Keep me, Protect me, Share me, and I will live forever.

This is a reblog from my photography blog, It's not quite professional enough... I don't know clients really care.

Keep me, Protect me, Share me, and I will live forever.

Here's a really cool commercial I ran across and wanted to share. One of the coolest things as a photographer are the moments I'm trusted with capturing. For some, we remember a wedding. For others we remember the children in all their different phases growing up. For others we look back and remember a friend or family member who passed away. For all- photographs have words to speak and they bring memories alive.

The quirks, the playfulness, the attitude, the style, the edge of an individuals personality. As I look through old photographs of my grandpa who passed away, there are so many little things in those photos that I treasure. And while he's not here anymore, for some reason I can feel his presence.

So: "Shhhh, listen, can you hear them? ... The pictures are talking but you have to be quiet, very very quiet. ... What are they saying? Keep me, Protect me, Share me, and I will live forever."
