The Art of Memory Keeping: Why Photos Matter

We take more photos today than at any point in human history. Yet, we look at them less. They sit in our camera rolls, buried under screenshots and memes, thousands of miles deep in a digital scroll.

Visual Journaling

Photos are powerful memory triggers. A single image can transport you back to a specific moment, recalling feelings and smells that text alone might miss. This is why visual journaling is such a compelling practice.

Curating vs. Hoarding

The key to effective memory keeping is curation. Instead of keeping 50 shots of the same sunset, pick the one that captures the feeling best. Add a caption. Explain why you took it.

Context is King

A photo without context loses value over time. Who were you with? What were you laughing about? In Timeline, every photo entry is an opportunity to add that context. It turns a "nice picture" into a "cherished memory".
