Today we’re zooming in on the international day of photography. Nowadays we can barely imagine what it would be like to be alive without capturing almost every moment. But on the 19th of August 1839, Louis Daguerre sold his patent on the first method of photography to the French government. Luckily for all of us, the government was kind enough to make this method public. After a lot of developments, Kodak was born in 1888: the first camera with a film roll. Which moments have you captured in your life?
