January Photo a Day Challenge

by Samantha ~ February 1st, 2012. Filed under: photo roundup, vision.

For the last 31 days, I’ve been participating in the January Photo a Day Challenge on Instagram. Each day had a photo theme, and I tried my damnest to keep up. Some days I missed and made up for on the next, but for the most part, I was pretty diligent about it. Instagram is definitely my favorite app, and this made it even more fun.


Days 1 – 6
You :: Breakfast :: Something You Adore
Letterbox :: Something You Wore :: Makes You Smile

Fun Facts!

Sexy Mouth Shot means I’m not wearing any makeup, and probably look like I got hit in the face with Steve Buscemi.
I have black French Vanilla coffee almost every morning. It’s helped me break my $50+ a week Starbucks habit.
Chicken really, really loves that red blanket.

Day 7 :: Favorite

My favorite photo from our wedding – this is a photo of a screencap of it!  It was taken on the steps of NYC’s City Hall by our friend Regina.

Days 8 – 13

Your Sky :: Daily Routine :: Childhood
Where You Sleep :: Close-Up :: In Your Bag

The sky photo was taken on a super lazy day. The farthest I got outside was in my doorway to snap that.
One day I want to do an In Your Bag post. There’s something really fascinating about that meme. I browse the Flickr pool a lot more than I’d like to admit openly.

Days 14 – 15
Something You’re Reading :: Happiness

I was reading The Hunger Games trilogy during the first half of January. Stacked recap soon!
We have matching knuckle tattoos that say That Feel. It’s by Tom Waits.

Days 16 – 19
Morning :: Water :: Something You Bought :: Sweet

The Daphne Guiness for MAC compact was an impuse buy, and I now adore it.

Days 20 – 21
Someone You Love :: Reflection

He has no idea that photo was taken.
Day 21 was our first day in New Orleans!

Days 22 – 30
Your Shoes :: Something Old :: Guilty Pleasure
Something You Made :: Colour :: Lunch
Light :: Inside Your Fridge :: Nature

Something Old is Domilise’s Po-Boy shop. I can’t find the exact date it opened, but it’s been around awhile now.
Inside Your Fridge is actually inside our freezer. Earlier that day, Ryan & I found that antique set of bar glasses in a tiny little shop in the French Quarter.

Day 31 :: You, Again

I always make the same face in photos.

You can find me on Instagram as SamSmith! I’ll be doing a February Photo a Day, too!
