The family photo album used to hold a treasured place in any home, but has fallen by the wayside since the dawn of digital photography. Nowadays, we take countless photos of the same thing, rarely moving them off our devices.
But when you watch a video like this, it’s a heart-warming reminder of the special way flipping through a real and tactile album can be something to share.
In his very simple video, US photographer Tim Kyle filmed himself and his two daughters working their way through a book of family photos. Seeing his children work their way from cover to cover, calling out family members and remembering family events is enough to make you want to start uploading your own photos to a printing service immediately.
While it might not be the most convenient way to deal with the countless image files on your smartphone, the quiet and universal charm of the video will show you that it really can be worth it. Check out the video below:
