"It was so wonderful to have Krista capture my father. Her authentic presence while recording was valuable because my father could tell his stories candidly and truly capture the history that I want my family to remember. She went above and beyond to meet with us, coming to our home and working with our schedule. I am glad we have this memoir, especially now that he has passed. Now all of her descendants will have the opportunity to see their heritage and that means a lot to him. Thank you Krista!"

Testimonials
"My grandfather passed away last month at the age of 100. We are so fortunate to have been able to record him retelling stories from his life. He lived just long enough to see his great granddaughter and now she will be able to appreciate his memories as she gets older. Thank you!"
"I am so grateful that Krista filmed my mother. Since the filming, some of the memories aren't as clear as they were, and it is very special to have these records for our family. Highly recommend."
"I am so touched to have a film of my grandmother, Carmen Carney. There is nothing like having an actual video to help me remember my love for her, and I'm glad it's not just up to my memory. I am greatful that I can share with my children yet to come who my grandmother was as a person. I love seeing the family history included. Whenever I miss my grandma I pull out the video. I only wish I also had this of my grandfather. Anyone thinking about it should just go for it. The process was very fulfilling for my grandmother and our family."
