My parents had some old biscuit tins full of photos from their early years. Work dos, holidays, photos of me and my family growing up, our pets, early memories (for them, rather than me.) I can't count how many hours I spent sat sorting through those photos and asking my Mum questions about who was in this one, or where this one was taken, or what year this was. There were probably a few hundred photos. And this was in a time when it was costly to both take and develop photos and a pain to physically store them. I would've gladly sat looking at thousands of photos if they were there. So now that I'm married and we have a little girl, I think about what our daughter's equivalent to my tin of photos may be. Maybe we do keep too many photos, but maybe she will enjoy looking at our many thousands of photos. Maybe she'll enjoy the technical challenge of making sense of her life in photos and videos. Or maybe she will hate us for storing so much! Either way I think, if I were her, I'd rather have more than less.
