At the end, There is a beginning
If the time has come, it washes away the pain. A relief for some, a grief for others.
When the Time is Near
Some may have experienced it already, some have not. The loss of loved ones can be a very difficult situation.
Something that cannot always be talked about easily or expressed in words. Loss takes time and we may not get over it at all. Here at Glaenzel Photography LLC we are here for you to capture the moments before the end of life and even after death.
helping WITH THE GRIEF
We keep everything strictly confidential and within our hearts. Creating the memories during this journey can help you cope with your grief and loss. Remembering the great moments, the laughter and joy during the times you all spent together with your loved ones.
Our services reach from “end of life” until after life. We will try to help you with your loved ones’ transition as easy and comfortable as possible. If it is at your home, with hospice or at the funeral home, we coordinate, with your permission, with the facility or the funeral home and any others who are involved to make any arrangements as smooth as possible.
Every photograph we create is yours. 100%. This is your personal memory from your part of your life. These Photographs will NEVER be accessible to anyone else, except whom you may give permission to access. This is our promise to you.
The purple call
Sometimes it takes only minutes, a very time sensitive moment when the call comes in.
Capturing the last minutes or even the minutes after it. August 25th of 2021 about 1.45 pm. The call reached me that one of our youngest citizens of this planet did not made it and if i would be available. YES, not even 2 minutes later i was on the road towards the hospital.
In every situation regardless when and where Glaenzel Photography LLC is set aside and it is just myself, like any other human beings to help the family in this difficult time. Being there and capturing the last time a moment what will last forever in our hearts and along the entire time.
My deepest condolences are to the mother and father as well to the entire family.

The difference
We do not see you and your loved ones just as a client or customer, more like a connection with each other, another human being with feelings and emotions.
These are the last moments to be memorialized. Photography is a tool that can help people in their grief journey. Losing a child, a friend, grandparents or parents all impact our lives as they leave us.
What does it cost ?. The answer is very simple, as much you wanna give. We will provide you information where you can pay whatever you want. Helping as much as we can, is the highest goal from us to you.
The only fee that applies are the millage and equipment cover cost, what are usually less than a meal

we can feel it.
We know how much of a pain it is to lose a loved one. Torsten Glaenzel lost his Mom the second day of January 2022. Receiving this message from his Dad in Germany this day could not be expressed with any words, not to be there at this time and moment made it even harder and more painful ever. This moment was surreal, and it still is and ever will be. MOM I MISS YOU. In my heart you will be ever there and I hear your voice, your spirit is now free and not trapped in time or space. He lost his niece when he was very young and later his grandparents, as well many other family members. He remembers when he was very young, the moment the doors at the church opened and the pallbearers came in to take the coffin on the last walk. “My chest felt a punching pain, pressure. I couldn't cry at first,” he said. That was the hardest moment, the realization of never seeing the person he loved again. Every funeral was always the same feeling, nothing changed, a repetitive emotional moment.
Walking behind the coffin on the way to the grave site, it seemed as if the world paused. No wind, no temperature, no smell, no sound, nothing.. Saying goodbye for the last time. Forever.
We understand how you are feeling and want you to have lasting memories of your loved ones. Forever. Let us know how we can help.
“I can not see you, I can not touch you, i can not hear you. Within me YOU are always there.”
