FAMILY DOCUMENTARIES & BOOKS
The familiar laugh. The stories you’ve never heard.
The life behind the person you love.

SOME THINGS SHOULD STAY WITH US.
There’s a whole life in the person you love. We help you gather it — through conversations, photographs and the memories only your family holds — and shape it into a film or book you can return to.
THE COLLECTION
A film to watch together.
A book to pass from hand to hand.
Start with the story. We’ll help with the rest.
Hear the voice. Catch the smile. A personal film shaped from real conversations, family photographs and home movies.
Book design concept
Stories to sit with. Photographs to linger over. A personal book of one life, or a family history told by many voices.
Start with a film, a book, or the possibility of both. We’re shaping our first projects; format, price and timing are agreed personally before you commit.
ONE FAMILY. MANY VOICES.
Mum remembers the journey. Her brother remembers the car that broke down. You remember the way she told it.
A shared family book can bring those perspectives together — memories, photographs and stories from different relatives, woven into one place.

People.
Everything
in between.
Our lives,
together.
DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVES. ONE FAMILY STORY.
A LITTLE CONVERSATION. A LASTING CONNECTION.
You don’t need to write a life story.
Or put every photograph in order.
You just need somewhere to begin.
Tell us who you have in mind. Together, we choose a direction and a comfortable way for them to share.
Conversations, old photographs, a home movie. Invite other family members to add their perspective.
We bring the material into a story. You help check the details and review what belongs in the finished piece.
A film for an evening together. A book opened again and again. Something to share with the next generation.
Real stories. Handled with care. Your family’s own words and material. Respect for what stays private. Your review before anything is shared publicly.
A FEW THINGS YOU MAY BE WONDERING
They don’t need an extraordinary story. The everyday things — a first job, the house they grew up in, a family tradition — are often what you’ll most want to keep. We start with familiar memories and follow their lead.
Yes, that’s a direction we can plan together. A family book can include different relatives’ memories and photographs. We agree who will contribute, how their perspectives will be credited, and who will review the story.
No. Start with what you have. A voice, a few meaningful photographs or a collection of memories can give us a starting point. We’ll recommend a format that suits the material.
We can explore both from the same collection of conversations and family material. Each needs its own editing and design; we’ll agree what is practical, along with the scope and cost, before starting.
We’re developing our first projects, so we discuss each one personally. The format, number of contributors and amount of material all matter. You’ll have an agreed price and schedule before deciding to go ahead. If there’s a birthday or anniversary in mind, tell us the date.
LET’S BEGIN WITH SOMEONE YOU LOVE.
A parent. A partner. Your own life.
A whole family, with plenty to say.
Tell us a little. We’ll help you find the right shape for it.
