In her last days she wanted to take pictures with the family, with the places she's been and with the friends she had. She always wanted a camera with her, she wants to take as many pictures as she can. With all the pose and the smiles, we never thought it was her left picture taking moments. Though it's good that we have the most recent picture of her face now. We missed her a lot. She's truly loved by many...
this is a picture of her the one in the left with my youngest sis on the right side...

I love to take pictures. I do it almost everytime I see something interesting. I am having a vacation now away from work. Recently I took pictures of our old photos. I will make a movie for family and friends and upload some in facebook. I am so sorry to hear that you lost your sister. I may not know what happened but I am glad that she left you and the rest of the family with good and fun memories of her. I also lost an older brother when I was 17 and he is 20. It was so sad and hard but my mom and I just held on to each other. My condolences.

My sister is just 17. We are in much grief to lose her, but what's comforting is that we have recent pictures of her before she left. We will surely miss her.

I understand you. At 17, or the teen years is the time for us to shine. In such moments we show our talents and cuteness. I am glad you love your sister so much. I know you'll miss her, but don't ever forget you had such a loving sister.

I like taking pics of my son but rarely of myself. I like taking pics of special moments and sometimes when i'm sad and it's raining i would try to capture the raindrops on a puddle of water.
When my mom brought her first automatic camera, she trusted me with it despite the fact that i was the youngest as she sees in me the passion of taking pictures and i was good at it anyway.
Surely your sister will be missed, her presence and her youth. You will always have that picture of her smiling and very young until the day that you grow old. She will always be remembered.

Yeah, we missed her every time we look at her pictures. Her smiles and her make faces. She's a very lovely and happy lady at the age of 17. She is much loved by God that she was taken to join Him in His realm as early as 17.
Camera really captures moments and those moments will be remembered every time we look at those photos taken.
I didn't know you were good at photography. I gave up being a photo journalist because of camera's cost. I love camera too. And I noticed I don't have much pictures on my phone than with my siblings. They would go crazy taking pictures every time they were given the chance to hold my phone. :)

My birthday was just two weeks ago and the thing that I wanted to get for my birthday was a little point and shoot camera that I could carry in my purse all the time so that I would not miss a photographic moment. I've had a DSLR camera since my son was eight months old (he is going on five years old now). Then I got the little Nikon for my birthday and I've been carrying that in my purse since then. I would say that I take at least one picture every other day.

Sorry to hear that. No wonder that she wants to take a lot of pictures I think it is for you to cherish memories. I am camera conscious that is why I don't take a lot of pictures.

Pictures are great because when you look back at them it brings the memories back of that great time in your life. I like to take pictures of almost everything! A picture says a thousand words!

I often take photos. As you know, the digital camera is just convenient to take photos anytime you want. And I have a child and this is why I love take photos for him. I like to record his growth and one day when he grows up and watches it again, he will be happy.
I love China

It is actually very good that you developed all the good memories just before she passed. I know that they hurt badly right now but in time you will finally appreciate that you had those taken! Awesome!

Well nowsday handphone camera are changing the way people take photos, henc candid photos are easiy snap and quickly done with camera available in the handphone.Furthermore, with the cheap available of flash card or microSD cards which can store photos encourages people to take photos in large amount.Therefore initially when i got my cheap camera hp i take photos of almost everything.

I'm glad you have so many photos to remember her by. You can always see them and think of those moments as everlasting pieces of your time with her. A memory is timeless, some people you never forget.

I love to take photos! Unfortunately, I don't carry my camera round with me, because it's quite a big one. However, I intend to get a small one for my birthday that I can fit into my bag.
I do have a camera on my cellphone, and I've used that quite a lot, but I don't like using it, because the photo quality isn't the best.
I think photos are the best way to preserve memories, whether it be an emotional moment, or a funny moment. I want to leave this life knowing that I have a 'hard copy' of my memories to leave for others.

I am very sorry to hear about your sister's demise. My condolences are with you and your family.
I enjoy taking photographs but i have this need to look perfect before i face camera. My sister is pretty addicted to taking photographs. There is not a single day she doesn't take photos of her. She does all sorts of pose in front of her laptop's webcam and there are thousands of photos within few months. I am not that crazy but yes i like capturing beautiful moments with my camera.
