Presets can help this but not always as it ultimately depends on what type of photo you take, what the lighting is like, what time of day it is, etc. I think the most important thing to focus on when you're curating your grid is to try and stick to a certain temperature when editing all of your photos. Therefore it can be a little bit harder to keep things tying in together when you're sharing a mixture of portraits and flat lays to outdoors and home interior snaps.
I tend to focus on sharing my life and things I love rather than sticking to something specific, which I think is what most instagrammers do these days. You can see that my grid is made up of lots of different styles of photography, that's because I don't really have a 'niche' and I just share whatever I like/is relative to me at the time. You may not think my grid is your idea of a cohesive grid either, but to be honest, I'm not sure why you're here reading my tips if that's the case. However, I'm constantly working really hard on creating my idea of the perfect grid and most of the time I use a grid planner to get it looking close to spot on. Or sometimes I like to be a bit more instant (most of my insta photos are taken the same day to be fair!) and it doesn't fit in perfectly but I just upload it anyway. I'd be lying if I said mine looks perfect all of the time, sometimes I can have brand work that needs to go live and doesn't quite fit in with my grid at that exact time. You're just portraying a selection of your own photographs rather than ones you have purchased. Well, think of your instagram grid like a gallery wall - there really isn't much difference.
The image for this post is pretty fitting, when you create a gallery wall in your home, you usually want it to all tie in together and look cohesive and colour coordinated.
