"Life can only be understood looking backwards; but it must be lived forwards."
— Soren Kierkegaard
Personal Storytelling is Our Passion
At Souvenera, we believe that every person has an extraordinary life story...waiting to be told.
Your life story reflects your choices, your challenges and your dreams. It is your legacy of memories and lessons — and putting it in writing can teach and inspire your children, grandchildren, family and friends.
Beyond that, in telling your life story, the one person who may be most inspired is you.
Our Process
It all begins with a conversation…
We offer a complimentary consultation to answer any questions you might have about Souvenera and submit a detailed proposal.
When you are ready to proceed, our process looks like this.
-
You talk. We listen.
Through a series of recorded interviews and deep conversations over time, we hear your story of your life. We ask relevant questions, capturing everything that you feel is important and preserve your voice in the retelling.
-
We write.
Inspired by you, we help shape your recollections into a compelling narrative that highlights your defining moments, revealing core beliefs, deeper meaning, and life lessons learned.
-
We create.
Each Souvenera commission is a work of art and no two are alike. Your book is customized to reflect your character and taste. We use handmade papers, timeless fonts, embossed leathers and archival printing.
