HVS’s Top Five Movies Where Nature is the Star – or At Least the Co-Star


Some movies are all about the acting, some are all about the story. And some combine them with beautiful on-location scenery. In honor of spring we visit HVS’s Top Five Movies Where Nature is the Star – or At Least the Co-Star.

The Sound of Music – Who can forget Maria dancing in a green meadow surrounded by the Bavarian Alps? Stunning.


Lord of the Rings – – Filmed in the natural beauty of New Zealand, many of the scenes did not use any digital enhancements and are as beautiful in person as they are in the movie.


Braveheart – This movie wouldn’t have been the same without the freedom inspiring sweeping, mountainous landscapes of the Scottish Highlands.


Life of Pi – Nature in all her glory (and fury) from the weather, to the ocean, to the pets.


Blue Lagoon – OK, the acting wasn’t that great, but the tropical paradise makes us all wonder what it would be like to start a new civilization there.



Photo Video Keepsakes for the Red-Letter Days Ahead

Don’t you love this time of year? Mother Nature is motivated. Bees are busy. Creation is creative. It’s time for you to get motivated, creative and busy too! There are plenty of red-letter days around the corner where your loved ones will be celebrated, and the perfect centerpiece to these events is a Photo Video Keepsake:


  • Mother's day – Nothing will move Mom and everyone who loves her like a powerful celebration of her life in photos and music. Is this the year to honor her with a gift that will last for generations?
  • Graduation – A lot has happened between your child’s day of arrival and day of commencement, and there’s no better way to say “I’m proud of you!” Photos, videos, certificates, first grade, first communion, first date....all in a unique and creative presentation.
  • Anniversaries – Been married one year or sixty? How moving would a tribute to your beloved be as your time together is captured through images, video and music?

How does a Photo Video Keepsake work?

We use your photos, videos, and/or slides of the honoree along with your choice of appropriate music. Keepsakes can run from fifty photos or even fewer to as many as three hundred or more. We usually add beginning and ending titles to the production, as well as some simple transitions between the photos. Then we put it all on a DVD or a video file for easy viewing.

Will they like it?

Only if they enjoy being honored in the most heartfelt way imaginable. Photo Video Keepsakes are:


  • Personal - Keepsakes are the perfect way to put anyone in the spotlight. What is more personal than great, meaningful photos complemented by inspiring music? Each Keepsake is a unique story - a custom testimony to your loved one.
  • Powerful - What better way to portray a message of "I love you" or "I'm proud of you" or "I'd do it all over again" or "I'm glad you exist in the world" than with the power of image and sound?
  • Portable - PhotoVideo Keepsakes are viewable anywhere you can watch a DVD or video. Homes, offices, auditoriums, fellowship halls. Another reason why they are the perfect way to honor anyone, anytime and anywhere.
  • Practical - Keepsakes make great gifts, not just for the subject, but for all your loved ones. Easily duplicated. Easily labeled.

"This sounds great! What do I do next?"


  1. Call us and let's make an appointment - Why not today?
  2. Start selecting your photos - We always say this step is way too much fun, so don't spend too much time on each photo. Zero in on the photos that tell your story.
  3. Sort your photos - you may want to present them chronologically, by subject...you decide.
  4. Number your photos - Don't use a pen! Post-it's work well.
  5. Come by and let's get started!

And don’t forget all our other services that may come in handy this time of year as well, including tape transfers, home movie transfers, slide transfer, and editing. Attractive Gift Certificates are available as well!
