We're rolling into the weekend with another fresh group of Sony shooters to follow on Instagram. In this edition of Instagram Follow Friday we’re excited to again highlight a trio of photographers who are just about to complete their nine-day journey capturing all of the public piers down the California coast with Sony α7R III cameras and 24mm f/1.4 G Master lenses, a Sony Artisan with an eye for fashion, an Alpha Collective member finding beauty in the darkness and two other Sony shooters who are using lighting in unique ways to bring new life to their captures.

Join the Be Alpha movement and tag your Sony shots with #BeAlpha for your chance to be featured on Alpha Universe!

Alpha Collective members Eric Rubens (@erubes1) and Garrett King (@shortstache), along with another Sony shooter Cas Sheridan (@cassheridan), are just about to wrap up their whirlwind trip to capture the historic piers of California’s coastline. They spent nine days traveling from Crescent City to San Diego and documenting all of the public piers in between. See more from their journey at #BeyondThePier, and if you’re around San Diego, join them tomorrow (Saturday, November 17) from 3-5pm for a meetup at Scripps Memorial Pier – their final stop of the trip!

Ashley Brehm – @ashleyinwanderland

Ashley is another member of the #AlphaCollective, and her handle @ashleyinwanderland is a perfect fit for her style. Many of her portraits are like something straight out of a dark fairytale.
