Used to be "Take A Photo To Remember" 

In the sorrowful years following the sudden and grievous death of Rowan Hale's crowd pleasing elder brother, she turns to photography to find solace amidst her dreary life in bland Pennsylvania. But when Rowan begins finding mysterious polaroids she didn't take and enigmatic notes alluding to things Rowan had never thought to question, she is forced to go back to the day she moved to Pennsylvania and everything that happened since.

As Rowan delves deeper into the past of the ghostly starring character in her polaroids, she begins to uncover disturbing secrets, uncanny tales, and disastrous promises nestled between the extravagant palaces of Pennsylvania's richest and hidden in the smoky crevices of luxurious balls, high school parties, and fundraiser banquets sponsored by Pennsylvanian corporations. And amidst all the unraveling seams of her town, Rowan discovers that people aren't always who we think they are - alive or dead.

In a thrilling journey of discovery, mystery, and growth Rowan loses and revives old friendships, becomes immersed in the garishly disillusioned lives of the wealthy, and is granted a deeper understanding of the people she thought she knew so well. 

But if you want to capture these moments......you should take a photo to remember.
