My uncle passed and my grandmother wants access to his pics on Instagram but his page is private. Is there any way I can gain access? I have visited many sites and have tried every hacking site known. I just need help to view his photos for my grandmother.

2Have you contacted Instagram? I'm not sure what their policy is regarding deceased users. For what it's worth, this is why we all need to have a plan for our electronic selves. – ale Sep 9 '13 at 1:19
Per their policy, you can’t get login access to the account. However, you could try and ask for an archive of the photos.
