Reply to comment by adamcoe in TIL NYC Photographer Jamie Livingston shot a Polaroid photo everyday for 6,000 days between March 1979 and October 1997. The first shot was of his girlfriend at the time and his last photo was on his deathbed, dying of cancer by Ok_Copy5217

Also, polaroids were used in industries like film and fashion, where you wanted to take a reference photo of something - like, documenting what clothes actors are wearing so they wear the same at the shoot tomorrow.
