I’ve been taking photos of my feet for at least five years now; it started as a fun little thing I did once in a while and has now grown to a full-on compulsion. I collect photos of my feet like other might collect cheap keychains or magnets.
Do you collect certain kinds of photos?

Jumping shots are a common occurrence during my travels.

That jelly fish is huge!

I like to take pictures of my feet too! I think it stems from my love of shoes, but it’s also such a wonderful way to document the ‘I Was Here’ moment and feeling. I also like taking pictures of my shadow.

Oh, the shadow is a good one! I have no idea why I started taking photos of my feet…

I accidentally started collecting shoe shots of my husband and I. I’m thinking of making a gallery wall of them. (I even made sure we got shoe photos taken on our wedding day!)

Cara-Mia – That is so cute! I’ve definitely seen some of them on your blogs and they are adorable.

Amie – That is an amazing idea! I see that all the time but I never thought to start documenting it…

Kristina – Thank you very much! I sometimes forget, too…

I just started doing this mostly because I have a pretty new pair of jeweled flats–wish I would have started earlier, I love this collection of photos!
