Majestic moments aren’t exclusive to natural phenomenon. Sometimes they’re captured in a simple click of a shutter and given heightened importance to your life once you use the images as a mirror.

In an age of disposable moments, we’re searching for something deeper – a deeper understanding of the world around us and of ourselves. The photos you see in ShotStories are ones that have touched us in a way that makes them more than mere wallpaper for our Macs. They represent experiences - however slight, however overwhelming – that help us put perspective on this world.

As fleeting as memories are, we’re glad to have our pictures – a way to savor those moments where something moved us to the point of wanting to capture that moment forever. One second can make a difference in your life. One second can make a difference.
