Story keepsakes
via sound, visuals, or both
Care-driven, story-forward, keepsakes —
Every piece begins with a conversation, is distinctly personal, and is shaped around the life it’s meant to hold. They are about helping love land—and stories last.
Gifts are created for someone, shaped to be felt and received.
Storytelling is created about someone or something, shaped to be remembered and revisited.
The medium can be sound, visuals, or a blend—whatever best fits the occasion.
“Sarah, that is goosebump- and weepy-tears-inducing. Wow.
What a gem of a gift to cherish forever.” —Kathy P.

Sound Portraits
A personal storytelling keepsake centered on one person—capturing the moments, memories, and perspectives that make their life uniquely theirs.
Through a relaxed, guided recording, reflections are gathered in a way that feels natural and comfortable. The story is then shaped through attentive, layered editing—keeping the speaker’s voice and presence at the center throughout.
Good for: parents • grandparents • mentors • elders • anyone who wants to hold onto and share their voice and stories
Starting at $500
Each project is custom created and begins with a conversation. Get in touch.
VISUAL STORIES
Slideshows and short films
Capturing connections, milestones, and the beauty of everyday life.
Projects can include new photography and film, along with family archives.
“We could not be happier with Sarah’s photography and the gift that it continues to be for us…” —Jen & Mike M.
Slideshows
Personalized slideshows set to music — warm, accessible, and shaped with feeling and flow.
Created from newly captured images, existing images, or a thoughtful blend of both, these pieces are ideal for gifts, celebrations, or honoring life’s chapters.
Each slideshow is paced with care, focusing on presence, rhythm, and emotional continuity — offering a cinematic experience without the scope or complexity of a full film. Image retouching available.
Starting at $200
Short Films
Layered, story-driven, personal films shaped around the lives and moments they hold.
Film projects can take many forms, from intimate interviews and newly captured moments to thoughtful montages made from existing photos, video clips, and audio.
Because each short film is different in scope and style, the best first step is a conversation. We’ll share ideas, explore examples, and shape an approach that fits your story.
