Memory lives
in layers

Spirit & Frame is a digital memory studio devoted to preserving everyday life with intention. It is the culmination of a lifelong impulse to gather moments, honor them, and provide a sacred place for them to live.

The Curation

When I was a child, my favorite thing to do was sit with photo albums — slowly turning pages, studying faces, and tracing moments that existed before I could name them. As a teenager, that instinct turned into practice: curating albums for myself, my friends, and my family. That reverence never left.

Today, I choose to work with the photographs you already have, transforming them into curated keepsakes that feel warm, lived-in, and worthy of being passed down. This work is rooted in community, family, and legacy.

It specifically honors the way memory lives in indigenous and native households and cultures: layered, joyful, imperfect, sacred.

The Visage

Our studio remains faceless by design. The focus of this work must be entirely on the families, stories, and histories we are entrusted to preserve. By removing a specific face from the studio’s brand, we ensure that it is the “Spirit” of your curated legacy that always takes center stage. My role is to provide the “Frame” for your history to safely exist.

The Capsules

We guide you to anchor these stories through five distinct, intentional tiers of preservation:

The Process

Three steps to your capsule

01

Submit Your Intake

Complete our detailed intake form. Share your story, your memories, your vision. We begin every capsule by listening.

02

Share Your Materials

Send us your digital files or physical prints. We handle everything with archival care from the moment we receive them.

03

Receive Your Archive

Your finished capsule arrives — physical and digital. A keepsake built to outlast the moment, packaged with the same intention as the work inside.

Families who trusted us
with their story

Each capsule begins with a family and ends with something that outlasts a lifetime. These are some of theirs.

The first capsules are being delivered.
This space is for them.

Before You Begin

A few things to know

Do I need professional photos?

Not at all. We work with what you have — camera roll photos, old prints, scanned negatives. The imperfect ones are often the most sacred.

How long does a capsule take?

Most capsules are completed within 2–4 weeks of receiving your materials. Rush turnaround is available as an add-on.

What if I have thousands of photos?

That is exactly what we are here for. Curation is at the heart of every capsule — we find the Spirit within the volume.

Is a deposit required?

Yes. A 25% deposit reserves your place in the queue. The remaining balance is due before delivery. Submitting an inquiry does not automatically secure a spot.
