The Rite Bite is my ultimate resource to showcase my passion for food with the world by posting the images that I take, interacting with my followers and connecting with the community of foodies that exists on Instagram and beyond.

I am here to take these fears away- to show you that creating an Instagram account to showcase your love and appreciation for food is not only rewarding but filled with constant excitement and fun.
