For context, if you are shy or uncomfortable having your pictures taken, please reconsider! My uncle passed away due to cancer a few years ago and we realized that he didn’t like his pictures taken… So now all we have to remember him by are a handful of pictures.
Also if you’re the one making photos usually make sure you appear in front of the camera sometimes!
Condolences, friend. I agree with this post. I lost my best friend in 2017, and it’s not that he didn’t like having his picture taken, we just didn’t take very many pictures when we were together. So now all I have to remember him by are a couple pics and very foggy memories of our inebriated shenanigans. And a couple of scars too, but I couldn’t actually tell you how those got there.
My mom doesn’t like having her picture taken, because she thinks she looks ugly (which isn’t true), but she still got her picture taken nevertheless, my sister got married last month and we all got our picture taken as a family. There’s still plenty of old pics of her in the memory books we still have to this day.
I’m sorry for your loss. That’s really unfortunate you only have few pictures of him, but it’s really better than nothing at all, to be honest.
condolences.
My sincere condolences.
We are in an age that this shouldn’t happen.
Phones to capture events should be an opertunity to capture videos and photos. Dinner with extended family, birthdays, holidays, vacations are best opertunity to do this.
On top of this, I’d add, share the photos/videos with everyone there, (be it Facebook, Google photos, Whatsapp, Discord…). Same concept applies to you, that photos you have, aren’t lost to your digital vault when it’s your time.
