Earlier this week I captured an image of a Christmas candle I’ve had since elementary school. In that post, I mentioned the importance of preserving those priceless memories that have become attached to different items or elements of our holiday.
Today I decided to shoot some images of ornaments that hold meaning for me. I started by looking at the tree and seeing which ornaments sparked memories and emotion for me. Then I positioned them where I could grab a shot.
I shot five tonight and plan to do a few more throughout the holiday season. Hopefully by the time we pack up the ornaments at the end of the year I’ll have captured all of the holiday elements that are near and dear to my heart.
Are you capturing and preserving holiday memories? If not, there’s no time like the present to get started!
