PHOTOGRAPHS IN A SHOEBOX PODCAST
What do old photos mean to you?
This podcast aims to encourage you to cherish your own photographs knowing that they will be and can be enjoyed by the next generation, as well as now.
I hope to inspire you to preserve your memories and will be sharing ideas on how to do that, plus inviting guests to share their stories behind a treasured photograph.
I’ve been a family photographer for nearly 20 years at my portrait studio in Harlow, Essex, plus wife, daughter, and mother to a tween, so I’ve seen all angles of why photographs are important in our lives.
As a daughter discovering old family photographs and being unable to find out who most of them are (I can only guess), to my own daughter enjoying her baby photos and other family photos I want to inspire you to take those everyday photos with the camera you always have with you (your phone), and preserve what you have.
It’s about happy memories, and your legacy, and as a bonus studies have shown having photos of your family around the house boosts your children’s self-esteem – so keep updating!
