Need help with lifetime declaration

help

I tried but can't resolve this problem:

#[derive(Serialize, Deserialize)]
pub struct PhotoData<'a> {
pub filename: String,
pub title_en: String,
pub description_en: String,
pub title_ja: String,
pub description_ja: String,
pub tags: Vec<&'a str>,
}

with compiler error:

error[E0495]: cannot infer an appropriate lifetime for lifetime parameter `'de` due to conflicting requirements
  --> src\photo_actions.rs:13:21
