‘Boyfriends of Instagram’ Reveal the Hilarious Reality Behind Perfect Social Media Pics

We live in the age of social media where most people share photos of their milestones or scenes from their everyday lives. That said, there are women who want to post nothing but great-looking photos on their Instagram pages. They often ask their boyfriends or husbands to take photos that they feel would get a lot of likes and these men have been dubbed as the “Boyfriends of Instagram” or Instagram boyfriends. Naturally, there’s now a Facebook and Instagram page devoted to these guys.

We’d like to think that all of these men willingly became their girlfriends’ or wives’ photographers. However, the reality is that there are also some of them who are forced to do it in the name of love. We’ve picked 25 photos of these Instagram boyfriends (both willing and forced) in action.

3. Wait…is that their kid?
