Lawayne Dacosta reflects on her experience of searching for baby photos of her daughter, Londyn, for a school project. As they scrolled through the images, they noticed that most of them were taken with humorous filters from apps like Snapchat. Londyn enjoyed seeing her filtered baby pictures, remarking on their silliness, while Lawayne felt a sense of loss for not having more unfiltered images. This experience highlighted the pervasive nature of digital filters in their lives and the contrast between filtered fun and genuine memories.
I never realized how many filtered photos we had until we went looking for unfiltered ones. It made me wish I had captured more authentic moments.
Londyn found the filtered images hilarious and that reflects the culture she’s grown up in – one full of funny, cutesy and colorful filters.
