Part 1. What is An Emoji?

Emojis are short appearances commonly in computer technology interfaces that represent some feeling, thing, or symbol in a small form. They were primarily designed to allow people to show emotions in chat conversations or even in type messages.  Today, emojis are used in messages, on social media platforms, as well as in advertisements.

Be it smiley faces, hearts, food, animals, or any other thing, there is an emoji available that represents it. They are very emotional and can be used in various situations. That is why people incorporate emojis not only in the communication process but also in photo tagging.

Part 2. The Benefits of Adding Emojis to Your Photos

Inserting emojis into the photos that you take has the following advantages:

· Add humor to your photos

The most common intent behind the addition of emojis to one’s pictures is to bring humor. This can be used in images where one of the components of the image is changed slightly to make the other elements funny. For example, if there are two laughing faces or some other funny figure, or a humorous object, etc. That makes the overall feel of that image light.

· Enhancing the visual appeal of images

It does not matter what the topic is, whenever we refer to photos, what we are dealing with is a visual narrative. When using images, you can include emojis, and thus, it helps improve the appearance of your image. With the help of emojis, some viewers' attention shifts to certain areas of the photo, blank areas can be made attractive, or some color can be added.

It is also possible to apply a related theme to the images using emojis in conjunction with the color or style of the photo. It can prove beneficial for say Instagram posts or blogs where you want all your images to look pleasing and uniform.

· Increasing social media engagement

Instagram and Facebook post hundreds of millions of photos a day while on Twitter millions of users share photos. This means that it is not very often that one gets to make a difference. However, incorporating emojis for the photos can be of benefit since it is known to boost engagement by making the images livelier and more enjoyable.

Such photos are more likely to get more likes, shares, and comments than normal photos. This is especially important for influencers, brands, or businesses that need an expansion of a presence on a social network. Emojis are call-to-actions, they incite further engagement, giving you more traffic on your social media platforms.

· Improving e-commerce credibility

In the context of e-commerce companies, it is also possible to use emojis on product images in a way that improves trust and engages the audience.

Emojis can bring human-feel to product photos, taking away that robotic and uninhabited aspect of a photo. There is the use of emojis to emphasize a particular product feature or the emotions that the product may create.

For instance, a happy face drawn on a picture of a comfortable sofa should be enough to condition your potential clients into considering comfort when looking at the furniture.

 It may assist in the development of a positive association between you and your target customers which will make them trust your brand and buy a product.

Similarly, there will be a rotation button at the mid-bottom. Click it and move the cursor to rotate the image as much as you want. With insMind you can do much more than as described in some creative methods below:

· Creating fun captions in images

Instead of writing the text right below the picture, use emojis, which help narrate an emotion or a story that can be placed on the picture. For example, if one places a sun emoji and a palm tree on a picture that was taken during a vacation it will bring context to the picture.

· Adding humor to your group images

It is always fun to take lots of photos with friends and relatives, especially in groups, but at times the outcome looks formal or rather bland. It could be humorous to add emojis in these pictures. For instance, if a member is making a face like smiling, frowning, or grinning you can use emojis to overemphasize the face.

You can also use emojis to tag objects to people in the photo, for example placing a crown on a person’s head or putting sunglasses on someone. By doing this you will not only make the image more fun but also give it that special touch which your friends or family will appreciate.

· Highlighting specific details in images

In a picture, emojis can also be utilized to highlight certain aspects of the picture. For instance, if you want to comment on an image and the picture depicts food, then you may use a 'heart' or 'thumbs-up' emoji to show how much you liked the food.

Likewise, if you need to point to a specific part of a product description, an arrow emoji will direct the viewers' attention to that area.
