You might think you know about your family tree, but surprises always surface in these masterpieces. Life and family history projects are an adventure in discovery. Photos show us what people look like; stories tell us who they were. It is empowering to know your history and the people who influenced your upbringing.

Hand over your boxes of memorabilia and old photos, and we’ll sort through for treasures. My goal with this project is to put a personality with as many names on your family tree as possible, or to focus on one life in detail.

Want to include memories from multiple people? A Remembrance Book is a beautiful way to collect the individual’s brief biography and complement it with personal memories from friends and family. It is a touching tribute, and one of my favorite masterpieces.
