The Significance Of Life Story Pictures

By Imelda Reid


Pictures are images that represent an actual object, event person or moment. They capture a lot of information. Life story pictures tell a lot about the life of an individual or a group of people. They keep a record of things and freeze instances that mark important happenings or stages in life.

The images can be presented in different forms. Some are hand made in form of paintings. Others are captures with a camera. The photos can be produced with a film developed in a dark room. They can also be produced instantly with a digital camera. Paintings are more expensive as the art work is appreciated as talent.

These images are very common. The information in them can last for decades if they are well kept and taken care of. A key advantage is that they are easy to make and they are not expensive as other forms of storing information.

Historically they are traced in the Victorian rule in Britain. The culture was started by the royal family and other important families. They employed painters who painted their images and those of their homes. This images were real life sizes and they were hanged on their mansion homes.They normally presented the family members with their unique features.

With time, the wall hangings made a collection. The collection was used to show a certain pattern that carried some information of the family tree that they were proud of. It is from this ancient practise that the art evolved.

In our modern days, photos do not have to be in walls. Albums can be used to store them, and better still they can be stored the digital way in computers and other electronic storage devices. They can also be kept in picture frames and hanged on the walls or on chests and cupboards at eye level.

To create them start taking photos at very important functions like birthdays, graduations and weddings. Try also to capture very important moments that have a meaning to you, your friends, your family and even work mates.

The beauty with photos is that they have a way of reminding us of the people who made an impact in our lives. Ensure your images contain faces who mattered to you and shaped you in a way. It is also advisable to capture all the emotions that come with a moment. Whether it is happiness, sadness, surprise, shock or excitement. Due to changes, people may leave us but the photos have a way of reminding us of them.

Work with a theme that you are very comfortable with. Whether its people based, one that shows events or places that you loved. Ensure that the theme comes out clearly and people will understand it and feel what you wanted to bring out. A good theme allows people to read and appreciate your thoughts.

The mode of presentation makes all the difference as it sells your thoughts to the audience you have in mind. Albums are more of the traditional way of storage, the demerit is that they are less visible thus limiting the audience. Electronic modes of display are the best currently. They can be showcased in a slide mode with small captions that describe the moment. Hanging them on a spacious wall remains a favourite to many.
