People Instagram a lot of random stuff, especially in San Francisco, which we learned late last year is the 10th most Instagrammed place in the world. And while pictures of bridges and crooked streets are perhaps some of the more popular content to slap a filter on, one local photographer has found national fame with a seemingly much more prosaic subject: doors. As CBS 5 reports, Julie Gebhardt has both been named one of "the best urban Instagrammers in the US" by The Guardian and profiled by the New York Times as "one of the 'doortrait' artists of Instagram."
“My overarching theme is the beauty of the ordinary,” she told CBS 5. “The whole notion of the door as a portal — the interior and the exterior and the door is that way in.”
With just shy of 50,000 followers, Gebhardt, whose day job is that of a hairdresser, clearly has found an audience receptive to her view of beauty in the every day (also, her pictures are colorful and playful — neither of which can hurt). So much so, in fact, that she has begun leading door tours.
Take a deep dive into her account, and revel in all the doory weirdness that San Francisco has to offer — you might even find your own apartment in there.
