A Compassionate Partner in Telling Their Story
Creating a memorial video is a deeply personal journey, and I am here to support you with discretion and empathy every step of the way. My role is not simply to assemble photos; it is to collaborate with you to craft a beautiful video tribute that genuinely reflects the spirit, personality, and story of your loved one. All of your original photographs and videos are handled with the utmost care and respect, right here in my Colwood studio.
My Collaborative Memorial Video Service Process
Together, we will create a moving tribute that you and your family can cherish forever. My process is designed to be simple, respectful, and collaborative, ensuring the final video is a perfect reflection of your wishes.
Step 1: Compassionate Consultation
We begin with a gentle conversation, either in person, by phone, or via video call. During this time, you can share stories and memories, and we can discuss the tone, music, and overall feeling you envision for the tribute video.
Step 2: Gathering the Memories
You can provide your memories in any format—digital photos, printed pictures, video clips, or even slides. I will carefully digitize any physical items needed to build the tribute. Because I understand how precious these items are, this is a key part of my local service. Suggested Internal Link: Learn about my meticulous approach to handling original media.
Step 3: Storytelling and Editing
This is where the story comes to life. I will thoughtfully arrange the photos and video clips, weaving them together with your chosen music and any desired text or captions. The result is a seamless and emotional narrative that honours your loved one’s journey.
Step 4: Review and Refinement
I will provide you with a private link to review the draft of the video. This is your opportunity to suggest any changes or adjustments. It is incredibly important to me that you are completely happy with the tribute, and we will work together until it feels just right.
A Note on Community Support
Navigating grief is a difficult path, and it is important to have support. If you or your family are in need of resources, local organizations like the Victoria Hospice Society offer compassionate bereavement support and counselling services. Please accept my sincerest condolences during this difficult time. Suggested Outbound Link: Find bereavement support through the Victoria Hospice Society.

What Customers Are Saying
Putting together a video for a colleague’s retirement felt like a monumental task. Dave made it simple. He guided us through collecting photos and interviews and edited it all into a story that was both funny and touching. It was the perfect way to honor a 40-year career.
Mark D.
For my parents’ 50th anniversary, I wanted to do something more than just a photo album. Dave created a video that blended their wedding photos, our old home movies, and video messages from family abroad. It was the hit of the party. My mom said it was the best gift she’d ever received.
Jennifer P.
When my father passed away, we were overwhelmed with trying to put together a photo slideshow for his memorial. Dave took our chaotic box of photos and home videos and created the most beautiful, moving tribute. He told the story of Dad’s life perfectly. There wasn’t a dry eye in the room.
