We’re often tempted to curate—to keep only the “good” photos, the flattering ones, the perfect moments. But perfection isn’t what you’ll miss. You’ll miss the ordinary Tuesday. The messy hair. The expression no one else saw.
Why it matters:
Years later, the slightly-out-of-focus photo of your father laughing in the backyard will matter more than any professionally posed portrait. The imperfect shots are the real ones. They capture life, not performance.
What to do instead:
Keep everything. Box it. Label it loosely.
Don’t feel pressured to organize or digitize immediately
If you must discard duplicates, offer them to other family members first
A gentle truth: The photos you think are “bad” today will be someone’s treasured window into the past tomorrow. Future generations won’t care about lighting or composition. They’ll care about seeing their grandmother young, their grandfather smiling, their great-aunt in bell-bottoms.
