Madeline Ell
Memory Chef
I come from a big family, who like to eat. A lot! After more than a decade in professional video production, I turned the camera around on my family, and it changed my life forever. I want you all to feel what it's like to give this gift to your family. I'm here to help you pause time, to help you let go of your fear of not remembering. I'm here to teach you how to pass down your family stories to future generations with emotional, and meaningful films that you'll cherish forever.
