favorite picture you've never seen

Every photographer has one (or 100). Photographs that have never made it to the surface, for whatever reason. It may be lit incorrectly, blurry, or it doesn't go with the style you're trying to create for yourself. 
I have so many of those! It doesn't feel right to keep them hidden on my external hard drive. I'd love to start a weekly post featuring photographs that aren't perfect, but favorites none the less.



I absolutely love this photograph of Cayla.
Who would have all this grace at the age of 5? No one. 
Ok, maybe I'm giving her too much credit. She is the goofiest little kid I know, and I've been told she's just like me when I was that age. I give my brother credit for having to go through it all again with his daughter this time. 
 But boy she knows when that camera is pointed her way.

So..Friday is my birthday.
25.
Old.
Quarter Century.
Oldddddddd.

To celebrate, I wanted to do everything that makes me happy.
So that means, lots of mexican food.
Going here because I'm strange and love abandoned shiz.
Also going here because I've been dying for some pistachio ice cream!

Spending the rest of the weekend with family, and perhaps more apartment hunting.

Have a great week everyone!


P.S Thank you so much for the comments on the previous post. I'm really glad to know people have my back, and like the direction(s) this blog is going. It means so much to me!
