PHOTO MEMOIRS

Are for people that are looking to organize photos for safe keeping and tell a story at the same time. Typically, these books would require less time to create, as manuscripts can be very time consuming. Told in first person, they maintain the voice of the person telling the story. Photo Memoirs generally consist of 3 hours of audio interview and 3 hours to choose the best photos to accompany the story.

MEMOIRS

A Memoir is a comprehensive narrative manuscript that translates to a life story. The interview process for the narrative is quite extensive as is the transcription. It is up to the narrator as to the length and depth they care to take their personal history. The finished product is either a hard or soft bound book that your family will treasure.

We also provide an editing and finishing service for those of you that have started or finished your own Memoir and may have put aside due to lack of time or frustration.


FAMILY HISTORIES

Family Histories would include chronological facts (births/deaths/marriages/locations), family stories, and visuals (photographs, letters, and memorabilia). All the information would be compiled and organized into a preserved and bound keepsake.



MEMORIAL TRIBUTES

The loss of a loved one can be devastating. The Memorial Tribute book is a wonderful way to preserve the memory of a family member that is no longer with us. The Tribute is rich with pictures and family remembrances that show the unique personality and life of the departed. 

MEMORIAL BLOGS

A Memorial Blog is a great way to get an instant fix when missing a loved one. These Blogs are online Memorial Tributes and are rich with photos and stories.

SCRAPBOOK

The Scrapbook takes the Photo Memoir to the next level. Included in the book are scanned images of all things the client finds valuable in representing themselves. A fun and whimsical approach, focusing on individuality is the best way to describe these beautiful books.

SCRAPBOOK PLUS

The Scrapbook Plus includes an Oral History CD in an archival case to accompany the lovely book.


FAMILY RECIPE BOOK

Many families have signature recipes that represent their unique family flavor. A Family Recipe Book is a great way to reminisce about special family moments gathered around the dinner table. The Recipe Book would include family stories in relationship to each favorite dish.

ORAL HISTORY

An Oral History is a series of recorded interviews that are put onto a CD and are held in an attractive archival keepsake case. This is a great way to preserve a loved one's voice and hear their stories as they tell them.
