What may seem like ordinary daily scenes can become special through your perspective. Only you know "the sky of that day" or "the wind of that day." Keeping a photo diary transforms familiar scenes into lasting memories.

Looking further afield might bring unexpected thoughts, worries, or exciting prospects. Express your genuine feelings.

Assigning Meaning to Everyday Life

Taking photos gives meaning to everyday life. By assigning meaning, you cherish each moment. Small beauties you once overlooked appear before you in the form of photos.

Every time you look back at these photos, the feelings and atmosphere of that day revive in your heart.

Let's Start a Photo Diary Now

The first step to starting a photo diary is very simple.

Pick up your smartphone or camera and photograph what's in front of you. Food, pets, the view outside the window, the blue sky—anything is fine. What matters is capturing the moments with your unique sensibility.
