[Placeholder — add your specific city/region here before publishing.] Heirloom Kitchen Films currently serves the local/regional area and travels for productions further out. Reach out with your location during the free planning call and we'll confirm availability and any travel considerations.
As soon as you know the date you're aiming for — a birthday, a holiday, or just a weekend that works. Production days are limited to keep each shoot unhurried, so popular dates (holidays especially) fill up first.
Not at all — this isn't a performance. The whole point is capturing her the way she actually cooks. Most of the direction happens before filming, during the planning call, so the day itself feels natural rather than scripted.
It's more common than not, and it's part of why we keep the crew small and mighty rather than bringing in a full production team. Most people relax within the first few minutes once they're just doing something familiar — cooking — instead of "performing."
Typically in the 5–12 minute range per recipe, depending on how the story unfolds during filming — long enough to feel like a real film, short enough that people actually watch the whole thing.
The core package includes the finished, edited film. If you'd like the raw footage as well, ask during your planning call — it can be arranged.
Yes — some of the most meaningful moments happen when a daughter, grandchild, or spouse is in the kitchen too. Let us know who you'd like involved during pre-production so the day can be planned around it.
Just the ingredients and her usual kitchen setup. The free planning call covers everything else — what to have on hand, simple styling touches, and any story details worth mentioning on camera.
Light styling guidance is included in every package — small adjustments to make the kitchen read well on camera. We work with what's already there rather than bringing in a separate prop kit.
Reach out and we'll put together a custom multi-day plan. The three-recipe package is the largest single-day option, but larger family recipe collections can be scheduled across more than one visit.
No — YouTube channel hosting is optional and only happens if you want it. By default, your film is delivered privately for your family to keep and share however you'd like.
