Personal Heirlooms

Heirloom Interview

Record someone's stories and spirit, forever. Includes:

  • A get-to-know-you planning conversation.

  • A thoughtful, in-depth interview guided by a caring pro that's spent a lifetime creating safe spaces for people to share their story.

  • The unedited interview, delivered as a downloadable audio file with a full written transcript.

Audio Portrait (one voice)

A beautifully edited and produced memoir heirloom that includes:

  • An 8-12 minute documentary Audio Portrait akin to one you'd hear on a podcast or NPR.

  • Drawn from two one-hour interviews. Often, it's the second interview that shines—people remember more, and the conversation is richer and deeper.

  • Digital delivery of the Audio Portrait, with quick download of high-quality files.

  • A physical copy of the Audio Portrait on your choice of CD, vinyl record, or cassette.

  • Full downloadable recordings of each full interview.

  • Complete written transcripts of both the Audio Portrait and interviews.

Audio Portrait (two voices)

Two people telling a shared story—perhaps a couple recounting their origin story, siblings reflecting on growing up—interviewed individually and/or together.

  • Includes all the deliverables above.

  • Interviews structured based on your situation and stories.

Your family is unique. So are our custom packages.

  • Add additional interviews (in-person sessions may require travel fees).

  • Invite a spouse, child, or close friend to sit in on an interview.

  • Add additional physical copies (e.g. an extra vinyl record) of your Audio Portrait.

  • Add an elegant hardcover book compiling carefully, lightly-edited interview transcripts. Includes 5-10 family photos per story.

  • Grow the audio into a video of your Audio Portrait that includes a tasteful, simple photo slideshow with family photos, or clips from home movies/videos.

We'll shape price based on your choices.
