“I found Suzee easy to talk to and enjoyed our sessions together very much. My family were very happy with the finished results. I am happy to recommend her services.”
Life Story Package
For those wanting to capture the highlights of their own life or that of a family member or friend.
We guide participants through two interviews to reminisce about key moments of their life. Next, we write your story for you, giving you two opportunities to check the details, before we agree on the final version (typically 10-20 A4 pages).
$2995 - You will receive up to five spiral bound copies and a digital copy of your story for easy sharing with friends and family.
Add on: Life Story Coffee Table Book
For those wanting a more visual and lasting depiction of their story for friends and family.
Starting with the finalised life story (required), we visit you to help select and scan up to 60 photographs. Next, we create a hardback coffee table style book which contains your life story and the photos. You have two opportunities to check details prior to printing.
$1995 (GST inclusive) - You will receive up to five coffee table books and labelled digital copies of your photos.
Add On: Your Eulogy & Photo Slideshow
Not everyone has an obvious person to write their eulogy, so this service is for the planners out there who want to be organised for their funeral.
We visit you to review your finalised life story (required) so we can rewrite your story into your eulogy. You have two opportunities to check the details. The final product is typically around 4-5 A4 pages. If we are creating a funeral slideshow for you, we will scan and label up to 60 photos into a PowerPoint presentation.
$2495 (GST inclusive) - You will receive a digital and paper copy of your eulogy, a digital photo slideshow and labelled digital copies of your photos.
