A spring photo bucket list
Oh my gosh the sun is shining and it’s beautiful! Spring is here. You’re noticing the flowers, the warmth, the people going out and getting fresh air. It’s actually one of our favorite times of the year. If you’re looking for some spring inspiration, something fun to do together as a family, a way to document this current moment, then we’ve got you covered.
12 things video can capture but photos cannot (on your wedding day)
While I know that wedding photos are a must, there are certain things that photos just can’t capture the same way that videos can. The posed shots, beautiful still moments, and glimpses of emotion are perfectly captured by a good photographer. But your vows, the first dance, laughter and crying, the speeches given by the most important people to you; all of these things (and so much more) can’t be captured with photos.
My 2019 rewind -- a look into my camera roll
This is my 2019 recap through my camera roll. I was trying to do this on a monthly basis for awhile, so I’m really excited to see everything from 2019 in one glance. I take TONS of pictures, and this should be fun. Can you guess home many pictures I took in 2019?? My iPhone camera roll is telling me 4,180… but I know it’s more than that if you count all of the weddings, family session, and business type work I did. Whew, it’s been a year!
Documenting during the holidays
Any fellow memory keeping addicts out there know that the holidays are an excellent time to be scrapbooking, journaling, and taking tons of pictures and video! I find that documenting the holidays can be one of the easiest times, and often times it’s very expected. If you’re new to the memory keeping world, now is a great time to start because for some strange reason people are more okay with you take 100000s of pictures during the holidays than they are any other time.
How can Memory Keeping become a business?
Did you see that post title? I bet you're super curious about how you can turn your passion for capturing memories into a business. How can memory keeping become a business? There are multiple ways: you can start an online store, share your endeavors on YouTube, or even start a business that helps others memory keep too (and so much more). But that's where my focus is--helping others memory keep. I love helping others achieve their memory keeping goals, understand that this doesn't have to be something hard, and that their stories are meant to be captured, documented, and saved.
How to vlog when you have nothing to vlog
I’ve asked a few times on my Instagram if anyone was interested in starting vlogging. And a lot of times I have people reach out who are interested, but almost always they say that they don’t know what to vlog. I think that this can be one of the most daunting things to think about when starting a vlog or YouTube channel. In today’s post I want to talk a bit about how you can use video to create a story, document your every day, and ultimately store these memories for you to relive and rewatch in the future.
becoming the family historian
For me, what first started as a passion project and a hobby has over time become a proud privilege and honor. I am the keeper of the memories, the storyteller of my family’s history, and yes, I am responsible for its passing on to others. I capture the stories of my family members, the experiences that we have together, our thoughts during each mundane day, and I pride myself in this job of keeping my family’s memories alive.
July Recap
Why do I feel like every time I get on here to review one of my months I always feel so overwhelmed about how the month went. The last recap I did I felt so busy, so full of different events and activities, and mostly I just felt like I had so much change going on in my life. But then this past month happens, and I feel like everything is just 10x more overwhelming and busy and full of change. Is this just adult life now?
The best vlog camera for beginners
I just want to preface this post by saying I am by no means a camera expert. However, I have been vlogging for many years now, and I know what works best for beginners! Vlogging is about capturing your every day life, documenting your memories, and telling your story. You shouldn’t be stressing about what camera to get, but if you’re looking for some experienced advice then I’ve got you!!
