Transcript
00:00I'm Lisey Fink and this is 5 Days of Being Instagram Famous.
00:07Hey guys, it's me. What's up?
00:10This week we're talking about my favorite social media platform, besides YouTube of course, Instagram.
00:16I'm still in constant awe of the people who have accounts with over 100,000 followers.
00:22100k! That is a lot of people to convince to click the follow button on your page.
00:27So these people must be doing something right.
00:29In this episode of Try Living With Lucy, instead of having you guys try to live like me,
00:33I thought that we, together, could try to live like other people.
00:37How does that sound?
00:38So for the next 5 days, I'm going to hit up one famous Instagrammer each day,
00:44each in a different category, and we're going to go see what their lives are like,
00:48how they do what they do, and how they achieved such a huge following.
00:52Category number 1, food bloggers.
00:55I feel like almost everyone on Instagram tries to be a food Instagrammer,
00:59but what really sets some of these accounts apart is when they have an additional element
01:03that the followers just can't find elsewhere.
01:06For instance, babies.
01:07I hung out with Food Baby NY, a family of 4 who are all, as a collective unit, considered to
01:14be Food Baby.
01:16We're all Food Baby.
01:19But I think Mike is the real Food Baby.
01:22We started dating when we were seniors in high school, and I feel like one of our biggest connections was
01:26food.
01:26So I would say it really started when I was on maternity leave.
01:30So we were ordering up sushi, and Michael had it all sprawled down on the table, took a photo,
01:35and kind of by accident, Matthew ended up in one of the corner of one of the shots,
01:39and he noticed that the photos did a lot better when the babies were in the shot.
01:43They are totally family goals, and the kids are so cute and so much fun to hang out with,
01:48and I'm crossing my fingers sitting here hoping that they adopt me into their family and make me the fifth
01:54Food Baby.
01:56We bought some donuts together, and then we spent the afternoon in New York City doing what they do.
02:01So I definitely can get a lot more creative when they're sleeping.
02:07They don't stop moving. You can already see. They never stop.
02:10I'll usually try to just, like, go in front of them without disrupting them too much.
02:15Let them chill and see what happens. I can't believe she's wearing the hat.
02:17It's very difficult to get a photo where the food's in focus and they're mostly in focus behind it, so
02:22it's challenging.
02:24Look at the donuts!
02:26Whoa!
02:29So what I'm doing now is what I... I might have gotten a good one, but I'm still taking some.
02:33So how many do you take to get the right shot?
02:35I probably have a couple hundred already.
02:37Okay, so let's see what I got. I took a ton of photos.
02:42We go everywhere together. We never split up everywhere as a family with the babies.
02:46Yeah, the only time I've ever slept away from Matthew is when I was in the hospital the two nights
02:50with Samantha.
02:52So, I mean, we're two people that we loved dating and then we loved being married and now we love
02:56being a family.
02:57So I'm the one that takes all the photos, but it's impossible without Alex.
03:00Other than her having actually birthed them, it's also impossible to run it without her.
03:04Oh my gosh. Oh my gosh.
03:09Smile, Sammy!
03:13You are a little star.
03:16Baby!
03:18Baby!
03:19You are the biggest food baby in the world.
03:22Can I have a little kissy on my nose?
03:26So you're basically just hanging out with food and kids.
03:29Yeah.
03:29It works for you better.
03:30Yeah.
03:30Unless you get a puppy.
03:32Well, yeah.
03:32We're good.
03:33I'll give him another food baby before we get a dog.
03:36Yeah?
03:37Cheers.
03:38To food baby.
03:40I'm part of the family, right?
03:42Please adopt me.
03:44Please.
03:44Um, Matthew, if you wouldn't mind, I am dying for some peanut butter panda puffs.
03:50Peanut butter panda puffs.
03:51Dad, we raided the fridge and somebody is now one less cup of peanut...
03:57Butter.
03:58Oh my god.
03:59That is good.
04:00This week we're doing something a little bit different where we're splitting each day into
04:04its own separate video.
