When Elise Swopes first joined Instagram in 2011, she couldn’t have imagined that she’d one day be featured on billboards, in commercials, and on mood boards at agencies across the globe.

She just knew that the phone in her hand held an incredible power, one that would allow her to inspire others while showcasing her unique vision.

While almost everyone has a phone, not everyone makes art with it.

Swopes is determined to change that by making her methods accessible. She works extensively with technology companies like Adobe and Apple to motivate a new generation of photographers. She takes the mystery out of creating magic by offering a Swopes Note newsletter, tutorial video channel, and one-on-one mentoring as free, easy-to-access resources. Recently, she created a free 3-Week Online Presence Challenge to encourage her followers to find focus and clarity as they develop their own personal brand.

This 32-year-old artist brought in over $200,000 selling NFTs. Here’s how she’s supporting women of color in the space

After her first sale in March for over $17,600, she thought, ”‘Oh my god, my life is going to change,’” the 32-year-old tells CNBC Make It. “And it has ever since then. It’s definitely brought me a lot of opportunity.”
