It’s fascinating to see a lifetime of memories in pictures. We’ve greatly changed the circumstances of photography over the years. We used to only have the ability to take them for special occasions, and candid photos were rare. Now we snap away with our phones, even through our watches or on sky faring drones.

I’ve always had a connection to photography, because it sparks emotion. I’ve mostly practiced landscape, street, and wildlife photography, because that’s the kind of traveling I do. But looking through family photos today, I realized the incredible importance of capturing moments with those you love.
