It is but cliche to say that bloggers are fond of photos, and basically it is the meat of this work. We share so much about this life and discoveries and needless to say, photos put the strength to this documentation and give life to our stories. For us, the quality of the photo matters very much. To be honest, it is not just for bloggers but even to a lot of people who value memories – with family, friends or special someone.

Moreover, as the world began embracing modernization, there goes the advancement of photography, and way people document their life. Gone are the days where entities stick on film printing. Most people also use, if not, switched to digital. Years later then, smartphones came, and here comes jump shots, blogger poses (Haha!) groupies and selfies.
