Frequently Asked Questions

How long does it typically take to complete a life story? +

Most projects take 2-6 months depending on the scope and your availability. We work at your pace to ensure quality over speed.

Do I need to be tech-savvy to work with an Angel? +

Not at all! That's exactly why LifeHistory Angels exist. We handle all the technical aspects while you focus on sharing your memories.

Can I cancel or pause my service? +

Yes, absolutely. You can pause or cancel anytime with 7 days notice. We want this to be a positive experience, not a burden.

What if I have physical photos that need scanning? +

We can help coordinate photo scanning services or guide you through doing it yourself. Some Angels offer in-person scanning assistance depending on your location.

Will my Angel write my stories for me? +

Your Angel helps capture and organize your stories in your own voice. They'll assist with writing, editing, and structuring, but the stories remain authentically yours. We can also interview you and transcribe your stories from there.

How do sessions work—phone, video, or in-person? +

Most sessions are conducted via video Zoom calls for your convenience, though phone sessions are available. In-person sessions may be possible in select locations.

What happens after my life story is complete? +

Your completed life history becomes a digital PDF file that you can easily share with family or friends, and we can help you to generate printed books or magazines whenever you'd like.
