Behind every girl with an amazing Instagram is a disgruntled man taking her pictures, having to deal with her incessant need for the perfect shot.

The funny people over at the Mystery Hour have put together a video to let all the Instagram Husbands out there know that they’re not alone. It’s a hard gig, having to do everything from climbing railings to get the perfect angle to putting off food until a delicious snapshot is taken. As one guy in the video puts it, they’re basically human selfie sticks.

Fellow Instagram Husbands can submit their photos to instagramhusband@gmail.com, where they’ll end up on the support network’s website
