Creating Your Legacy: A Timeless Treasure for Generations

Imagine holding a conversation with your grandchildren, sharing stories of your life, your values, and the moments that shaped you. At Legacy Media Production (LMP), we transform these precious memories into a beautifully crafted legacy video and/or book, a timeless treasure your family will cherish for generations.

Our Personalized Approach: Your Story, Your Way

We understand that every life story is unique. That's why we offer a personalized, step-by-step process designed to capture the essence of who you are.

Phase 1: Discovery & Planning (Dabbling Accepted!)

Begin with flexible, hourly sessions with your dedicated Story Director and Producer. These collaborative sessions allow us to:

  • Uncover Your Narrative: We'll delve into the rich tapestry of your life, exploring key events, relationships, and defining moments. Think of it as a guided conversation, where we help you weave together the threads of your personal history.

  • Explore Themes & Insights: We'll discuss topics like:

    • Your Life's Journey: From childhood memories to career milestones and beyond.

    • Family Connections: Exploring your family history and the traits you've inherited and passed on.

    • The Impact of Time & Place: How historical events, cultural shifts, and geographical locations have shaped your experiences.

    • Your Inner Self: Reflecting on your values, passions, and life lessons.

  • Curate Visuals: We'll work together to select meaningful photos and home videos that complement your story.

  • Documenting Your Legacy: We'll discuss which stories are best captured on video and which are better suited for a book, considering options for showcasing your hobbies and interests.

  • Flexible Engagement: We understand that creating a legacy is a significant undertaking. You can engage in as few or as many sessions as you like, with the option to pause and resume the process at any time and no obligation to proceed with the shooting.

Phase 2: Production

Capture Your Essence: Our expert Director of Photography and crew will come to your home or a location of your choice for a full day of filming. The Story Director will guide you through an interview-style format, ensuring your story is told authentically and engagingly.

Personalized Touches:
