Gathering

• Begin with what feels true to your story.
• Unearth keepsakes from drawers, boxes, and shelves—each one may hold a forgotten spark.
• Use our Guidebook to help you list and locate materials from every corner of your home.

Photographing

• Our package includes two options:
– We can visit your home to photograph items.
– Or you can send albums to us by courier—we’ll return them within a week.
• Prefer to do it yourself? Our Guidebook shows how to use natural light to capture beautiful, clear images.

File Naming

• Consistent file names are essential.
• Clear naming helps us organize your materials logically and ensures nothing gets lost in the process.

Captioning

• Our captioning Guidebook helps you pair images with meaningful descriptions.
• These captions add emotional depth and context to your story.

Uploading

• We’ll set up a dedicated Google Drive workspace for you.
• This will host all your scanned images, audio-visual files, and documents in one secure, organized place.

Structuring Your Book

• Take a moment to reflect on your book’s theme and overall arc.
• Once you’ve outlined a structure, name each chapter thoughtfully.
• Use these chapter titles as folder names to group related images, documents, and notes.
