preserve your family's stories and legacy with our video memoirs and portrait sessions.
Book Your Session
There are moments in life that deserve to be remembered - not just in pictures, but in your own words, with your own voice, and your own presence. Our Video Memoir & Legacy Portrait Sessions are about more than just recording memories. They’re about capturing the essence of who you are - your laughter, your wisdom, your journey - so that your story can live on for generations.
We know how deeply personal this experience is, which is why we guide you with care and compassion from start to finish. Whether you're leaving a legacy for your family or simply honoring your life’s path, we’ll help you create something lasting, heartfelt, and truly timeless. With over 15 years of storytelling through portraiture, Kara Reese Photography is honored to hold space for your voice, your memories, and your legacy.
No two stories are the same - and your session should reflect that. Whether you prefer the comfort of our professional studio or the familiarity of your own home, we’ll tailor the experience to match your vision. Want to include a spouse, sibling, or grandchild? We welcome the people who matter most to you. From setting to participants to the topics we cover, every detail is thoughtfully customized so your legacy feels authentically you.
This is your story - told your way. Whether you’re drawn to the timeless beauty of a portrait, the power of spoken memories in a video memoir, or a meaningful combination of both, we’ll build a session that aligns with your vision. Some clients prefer a quiet, reflective interview. Others want to celebrate life with elegant portraits. Many choose both. Whatever feels right to you, we’ll guide you through the process with care, making sure your session is as personal, flexible, and unique as the life it honors.
Whether you’d like a full-length, uncut interview to capture your story in its purest form, or a thoughtfully edited film with music, images, and meaningful enhancements, we’ll tailor the experience to fit what matters most to you. Pricing varies depending on the level of production and storytelling elements, but ranges from $1500 - $7500+.
From simple portrait sessions to full family experiences with kids and grandkids, we offer flexible options to suit your needs. Pricing starts at $690 if booking on one of our pre-determined mini-session days, and scales up based on session length and participants.
For the most complete legacy experience, our combined sessions include both professional portraits and a video memoir. You’ll walk away with stunning images to display and a heartfelt film that captures your voice, your story, and your presence. It’s the perfect way to preserve your legacy in both visual and spoken form - something your loved ones will treasure for generations.
