The Family Legacies Experience

The Family Legacies interview and
filming process is like nothing you
have ever experienced…

…it is an adventure that you will
remember for the rest of your lives.

Before the film date, you’ll have an opportunity to get to know Susan, a skilled interviewer who will ask you questions, get the ideas rolling, and make sure you’re fully prepared and comfortable for your film date.

Home Transformation

On the days of your filming adventure, our crew transforms your home into a professional film studio.

Makeup Crew

Meanwhile, you’ll relax and enjoy being pampered by our talented makeup and hair artist who’ll make sure each family member looks and feels their best.

Susan will compassionately lead you through your family history and the stories of your life, helping you weave in the values and important life lessons you want to pass down to future generations.

Family Legacies Interview

When interviewing family members together, we’ll discuss important subjects and feelings. Parents will learn from their own children what life lessons they’ve taken away from their parents’ lives. Children will learn what their parents admire and respect most about them. Our clients tell us that after reliving their lives, the obstacles they’ve overcome, and the achievements they’ve treasured, they feel like there’s nothing in life they can’t handle.

In the meantime, our professional archivist will be scanning the photographs and documents you want to include in the video, onsite, so they never have to leave your home.

Scanning photos and documents

If desired, our crew will capture areal drone footage of your home, estate or businesses to incorporate in the film – a wonderful way to showcase some of the major accomplishments of your lifetime.

Pearls of Wisdom From Our Treasure Chest of Family History Videos

Life is full of bumps in the road, but in between the bumps you've got to giggle.

I hope everyone watching this video and every human being realizes that the secret to being happy in life is self-confidence and feeling good about yourself.

Nobody cares how much you know, until they know how much you care.

I want the future generations in my family to know that I don’t owe my success to being smarter than anyone else or more talented than anyone else. I just worked harder than anyone else.
