When I was a young man, I remembered every movie I’d ever seen. Places I’d been. Restaurants enjoyed. People met. My photos were mostly a creative exercise, like a journal full of detail and consideration rather than documents of time and place. I lived in the fantasy that my photos were incidental to the journey.

You know those tribute montage videos that someone spends hours creating in your honor? It’s a milestone birthday, or maybe retirement. Your kids pitch in on Mother’s Day. Wouldn’t it be nice to have a little tribute like that on-demand? You can.

Memories is a nifty feature of Apple Photos that does just that.

What could be better for Father's Day than a quick retrospective of all the Father's Days that have gone before? Apple Photos makes that really easy on iPhone or Mac with the Search function.
