Photographs are an essential part of life. Without them, we would be limited on things to look back on.
We think of photos as memories or keepsakes. We hold on to them because they mean something to us. A picture can tell so many stories and remind us of times we thought we forgot. How many times has a friend shared an old photograph and 100 memories start rushing in?! Or when you stumble across a photo of yourself as a kid and you start remembering that day or things that you did during that time? It’s a bittersweet feeling.
I’ve always loved taking pictures and now looking back, I’m SO GLAD I took SO MANY! I have a never ending hard drive of photos I’ll be able to keep forever and share with my family and friends.
I made a blog post almost a year ago of a handful of pictures I took. I wanted to make a similar blog post again because some are just too good to not share! I usually try and post these on Pinterest when I can as well! Enjoy!
P.S. – I made sure to add a good amount of my kitty, Salem!😺

I love this idea. I deleted all my pictures from high school, right up to the end of college, so there’s just a massive gap. Looking back I feel I should have kept some, but those were mostly bad times that I just wanted to move on and make new memories (a bit extreme but yhh). But these are some great pictures (and imma have to steal some of those quotes lol).

I love taking pictures. And video. It’s so much fun to look back on those moments, especially the ones you didn’t realize you captured.
