Audio Interview
We prefer that each project begin with an interview. The interviews can be either audio or video. This allows us to collect the voices and memories of your family members. We will then take this information and transfer it into a digital format. If you desire only the interview, we can transfer this into an audio file with a transcript (if desired). If you would like a film, we will use the information collected in the interview, adding family history information and pictures to this film. The editing of your film depends largely on the size of your project. Larger projects will take a greater amount of time to complete. A one hour audio interview generally takes five to ten hours to complete. The information incorporated into the film will come from the interview (audio or video), family pictures and home videos provided, or photographs taken by our house photographer. Other sources may be included, via the request of the client.
Photography - Mini Session
The length of this service is generally 30-45 minutes. Clients may wear up to two different outfits and choose up to two different locations. Clients will receive up to 15 edited images. A digital processing fee is included in the final cost.
Photography - Full Session
The length of this service is generally one hour to one hour and thirty minutes. Clients may wear up to three different outfits and choose up to three different locations. Clients will receive up to 40 edited images. A digital processing fee is included in the final cost.
Family History Research
The fee for the initial search (gathering basic information from the family, checking basic records, and identifying basic family members) is $25. Additional research continues at $10 an hour. We start with the information that you have: dates, legal information, pictures, etc. Then we find what's missing.
Consultation
Before choosing your service (interview, photography, slide show, etc.) please participate in our free consultation! Not only do we get to know a little more about you, we also get a better understanding of your project goals!
