Medium: Photography / digital art

Censored by: Instagram!

Reason given: My account just disappeared without notification

What date were you censored?: 11/29/2021

Was there notification of removal and if so was a reason given?: No notification, just the the complete deactivation of my account

Was there the opportunity to appeal? If so, did you appeal and what was the response?: I sent multiple messages a day for a couple of weeks and never got any response

What, if any, were the consequences of the removal for you? Please give details.: I lost a community of nearly 7000 which took me years to build, among my audience were a lot of well-known names of the photography / design world. I used instagram as my business card and as a way to keep in touch with the professional in the industry, I can see I lost my credibility and opportunities such as appearing in podcasts, interviews, or even sponsor opportunities by brands. I was about to launch a mentoring program for photographers and now I have no community to promote it.

Comments: Thank you so much for putting the effort into creating this, it matters A LOT <3
