@hasandahsin could you provide steps to reproduce this issue?
Thank you

I have just installed this package, and receive the same error.

It stops (for me) on

$medias = Instagram::getMedias('mikeescamilla', 10);

Adding

Unirest\Request::verifyPeer(false);

before

use InstagramScraper\Instagram;

fixes this

Hello,
I tried the solution proposed by danielmarkavis , but after some good results with 'getMediasByTag', I get the following error message:
"Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Unirest\Exception' with message 'Unknown SSL protocol error in connection to www.instagram.com:443 ' in C:\Users\Administrator\vendor\mashape\unirest-php\src\Unirest\Request.php on line 476"

Add: the problem seems occur in sporadic way...just made another query and all is gone fine, without error message...thanks a lot for you attention...;)

The problem is solved if I make a call from a Linux/Lamp server...problem persist only on Wamp environment
