Photographs are sacred, because they capture moments in time. A photo can be archived and treasured for generations. It is unique to have pictures of people who are no longer with you, pets that you had when you were a child or maybe a picture of your first car. When you take a look at your photos, it is extraordinary that an image can take you back to that moment or make you reminisce on a particular connection you had with a person, an object or even an animal. With such a significant change about to occur in my life, I wanted to document some of the things that I feel will have particular significance in the future. I have lived in the same place for the majority of my life now, and am about to move very far away from a place that is so filled with precious things that I will miss. Through that process, I am leaving behind many things that I love and I wanted to document those things that I feel I will miss the most. I wanted to make photographs that I will be glad to have in the future.
