For context, if you are shy or uncomfortable having your pictures taken, please reconsider! My uncle passed away due to cancer a few years ago and we realized that he didn’t like his pictures taken… So now all we have to remember him by are a handful of pictures.
My sincere condolences.
We are in an age that this shouldn’t happen.
Phones to capture events should be an opertunity to capture videos and photos. Dinner with extended family, birthdays, holidays, vacations are best opertunity to do this.
On top of this, I’d add, share the photos/videos with everyone there, (be it Facebook, Google photos, Whatsapp, Discord…). Same concept applies to you, that photos you have, aren’t lost to your digital vault when it’s your time.
