Why Family Portraits are Important

The Meaning Behind Capturing Your Memories

Family portraits are important for many reasons. Not only do they capture your real life moments and freeze time, but they document growth and show the world your cherished relationships.

For some people, having tangible portraits such as a print, canvas or framed portrait, is a way to remember a loved one who has passed away. Having a tangible portrait allows us to have a more emotional connection and relive all the cherished memories we shared.

For others, having portraits are a way to document changes in their lives and see how much their children have changed.

All these reasons are important.

So, why is it important to have tangible photos in our home?

Not only for the reasons already listed, but also because they are a part of our history. They serve as a way to connect to our past, learn more about our history and help us preserve our legacy for future generations.

 What if you did not have any baby photos when your son or daughter was planning a wedding? What if they had nothing to show?

For most of us, family is the foundation of our lives. Our family has supported us through thick and thin, and they are the ones we turn to when we need a shoulder to cry on.

Families give us a sense of identity and belonging and shape who we are and how we see the world. So, it's no wonder that family photos are so important. It is because these photos help us remember the people who have made us who we are.

 

Celebrating our Heritage

Family photos allow us to celebrate our heritage-who we are. They help us to connect with our ancestors! When we look at photos of our grandparents and family members who have lived 100 years before we were born, we can learn about how we came to be. We can hear about our history and where we came from. This is how we see the traditions that have been passed down through our generations; these photos give us a great connection to our past.

Think about the future when your children are grown up. What if they did not have any photos of themselves when they were younger? It is almost as if they did not exist. Having tangible photos to pass down to your family members is KEY to establishing your legacy and heritage.

 

The Good Times

Family photos can also remind us of all the good times from our past. They help us to remember the happy moments we shared, the connections we have and can be a source of joy and inspiration.

Because of that, they serve as a "story". One that can be told to many people for generations to come; which keeps your history, legacy, and traditions alive.
