A memorial video for Kristen from her dad.
Nearly every picture I used for the making of this video are images Kristen took with her digital or iphone camera. A good majority of the people and sky photographs she took turned out exceptionally well. She seems to have had a good eye for capturing interesting subjects.In addition to acknowledging Kristen's two closest friends, Lisa and Viki, I included a couple of poems I wrote for her soon after she passed.

Especially when the Mandy Moore song starts, which, by the way, Kristen introduced me to. I would like to do a thorough video for and about Kristen and all of her cousins, whom all she loved dearly.

Thank you for the nice response, Jane! When I decided to make this video it was intended as a means for me to attempt to reconcile the loss of my daughter and express some thoughts and feelings about her while those thoughts are still fresh in my memory. While I was assembling the various parts of the video it wasn't as emotional an experience as viewing it when complete. I too cannot watch the whole thing without crying. (Continued Below)
