty influencer?
It's very difficult to manage everything at once, especially when you're self-employed and work from home. Today, it's the rigor I learned during my engineering studies that helps me organize everything!
My planning is meticulous and structured. I'm around 4h per day devoted to myinfluencer. I also reserve 4h to my second profession of Community Digital Manager and Advisor. The rest is for taking care of my family!
Do you make your own visuals and photos? And if so, what equipment do you use?
I do everything myself. I'm using my iPhone 11 promy Nikon D5100 with different focal lengths, as well as my Lumix GH5 for video. I also have light boxes, stabilizers, tripods, microphones, a drone... In short! I'm really equipped!
What advice would you give to others influencers of the community?
Get involved and find your own way to stand out from the crowd! Unfortunately, we see too many influences that are content to do what works for their neighbors. What a shame!
What would you like to undertake or develop next in your life as a fashion and beauty influencer?
I'd like to work with more and more brands, offering ever more original and high-quality content! I'm still very shy when it comes to video, in particular. support there when I've got lots of ideas in my head.
