Photography is an art or technology of producing images.
Photograph is a good thing because it help us keep record of many things. For instance, an event that we'll like to remember each and every time, such as wedding, birthday, picnic, anniversary, graduation and so on.
I know people who can't do without taking pictures in a day, it's a good thing though but it's not my thing, I only take pictures occasionally, probably when I have an event, but whenever I take it, I'll keep staring at it over and over again.
Pictures we take during these days help us to remember the event vividly and keep the event very fresh in our memory.
Few months ago, I had wedding and you know how weddings can be, what's a wedding without pictures, it's definitely not complete, we did some videos and some short video clips.
At first when I met with the guy that will help us with the photograph, he told me it will cost a hundred thousand naira. I was very surprised because I wasn't expecting that price but the situation of things in the country, how prices of things are skyrocketing is alarming.
It will include the photos, frames and photo book, it also includes the cost of pre wedding pictures. At the long run, we conclude in paying seventy thousand naira.
I mentioned earlier that photographs help us to keep record of event or moments, an example is one of my birthday celebration that happened when I was very young.
When we were still young, birthdays were not as colourful as this, even though that's what we regard as colourful, it was all fine then, but now alot has changed. What we use mostly to take pictures was biscuit, soft drinks and some even use food like rice or garri (Eba) hahaha... good old days. It was all fun then, nevertheless some also use cake.
My birthday picture above is over twenty five years now, that's me and my mom in the picture but I can't even remember when that was, I only saw the picture when I grew older but with the look of things I guess it was a good time, the picture says it all.
Another memorable picture was the one I took during my big brother's wedding, I was the best man, you need to see how I was dripping with swags hehehe, I think I was more handsome than the groom just as how my best man during my own wedding was more handsome than me, just kidding though.
We traveled all the way to Lokoja, Kogi state, Nigeria for the engagement and then back to Kwara state for the church wedding. I could remember how the journey down to Lokoja was, it was very tiring, it got to a point that our vehicle got spoilt, when we also stop over to eat, hmm everything was just like yesterday especially when I check the pictures again.
The pictures we took made the memories of all this times still fresh, we laughed and talk about the good time.
