Before the Story Is Lost —A Getting Started Guide to Capturing Your Family Story

A Getting Started Guide to Capturing Your Family Story

You already have more than you think.

Photos, voice notes, memories.

The story is there, you just need a way to begin.

A simple framework to help you start.

If you’ve ever thought:

• “We don’t know where to start”
• “We should do this before it’s too late”
• “I don’t want these stories to disappear”

This guide is for you.

Three steps. One Story

Turn what you already have into something that lasts.

Not everything, just one story.
