As the clock ticks, the past increases as the road to the future recedes and all we’re left with at the end of our lives are our own memories. In nature, memories are forged in fire; they are the never ending rings inside the trunk of a tree well lived, a carved valley cut from a millennia of wear, or the sprawled and tangled roots of an ancient tree. These are the physical memories that tell a story of the past. And yet, at the end of our lives, all we really have are our memories. Our life experiences are a compilation of memories, stored away, preserved in the quiet places of our minds. But inevitably, these places become even more quiet as life gets louder, and sometimes what we have forgotten may be far more powerful than what we actually remember. We search our minds, we close our eyes and imagine ourselves together. The feeling of a fleeting touch becomes evasive, and we can no longer call upon the sound of laughter, the subtle smiles, or just how the sun set that day. But then, it happens; a spark. The brief hint of a smell, a familiar sound, a feeling – a spark triggered by a photograph, a video. We close our eyes and experience the moment just as we did that day – finger tips touching, his stubble against your cheek, how soft her hair was, the sound of applause as you commit your life to one another. Memories give meaning and defy time. This is why we’re here. We’re memory keepers – rememberers. Your wedding, like everything else, will fade with time to the quiet corners of your mind. Through photo and video, we keep memories close; we keep memories safe. You will keep them alive.
