Memorial & Tribute Films in Pittsburgh
Everlight makes celebration-of-life films, memorial slideshows, and legacy recordings for Pittsburgh families — gently, on time, and true to the person you love.
A Life, Well Told
A tribute film is not a slideshow with sad music. It's the story of a whole person — the laugh everyone imitates, the recipe nobody can replicate, the way they answered the phone. We gather photos, footage, and voices from the people who knew them best, and give the service a film that sounds like them.
- ✓Built from your photos, footage, and stories
- ✓Their music, their humor, their faith — honored
- ✓Ready before the service, always
- ✓Yours to keep and reshare, forever
For the Service, and for After
Whatever you need in the days you're in — and the ones that come later.
Four Gentle Steps
Talk to Us
A short, unhurried call — who they were, when the service is, and what would feel right.
Share What You Have
Photos, phone videos, old tapes — sent digitally or handed to us for careful scanning.
We Make the Film
Edited with care, reviewed by your family, and revised until it sounds like them.
The Service, and After
Played at the service, streamed for the family far away, and kept by everyone forever.
Ready for the Service, However You Gather
Chapel, funeral home, graveside, or a backyard that was always theirs — we handle the screens, the sound, and the stream so the film simply plays when it should. Family joining from far away sees and hears everything, gently and without a single technical worry landing on you.
- ✓Playback handled with the venue directly
- ✓Quiet, reliable livestreams for distant family
- ✓Recorded services kept for those who couldn't come
- ✓A tech check before, so the day just flows
The Legacy Recording
The most treasured film we make is the one recorded early — a parent or grandparent telling their own story, in their own kitchen, in their own words. Families call it the best afternoon they ever scheduled. If someone you love has stories, this is your sign.
- ✓An unhurried afternoon of stories, at home
- ✓Guided gently — never scripted
- ✓Old photos woven through the telling
- ✓The full conversation archived for the family
What Matters Most, After
It Sounded Like Them
Not a generic tribute — their humor, their music, their exact way of being. That's the whole craft.
It Was Ready
In a week with a hundred moving pieces, the film was simply done, early, without a single reminder.
It Keeps Helping
Families rewatch on birthdays and anniversaries. The film works long after the service ends.
Every Film Comes With
Careful Photo Scanning
Prints, albums, and slides handled like heirlooms and returned exactly as they came.
Their Music, Cleared
The songs that mattered, licensed properly so the film can be shared without worry.
Copies for Everyone
Every branch of the family gets the film — no one has to ask, no one is left waiting.
A Private Remembrance Page
A quiet online page where family anywhere can watch, rewatch, and leave a memory.
Gently Said, Gratefully Received
The film played before the service and gave everyone permission to laugh and cry in the same ten minutes. It was Dad — completely, exactly him. Our family watches it every year on his birthday now.
We had three days and a shoebox of photos. They treated every picture like it mattered — because to us, each one did. The slideshow was ready the night before, and it was perfect.
Mom recorded her legacy interview two springs before she passed. Hearing her tell her own story, in her own kitchen, in her own words — there is nothing else like it. Do not wait to do this.
Asked Softly, Answered Honestly
The service is in three days. Is that enough time?
Yes. Memorial slideshows turn around in 48 hours, and we've made full tribute films inside four days. Call first — we'll tell you honestly what's possible in the time you have, then make it.
What do you need from us?
Photos and any videos you have, in whatever state they're in — a shoebox is fine. We scan, sort, and return everything. One family member as our contact keeps it easy on everyone else.
What does a tribute film cost?
Slideshows begin in the low hundreds; full celebration-of-life films are quoted after we talk. We'll always tell you what's meaningful at your budget — this work should never add a financial weight to a hard week.
Can you include our faith's traditions?
Yes — nine years in Pittsburgh has taught us the customs of many traditions, and we follow your family's lead on scripture, music, and tone in every film.
Who sees the film afterward?
Only who you choose. Films are delivered privately to your family, with a private remembrance page for relatives far away. We never share a family's film.
Can we add to the film later?
Always. Families often add the service itself, or new memories for an anniversary edition. Everything we make for you is archived, so the film can grow when you're ready.
We're Here, and We'll Take It From Here.
One gentle call is all it takes to start — we answer every day until 8 PM, and we reply to messages within hours.
Tell Us About Your Person
As much or as little as feels right. We'll reply gently, quickly, and with a clear plan for the days ahead.
