Home transition story
Before the house changes hands, preserve the stories that happened inside it.
StorySitting gathers photos, rooms, recipes, memories, and voices from across the family, then turns them into a finished Story Capsule about the home your family is about to leave.
Best for downsizing, estate transitions, family farms, long-time homes, inherited property, or a move everyone knows is emotionally bigger than logistics.
Why this moment matters
A house sale can scatter the story faster than the family expects.
Once the home is cleaned out, sold, or renovated, the family often loses the context: what happened in each room, who sat where, what was cooked, what was fixed, what was said, and what nobody thought to ask.
What we gather
Rooms, objects, voices, recipes, and the people who remember.
Tools, recipe cards, photographs, dishes, letters, furniture, records, toys, or heirlooms.
Children, siblings, cousins, grandchildren, neighbors, friends, and the people who lived it.
When the family moved in, raised children, hosted holidays, repaired rooms, or faced transitions.
A prepared conversation shaped by the family’s submissions before the session.
Edited sections, quotes, captions, voice excerpts, private digital capsule, and printable PDF.
Home, farm, room, object
Capture the story while the setting still exists.
The right photos are not only portraits. They are the kitchen table, the truck, the barn, the recipe box, the room, the tools, and the objects that carry the family’s memory.
