Steven Addis is a person whose passion is photography. But in this Ted talk, he shares with the public his 15 most treasured photos which most of them were taken by random tourists.
It all started when, Steve Addis and his family went to New York City. He stood on a corner holding his 1-year-old daughter in his arms and his wife took a photo. Back then, they had no idea how much this trip would change their lives, since the image has inspired an annual father-daughter ritual, where Addis and his daughter pose for the same picture, on the same corner, each year. It has really become sacred to them.
Soon Addis realized that these photos are not only a reflection of a specific moment of their lives, but also a way to reflect on their times and see how they change from year to year, and not just
physically,but in every way. Because even if we take the same photo every year, our perspectives change, and he could see it in the way her daughter reaches new milestones and how she interacts with and sees everything.
He also ended up with the conclusion that one of the most important things we all make are
memories. So, he encourages everyone to take an active role in consciously creating memories and to not hesitate to go up to strangers and ask if they could take a picture for you.
