Thanks to recommendations from couples on The Knot
What started as a fun and unique way to capture weddings, bachelorettes, and honeymoons has now become a viral internet trend thanks to TikTok. If you haven’t seen the trending video—let me tell you what I do!
The idea is simple. I ship you a classic video camcorder for your event. The production kit comes with everything you need: memory card, batteries, travel case, (you can even add a selfie light or a wireless mic!). Once you have your camera kit, bring it to your event and have your friends and family take turns filming. When the event is over, simply ship the camera back to me using a prepaid return label.
Once I receive your camera, I log your footage and ask you some questions about what you have in mind for an edit. You get to tell me how long of a video you want since I charge by the minute. Each minute of video is $75, so if you want a 10 minute video it would be $750. You could also request a 1 minute video or anything in-between.
From there, I will edit your footage to the desired length. You get to review the home movie before purchasing so we can make sure everything is just right. My clients are always thrilled to see what comes back from these cameras. Think of it as the classic disposable-camera-on-the-table trend, except with a video camera!
I take footage that authentically captures your event and I turn it into a treasured family artifact. If this sounds like something you would like to include in your next event, either reach out to me or book directly through myfamilyartifacts.com.

Family Artifacts started in 2022 as a home movie editing service. I saw potential in creating home movies of weddings, but knew the service would only work if my clients could manage to film their own events and send me the footage. So I created a production package that had everything they would need to film, all they had to do was send it back! This unique approach to documenting events was a huge success. I began promoting this idea on TikTok in 2023 and it went viral overnight. Since then, I have created videos for countless weddings, bachelorettes, and honeymoons.

We absolutely loved this service! We enjoyed taking our own videos and received such a beautiful edit of the wedding day! It was an easy process and great route if you don't want to go the full blown video production route.

This was such a fun experience, and the end result was so good!! A traditional wedding videographer was not the vibe for my sister's wedding, so I did this as a wedding gift to her and the whole process has been so fun and seamless!
Freeman is so great to work with and despite not being there or knowing anyone at the wedding, she perfectly put together an amazing video that our whole family will cherish!
I do have a background in video so I think that made my experience with the audio and using the mics super simple but Freeman includes great instructions and everything you need to have successful footage! We passed the camera around throughout the night to get all sorts of vantage points and it turned out so great!
10/10 recommend!!

I can't say enough great things about Family Artifacts. My husband and I used it to document our honeymoon and we got the most amazing video out of it. She chose the best clips that fully encompassed the energy of our trip. Its truly an artifact we will always cherish.

I rented a camera for my bachelorette trip and it was so awesome that I rented it for my wedding a month later. Having the camera there was so much fun during the getting reading process and the reception! Can’t wait to look back on my videos for years to come!

We used Freeman to capture our first international family vacation with our toddler. She is tremendous to work with and was kind, patient and answered my problems so quickly. We will forever cherish that video of us in Amsterdam and can’t want to show our kiddo when he is old enough to appreciate 15/10 recommend.

This was the BEST way to capture our amazing European honeymoon! The booking was seamless, communication was prompt and timely, and overall we love our video. We show it off all the time, and cannot wait to show our kids one day. Thank you Family Artifacts for giving us the best keepsake. We cannot recommend this enough, no matter the occasion.
