Grief Packages
Grief is all the love you want to give but cannot give - it is love with no place to go.
During the initial impact, arranging anything is unfathomable. Here’s an outline of what unique packages I provide that might help you feel more connected during this tough time.
Struggling to have the strength to talk at the funeral? I can, against a strict timeframe, provide a timelapsed portrait drawing with your chosen words pre-recorded and edited on top. This relieves you of the pressure of publicly talking when you don’t feel you have it in you whilst not missing the opportunity to say what you want to say.
Wanting their memory shared between friends and family, whether it be at the wake or online? I can create a time-lapse video with highlight clips of them embedded accompanied by a thoughtful song remembering the passed one. This provides a space for people to connect sharing fond memories and keeping the passed ones spirits alive through visuals and communication.
“We played the video at my brothers memorial - people were blown away with the quality and attention to detail.
The drawing now has pride of place in our home. I was saying to my partner Samantha the other day, every time I look at the portrait I smile, this is genuine! It’s one of the best photos of my brother and it seems to capture all of his emotions. I don’t know how to explain it but the drawing seems to bring him alive, I feel like he is looking over us in an odd way! Thank you.”

Wanting their presence felt at home?
I am able to draw a life size face of them at their most expressive, where you feel their infectious laugh, warm smile or memorable pose.
“I hold my pain in and try and be strong all the time, this video has helped me shift tears through and that’s something so special. I honestly cannot thank you enough I feel like I build a wall around my heart constantly to protect myself and this has helped me feel into my heart which I need to.”

Whoever they were to you, and whatever energy they brought, I am able to channel through film and art uniquely created for you and catered to your situation that you can keep forever.
When you experience grief it’s hard to know how to navigate our feelings in the midst of such immense change, and it often can feel like you’re the only person experiencing what you're feeling.
I can help create a new channel connecting you to that loved one and providing you a space to simply feel.
