Why Do You Take Photographs?

Hi mjmlagat. My family told me that I should have taken a photograpy course instead of nutrition. Because I love to take pictures all the time. I take pictures of special family gatherings, the beauty of nature and most especially, I made it a point to take pictures of my son as he grew up. I have the same reason as yours. I love to take pictures to serve as my memories. And I even made my own family albums by scratch. It took a long time to put them together but it was so worth it. My husband even told me a thousand times that I should just buy a ready-made album and just stick those pictures in it. But I just keep telling him that the albums I made are much more special. I take pictures of my family because it's nice to sit down and have those albums on my lap. And look at the pictures. Some pictures make me smile with its memories, some even make me laugh out loud. But the thing is, when I grow so old that I can barely stand up on my own, it's nice to remember so many of those memories through those photographs.

I love to take pics of myself,my dog and my boyfriend(now my ex).Like all Asian girls you may know,I took a lot of pics of myself and I posted them on my facebook or sent them to my friends.Now since I broke up with my ex,I can only look at his pics in my laptop when I really really miss him.Sad....

I take photos so I can look back on good memories and share good memories with others.

I love taking photographs. I'm an artist. Like most, if not all, I have a certain urge to create art, to create photographs. So there's one reason. I also like remembering the beautiful places that I see.

This is a good topic,I always like to see the photos,it can make me recall all the past,but I have no the hobby as I am always busy for the work!Thanks!

I love taking photographs because It captures and stores memories. I usually use my camera phone and I take pictures of myself especially when I feel beautiful on a certain day. I also take pictures of my baby because I cannot bring back the days that progress and development occurs. I take pictures of all her first in her life. Like her first smile, her first laughter, her first tummy time alone. I super love pictures. It brings the past memories alive.

photography is also one of my hobbies.i do like to take photographs especially of newborn.i like to caapture their innocence on the camera.

I like to take photographs because I'd like to keep the moment not only in my memories, but also to share with others. Also, as I'm growing older, when I look back at the photos I take today, it makes me remember what'd happened today. Sometimes, it's nice to look at the beautiful things in the pictures always. I like to take any pictures that I think it's worth to keep it as memory, especially taking pictures of my lovely dog. I always like to take pictures of the food, flowers, plants, and nice scenery.

Ya i think we take photographs to make memories save in our mind.Photography is a right way of keeping memories leave.Thats why at every special occassion or funtion photo graps is taken.

I take photographs just to capture some good memories which can be seen later on to enjoy it again and again

A person can't remember everything. He is having memory but for certain time it can remember few things not all. So if we take a photograph then when we see those photographs then we can remember those days easily. It's really nice to remember those olden days by seeing photography.

To capture the moment. To have things to look at later on to remember those moments. We take a lot of pictures of special occasions, but even more of just random scenes, of eachother, anything that is impressive at the moment.

I also like to take photograph. I like the beauty of the nature, the plants, the animals. Everytime there is a picture taking I am always their photgrapher, so most of the time I have a limited photo of myself. I like also taking picture of some fishes, birds, etc..

i take photography as a form of"i was there". i like to see people reactions when i give them the photos for free. it also a form of telling people what i do and what are my interest are. i don't have a particular subject. if i see anything that is interesting or catches my attention i would photograph it.

I love taking pictures especially when I visit new places! I love to travel more and continue taking more pictures so I can preserve the experience. I'm planning to compile all those pictures to create a scrap book. It shows you really are passionate about taking photography because it shows on your profile's picture. You have the eye for it! =)

I love photograhy. In order to keep the memory of beautiful scene I ever seen and the ones I love, I take photos. When figuring over the photos, I feel warm and comfortable.

I think I can stand in your side. Yes, photography is a good thing, it is the mirror of the beautiful world. And now I study about tourism, so take pictures is a habbit. If you went to a new place for the first time, if there were something happen in the specail point of your life, and if you did somethinf with people you espected, taking pictures can help you remind your sweet memories. When you are old, you would tellyour grandchildren what you did in your early life, is that sound good? And you can share your unforgetful trip with what you photograph.

I recently got into photography this last year. I went in head over heals paying for a new digital camera and an extra lens. Then I got the neat Canon carrying bag and a tripod. I enjoy going out into the woods and trying to capture pictures of wildlife. It is challenging and rewarding. I enjoy taking photos because I can capture a moment or scene forever. I can return back to that place or event whenever I want to. I just wish I could make so money off of my photographs. I seen some stock photo sites, but I don't know how they will turn out. I will continue doing photography even if I never make a dime off it.

I love taking photos as well. Its a good remembrance of happy memories and great views. With the recent surge of camera phones and digital cameras, it is so easy to capture everyday moments. The onset of internet based social networks made also photography a hit. I usually take lots of photos of my friends and families. It gives me a sense of joy looking at photos, it brings you back to the very day that a certain photo is taken. Most often than not, we take photos of ourselves with funny and weird expressions, whic usually turns out to be hilarious after a few months or years.
