The photos of Tori Maisey by Mario Peña for Cake Magazine are surely breathtaking. When taking photos, there's always a chance that something will go wrong, whether it be [the lens](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moon-walker-multi-cam), the focus or the position of the subjects. At times, these moments can completely ruin the photos, but occasionally, these moments produce stunning captures, such as that of this featured series.

The pictures feature [blurred edges](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mac-cosmetics-and-ella-gross) and [mirror images](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hooptical) that appear as though the camera has malfunctioned. However, this is what makes these pics distinct. As Tori Maisey gazes into the distance, a faint silhouette of her reflection is recognized on the opposite side of the frame. These details are subtle and force viewers to look twice to see these intricate features.
