This paper is about the multiple relations between the photographic act and memory, in the digital age. Starting from a paper about the impact that photography has on the memory, by Linda Henkel, we raise certain questions about the relation between photographs and our remembering process. Is there anything in the photographic act that damages the construction of memories? Do we photograph to remember? What we choose to photograph matters? Does the accumulation of photographs helps or disturbs the construction of memory?
