What is a Life Story Video?
A Life Story Video is a professionally filmed conversation that tells your story — your experiences, milestones, and reflections — in your own words.
It’s more than an interview. It’s a living record of a life well lived.

Who is a Life Story Video for?
Anyone who wants to share their journey or celebrate a loved one’s story.
Many families create these videos for parents, grandparents, or milestone anniversaries, ensuring their voices and memories are preserved for future generations.

I’m not sure what to say — will you help?

Can you include photos or old videos?
