We live in a world where everyone has endless access to a camera and pictures are constantly being taken. But does that mean we appreciate pictures anymore? Are we doing pictures right?
Of course, pictures remain as important as ever. But our captured memories are only as valuable as the way we choose to preserve them. Our cherished moments – that we thought would last generations in digital form – could disappear in the blink of an eye with one quick lightning strike or misplaced magnet.
Although I am definitely a product of the digital age, even I recognize that it’s more than just coincidence that all of those pictures I see regularly are printed pictures.
Printed pictures are incredibly important as they not only allow us to capture a certain moment in time, but also preserve it for generations to come and so are able to relive the wonderful memory or experience again and again. Even more, printed pictures are shared easily with others, and authenticate our important past.
