What Our Customers Say: Cathie and Juli Dodd from Tears of Joy Video, have created many family histories for our families, whether it was recreating our annual family reunions in video albums or marching through time in honor of our anniversaries or memorials to our loved ones that are sleeping in death. They have created beautiful memory montages for us, tastefully done, enhanced with appropriate music and verbage. We laugh, we cry, we remember. Juli and Cathie's mother, Jeannine, was our family's historian. She kept all the cute things our children and family members said and did safely in her memory and shared them often with us as an accomplished story teller. Sadly, many of those stories have been lost with her death. But the girls have followed admirably in her steps helping us to document in film and video the continuing family history. With their help the memories live on! We very much appreciate the skill, creativity, tenderness and love with which they care for our cherished family memories, both past and present.

What our customers say: I moved away from Southern California after twenty years and my friends threw a going away bash for me. Tears of Joy Video was right there and artfully captured some of my favorite pictures and expressions of people who mean so much to me. I love watching the montage, it is a real heart message! Thanks Tears of Joy for keeping my California family as close as a DVD in my living room despite 2300 miles between us!
Nikki, Ohio. Just want to let you know how thrilled my mom-in -law is with the DVD...as well as everyone in the family and all the guests at the party. I've seen it about 10 times!
Trish, Del Mar, CA
There was hardly a dry eye in the house. Everyone loved it. My dad was so happy!! He kept saying, “Wonderful! Wonderful!” It left him pretty speechless. He had never even seen some of the photos. THANK YOU SO MUCH for this “wonderful” gift!! I am so happy I got to see him enjoy it. (Catherine)
The party was great. I showed the video to Ed, and all of our kids and Ryan's 3 college friends Friday night. Ed was amazed. The kids loved seeing themselves and us when we were younger. His reaction was mouth dropped open , I can't believe this. He loves the video. The audience was in awe too. Then we showed it at the party last night. The friends and neighbors just loved it, we were all laughing and enjoying the songs and memories that it evolked. I got alot of positive feedback and they just loved seeing the early years of Ed and our family. Ed is very pleased, He will probably call and thank you himself. (Debi)

What Our Customers Say Tears of Joy created a video montage for my son's wedding rehearsal that helped set the mood for the celebration to follow. Using photos of my son and his fiancée from birth up to their engagement, they used unique transitions to create the wonderful story of two people meant to be soul mates. Family and friends were included in the pictures and enjoyed the montage as much as the parents did. It was the perfect mood setting for the wedding the next day. Tears of Joy added to one of the most special moments in our lives.
Sylvia-Encinitas, CA
The montage was such a hit. Not only were my sister and her husband blown away, but also all the guests at the dinner loved it!! The evening was so special but the montage was definitely the cherry on top. Cathie at Tears of Joy video was a pleasure to work with and fulfilled all of our requests with ease. The montage was done with such class and creativity. Thank you again.
Talya-Del Mar, CA
“I decided to show the slide show immediately after the rehearsal to the close friends and family and because we had very limited time at the reception. Jason definitely had tears in his eyes and quivering lips when he saw it. I have never once seen him cry, but this was the closest I've seen! He was very emotional when watching it. When I told him what the name of your company is he said "well...they definitely stay true to their name!"”
Yasmeen and Jason,Orange County, CA
The wedding was amazing! Thank you again for your wonderful work. One of the guests at the rehearsal dinner is an amateur videographer and wanted to know all about you. Angela is tough to read ( she doesn't show a lot of emotion), but I think (and she said) that she really liked the DVD. We showed it on an old fashioned movie screen and the projector could have been better, but everyone was able to see it and there were plenty of oo's and ah's.

PS: Justin loved it!

What Our Customers say: I loved working with Tears of Joy Video! I have such a beautiful video of my son’s “edited” birth and our first favorite pictures of him! I have watched it over and over and I still get TEARS every time I see it! I treasure it so much. I am able to share it with my friends and family who were not able to be present during that time, and that means so much to them. They all say they wished they had their special events in a video montage like mine. And I tell them that it was so easy…I have this special work of art all just by sending a CD of my favorite pictures and some recordings on a disc and Tears of Joy did the rest! Though I live a distance away - it was no problem for them to work with me. Their expertise and professionalism clearly show. I would recommend them to all who want their memories treasured for a lifetime.

See what our customers say I had a video done for my in-laws 50th Wedding anniversary. My mother in-law was nervous about having a video because the family isn't perfect. But who's is? There are divorces and other things that could make people sad or uncomfortable. But the way it was done kept it sweet and upbeat. Everyone at the party thought it was beautiful. It brought tears of joy to all of us. Video montages make a special event even more memorable. And everyone can have a copy to take home with them to cherish forever. It's a must for any big event like that. Thank you Juli and Cathie for putting your heart into everything you do.

What our customers say
“We loved our video. We watched it on Christmas Morning as a family. There were definitely Tears of Joy.”
Dan & Nicole, Imperial Beach
One of the best decisions I ever made was to hire Tears of Joy Video to create our 'family videos'. Not only did they do a great job, but working with them was incredibly easy! No kidding here... I simply mailed all my videos and pictures and they worked their magic. They did such a great job that I hired them again a year or so later... and I'm basically planning on having them create a new video for us every year or so. Everyone loves the videos, especially our children and it's one of the best investments I've ever made.
Jesse, Springfield, MD
– Yes, your pet is a big part of the family,
too! They make us laugh, make our houses feel like homes,
and most of all, they love us like we are the only people
in the world. Do you run for the camera every time your pet
does something adorable? Then let us put those photos into
a video for you to enjoy and share with family and friends. Recommended pricing packages for this video are "Movie Reel Package"-Click to Get Quote. See Sample Below.
What our customers say: Whether you are the proud owner of a cat or a dog, one
of the most rewarding parts of the journey is watching
their antics. However, no matter how hard you try,
you never seem to be able to catch those moments just
right, therein comes the beauty of the wonderful video
that Tears of Joy Video did for me with my two cats. I now have,
forever, a video of them at play, at rest or just
hanging out, not just pictures but real action. Doing
this is an investment you will never regret. Julie

What our customers say: The culmination of a multi-year project, the construction of a beautiful new community to care for those with Alzheimer's or dementia, was the video produced by Tears of Joy Video! Capturing the year-long construction phase, from clearing the land to opening the doors, Tears of Joy Video brought the experience to life for those who weren't able to be there day by day. And for those of us who were involved day-to-day, it brought back memories of all the work that went into the project. It is so fun to re-live it. At our Grand Opening, we showed the video on a 50" plasma TV for all our guests, and they could not stop raving about it...everyone LOVED it! We still play it in our Marketing Suite for all to see. And copies were made for those closely associated with the project, much to their delight. It's truely a great way to show your appreciation. Carolyn B., Encinitas, CA

This is a great gift for a young child who is either learning to read or likes to be read to. The first book allows your child to be put into the book with their favorite cartoon characters. The children are eager to learn to read the words on the screen because the story is about them. For children or grandchildren who are not living at home with you the other type of personalized book allows you to take your child's favorite book and read it to the child with the pictures. This way you can read to those children or grandchildren every night before bed, even if they live far away.Recommended pricing packages for this video are "Movie Reel Package"-Click to Get Quote.See Samples Below.
