Printing Photographs – Keeping your Memories Forever
Years ago we printed all our photographs. Even the ones which had heads cut off or blurry faces and red eyes. In these enlightened days of digital photography, the camera is kind enough to focus, reduce the vampire eye look and allow us to edit afterwards so that every image is a keeper. But we don’t always keep them. Photographs get lost from all kinds of devices and with them we lose those precious memories. Lost phones, failed hard drives and the dreaded ‘delete’ button pressed in error cause the loss of treasured images. Those captured moments cannot be replaced.
It is definitely time to consider keeping these pictured memories forever.
Back Up:
Back up to the Cloud if using an iPhone and even if you lose your phone, the photographs will still be there. Use a hard drive or even a simple USB to store the more important images. Don’t imagine that Facebook will keep them forever. Who remembers Bebo and all the images uploaded to that!! Save your best pics to Instagram and the new look Flickr website if you don’t mind them being shared and commented on.
Digital printing:
Enjoy your photographs, every day, by digitally printing the more precious ones and framing for your walls.
