Instagram API/Scraping

Looking to create a tool that can collect information from instagram given a hashtag.

For example: Given the hashtag #wedding
https://www.instagram.com/explore/tags/wedding/

I want to fetch the following information from each post under this hashtag: id, timestamp, location if post is tagged with location, hashtags used in post OR in comments, any users that are tagged.

Example:

[{\u200b
id: Bh-anXVBDKw,
timestamp: 1524624301,
location: {\u200b
id: asheville-north-carolina,
latitude: 35.5951,
longitude: 82.5515
}\u200b,
hashtags: {\u200b
Weddings: __number of times hashtag appears in post or comments__,
Asheville: 5,
weddingphotography: 2,
ashevilleweddings: 6,
DestinationWeddings: 2,
ashevilleweddingphotographer: 1,
IDo: 1,
CarolinaBride: 1,
RealWeddings: 2
}\u200b,
tags: [
user1,
user2,
user3
]
}\u200b,
...]

I prefer the tool to be written in Python.

Deliverable is the tool that can output this JSON data given a tag. This can be gathered using the Instagram API if possible or scraping

Or if there is an existing library or tool that can do this, the deliverable can just be to show me how to leverage the tool.
