family videos
Domestic footage archives
Family videos are informal recordings of domestic life—birthdays, holidays, vacations, children's milestones.
The term evokes a particular era of handheld camcorders and VHS tapes, though it now includes smartphone footage.
Family videos carry nostalgic weight as documentation of ordinary moments: We spent the afternoon digitizing old family videos.
The phrase sometimes appears euphemistically for amateur pornography featuring couples.
