People Are Using a TikTok Filter to Take Touching "Photos" With Their Late Loved Ones

Using her late father's photo as a backdrop was a deeply moving experience for 21-year-old Adrianne Taylor, who is seen crying throughout the clip. "When making the TikTok I became overwhelmed with emotions, and it was nice to see a photo of us, with me grown-up rather than a being little girl," she told POPSUGAR. "I've watched the video myself at least 200 times."

She continued: "When seeing my video the first time people might assume that he had passed recently because I show such raw sadness. In reality, sometimes it feels like 8 years and sometimes it feels like it was just yesterday. When losing a loved one, there's no time limit on your grief, you just learn to live with it."

Charlotte Sanford, whose father died in a car crash, felt compelled to share her own rendition now that she's expecting a child. "He passed away in a car accident when I was 10," she told POPSUGAR. "My twin sister and I were on our way to visit him on spring break. He passed away the night before we made it to Vancouver Island."

Nineteen-year-old Sara Rogers created an ode to her mom, who tragically passed away in a car accident last year after being in a coma for 11 days. "I made another [video] before I made [this one] and immediately bawled my eyes out, as you can probably tell by my red face. It looked way too realistic and was very sentimental to me," she told us. "I've had a ton of people reach out to me about their parents passing and it was extremely comforting knowing other people have gone through the same trauma and have gotten through it."
