'The Ones We Love' is a blog, curated by Lindley Warren, that's dedicated to cataloging images of loved ones -- whether it's the photographer's latest paramour or their friends and family.

The project invites photographers to submit the photos with the intention that they will be [exhibited in an online show](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/profiles-in-color). What separates this blog from being yet another Tumblr chock-full of the tanned flesh, long limbs and pearly whites of beautiful people, might have something to do with Warren's careful curation.

More than a glossy, [coffee table-worthy tome](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/amusebouche) of perfectly staged photography, the project is a celebration of [up-and-coming talent](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/summer-vonholten) such as Matt Tammaro, Cait Oppermann, Stephanie Noritz and D'Angelo Williams, among others. The result it is a true labor of love.
