The images in my parents family album would be the catalyst for my love of Photography and my strong belief that a still image can resonate with you in ways that video cannot.  Images viewed on a screen have a different quality to them than one that you can touch and hold in your hands. The impact of a printed image is that you don’t need another device to be able to look at it. It stays with you as long as you choose to have it around. Some of my treasured shots of family and friends are scattered around my apartment either on my walls or inserted into books or loose on a side table. They are with me whenever I need them and the best thing is I don’t need to plug anything in to be in their company.
