105 - Beyond the Screen: The Significance of Printing Photos in the Digital Age

Our lives today are dominated by digital screens and devices. Printing photos has taken a backseat to 'sharing' online. We are capturing more photos than ever before, however we are printing less and less. Yet, there's a timeless magic in holding a tangible photograph – a sentiment that transcends the pixels on our screens. While so many memories are often lost in the digital abyss, the importance of printing photos becomes a testament to preserving the essence of our lives. In this episode, I talk with Andrew Funderburg, founder of Fundy Design, about saving your photos from a life lived on a lonely hard drive or in the cloud and making them real and tangible. So get ready to ditch the ones and zeros for albums and prints!
