Still Life Stories - "Solitaire" session

Is there an object in your home with a story just begging to be told? We all understand the importance of l’do v'dor—from generation to generation—but there is a big difference between handing down your grandmother’s menorah and giving your children the details of its journey from Europe. Without these stories—illustrating what your grandmother’s life was like in the old country, and the perils she faced in starting anew—that menorah is just another object. With them, it embodies essential family history.

Still Life Stories is donating a “Solitaire” session valued at $490 to help you or a loved one immortalize an important story of your own. The session includes an 11"x14" archival print of the treasured object, and a one-on-one interview with yourself or a family member that gets to the heart of its story. 

Those with stories to tell understand fully what these stories mean to family legacies. This session makes a great gift to reinforce to your bubbie that you understand it, too.
