Hi, I'm Kara

And yes, I cut my own bangs.
(Don't tell my hair-stylist)

I was sitting in a memorial service for my best friend's Grandfather.

 

My BFF & I have a fun story: we met in high school & went on to marry brothers - so we're not just BFF's, but sister-in-laws.

 

I'll never forget the moment when she turned around to look at me, with tears in her eyes, and said: "Please go home and take videos of your life. Record your kids playing with their great-grandparents & grandparents. Record their voices because before you know it, that's all you'll have left."

 

That moment in time changed my life and is the seed that grew into this business idea.

Since that moment, I've been more conscientious of taking videos - recordings of of us doing daily life and having fun together.

But I realized that taking a bunch of videos wasn't quite enough.

 

What was I going to DO with the videos once I took them?

 

So, I began curating my videos - centering them around a specific time-period or an event - and editing them into finished films.

 

And suddenly, I found myself with this rich, plethora of family history, that I realized I treasured more than gold.

And I want to do that for you.

This is my sweet family.

 

They are the whole reason I KNOW without a shadow of a doubt that videos are priceless.

My sweet babies are growing faster than I can keep up with. I blink and they've outgrown their shoes and need haircuts again. (Don't worry, I don't cut their hair - I leave that to the professionals.)

They keep my days lively. And full. And magical.

I've been a wedding photographer for the last 13 years, so I guess you could say I know a little something about preserving legacy memories for generations to come.

 

I'm also a roller coaster photographer and love to photograph the amusement parks we travel to in my husband's adventures as a roller coaster YouTuber!

 

In other words: I'm most comfortable with a camera in my hands. And I'm totally fine with that.

But wow is that enough about me -
let's move on!
