Here are a few reasons that I came up with:

  1. To capture special moments, like your child’s first steps or your grandfather blowing out the candles on his birthday cake.
  2. You witness something amazing, like a tornado!
  3. You meet someone famous!
  4. While on a road trip, you see a funny sign.
  5. To document something, like the damage from a car accident.
  6. To journal your life’s moments, taking photos of things that make you happy or things you wish to remember.  You can collect these to tell a story to pass down to your children or grandchildren.

What other reasons do you know of to carry a camera every day?

Have you missed a photo moment because you didn’t have a camera with you?
