Back in the days, we would get all dressed up to go to the studio to take family photos with our family and loved ones. while patiently waiting for the photos to be developed. Once received we carefully place them into a photo album or frame them with exquisite photo frames to put at home. This familiar scene is considered as a beautiful memory by many people that were born in the 60s, 70s and even 80s.

Do you remember when was the last time you went to develop a photo? Do you still remember that leather-bound album full of family photos? If you are under the age of 30, chances are you have never experienced these type of things.

During this time, we will find that using the newest technology for photography is slowly weakening our memory of the old ways, to realised that paper photos are still the best way to retain our memory. With just a “click”, a photo captured a beautiful moment.

Because there is a touching story behind every photo, as the saying goes, the past can only be recalled, a series of unforgettable childhood photos are dedicated to our long lost childhood.

曾经，和家人穿戴整齐去照相馆拍照，等着照片冲洗出来，回家后小心翼翼地装进相册或者用精美的相框装裱起来，在随后的日子里时不时把照片拿出来翻看，回想一下当时的情景，是很多60后、70后甚至80后人们对过往生活的幸福记忆。

你是否还记得最后一次去洗照片？你又是否还记得那本收藏家庭照片的皮封套相册？假如你今年不到30岁，那么你可能从来没有做过这些事。

此时，我们会发现电子摄影技术正在慢慢削弱我们的记忆，而纸质照片依然是为我们留住记忆的最好方法。“咔嚓”一声，一张照片，定格一个美好瞬间。

因为每一张照片背后都会有动人的故事，正所谓往事只能回味，一系列难忘的童年照片，献给我们逝去的童年时光.
