Mama Pics [better] <480p · 8K>

Motherhood can feel invisible. You do the laundry, pack the lunches, and wipe the noses, often without a thank you. Being in photos is a reminder to yourself: I am here. I am part of this story.

Imagine looking at a photo album of your own childhood. Do you only want to see photos of yourself? No, you want to see your mother. You want to see her younger face, her style, the way she looked at you with love. You are a central character in your child’s life story. If you erase yourself from the visual history, the narrative is incomplete. Years from now, your children will want to look back and see you—not just the lunch you packed or the crafts you set up, but you .

This approach examines the sociological impact of mothers sharing photos of their children and their daily lives on social media.
