WE USE INSTANT FILM PHOTOGRAPHY TO CAPTURE MOMENTS.

We're creating memories and giving photographs to more people, especially those living with less.

WHO WE ARE

GiveMemories2014-9

Give Memories is an effort to capture people and moments, to share them relentlessly and to allow these treasures to warm our hearts, give us strength, encourage us to grow. Photographs are simple inspiring reminders of moments in time and I want everyone to experience this small but powerful joy.

Photography has become such an accessible form of documentation for us; most of us even carry a camera in our pockets every day. But still for many people, photography is a costly luxury. The digital age is also removing tangible photographs from everyone’s day to day lives.
We are changing that; we are giving tangible memories to more people, especially those who have less access to photography.

The idea is simple; we set up a camera, coordinate a PHOTO DAY and create memories. We give photographs, instantly printed on site, to everyone.

I hope this project resonates with you and would love to have you along for the journey! Please reach out and share your stories and your ideas. This passion project is still evolving and I’d love for you to join me.
