I had the honor of interviewing and filming Loren ‘Stein’ to create a documentary about his life stories + experiences.

Last night I attended his visitation 😔.

He was a very intelligent, inspirational man who married the love of his life and raised two beautiful daughters. He was a large part of his small community of Pella, Iowa. Today he leaves behind numerous grandchildren and one great-grandson (who is named after him 🥹).

During his visitation the family had clips of his documentary film playing while guests waited to give condolences to the family. I heard from so many people how ‘great it was to still hear his voice and watch him tell his stories’ ❤️

That’s what these documentary films are all about. Celebrating your loved ones while you get the chance to, but also knowing you’ll have a keepsake to watch and share for generations to come.

I am so thankful to have had the opportunity to spend time with Stein and to hear about his amazing life journey 🎥❤️

Hi, I’m Brittany, the face behind Positive Emissions (well, this is from a few years back 😉)

I was born in Odgen, Utah and moved to the San Diego Suburbs when I was 3. When I was almost finished with 6th grade, my family decided to move to Iowa in the MIDDLE OF WINTER 😳 (I think I owned only 2 sweatshirts and one pair of jeans at the time).

Iowa has been my home ever since! I’m now married with three kiddos and two dogs and have a passion for capturing people’s life stories and adventures. I looooove listening to people talk about their past memories ❤️

My favorite part about filming life documentaries is hearing how much families LEARN about their loved ones, and how they bring families closer together. 🥹

I’ve learned how life can change so quickly and why it’s important to capture our loved one’s stories while we get the chance to. ❤️🎥

During a documentary interview, the most beautiful stories come out when I ask about the lessons they’ve learned from their parents 🥹

It’s incredible how these memories shape us and stay with us throughout our whole lives.

“When I felt the clouds on my cheek it felt like the angels’ fingers in my cheek. I would have liked to have stayed up there longer, but that’s not the way it was. I came down, landed on my feet and ran so I didn’t get tangled up in the cord, so it was good. It was good.”

-memories from a spur of the moment skydive in the late 1980s 🪂

Want to learn about a brave or unexpected moment in your grandparent’s life? It all comes out in a documentary interview 🙌🏼🎥

One of the topics I ask during a life documentary interview is about childhood pets. I love hearing the stories behind the family pets - AND what their names were :)

Tomorrow I'm so excited to share a documentary film trailer about Ann. She is one of the BIGGEST animal lovers I've ever met 🥹 🐾 She has memories of each and every one of her cats, dogs, and horses she has had.

She often brought home stray animals and would tell her parents the animals 'just followed' her home ;)

Get ready for some heartwarming stories 🤍

"The horse didn't really care much for a rider. There was a gateway that we'd leave open when we would go get the cows and if you were riding the horse, she knew exactly where the gateway was and she'd try to brush the rider off on the post to the gateway."

-Jim, Iowa (Circa 1962)

In 1950 Lois and Reuben were dating before he was drafted to the Korean war. During his time overseas they would exchange love letters with each other. 🥹🪖

Over 70 YEARS have passed since these letters were written, but thankfully Lois (and her daughter) has made sure to keep them in a safe place after all this time.

When I went in to capture Lois' life stories I was blessed with witnessing Lois re-read her letters after all these years (she hadn't read them since she was a young woman!). This was such a beautiful moment - one I will always remember. 🤍

Watching someone re-live their memories from the past and listening to their stories is such an incredible experience.

This Memorial Day I can't help but think about all the love letters that have been sent between soldiers and their loved ones. 💌🤍
