I thought instagram owns all users photos? How does this work legally?

Hey
Good point! You actually own all your own content on Instagram and so can sell it as you wish.
When you sign up to Instagram, you grant them a broad set of rights - specifically a non-exclusive, royalty-free, transferable,worldwide license to use any images you post, but ownership remains with you.
Hope that clears it up :)
