Customer Reviews

  • Martha P. - ★★★★★

    "The process was so easy, my interviewer was always there to answer my questions and give me advice on what I should talk about. By time the the interview came around I wasn't nervous to talk at all. I'm so happy with the final product."

  • Willie T. - ★★★★★

    "I found the process to be incredibly simple. All I really needed was a pen and paper, and my head. I didn't really need help preparing from my interviewer, the booklet they gave me was more than enough for me to do it on my own. All and all a great trip down memory lane and I'm glad I get to keep it."

  • Harold K. - ★★★★★

    "Didn't really need much prep, my interviewer didn't mind. Just started talking and it all came out. The video came out great. Kids love it."

  • Benjamin P. - ★★★★★

    "It was a wonderful time thinking back on all of my life experiences. There were so many moments that evaded my memory for so many years, but they so quickly came back to me. The LifeCap. Prepbook really helped me through this process, it made the interview itself easy enough. They took care of the rest. Love watching the video."

  • Nadine F. - ★★★★★

    "One of the greatest moments of my life was the day I joined a circus troupe. For years, I traveled the country performing as a contortionist. Even went to Europe. This was all only a short stint fifty years ago, but I revisited those times in preparation for this interview and truly realized how those years affected the course of my life in amazing ways. I learned so much from those experiences. My grand-kids had no idea either, they were shocked to hear their dear old grandma was once in the circus."

  • Aimie S. - ★★★★★

    "Ordered this service for both of my parents and the result was so good my cousin ordered it for my aunt and uncle too. Now we're slowly getting the elder generation of my family to sit down and do their LifeCap. Interviews. We're growing this big collection of family history that everyone is sharing and watching together. And it's so amazing to think that even my great-grandchildren will be able to see it, maybe even add to it too!"

  • Lawrence D. - ★★★★★

    "Really didn't think this service would be for me. But everyone's got a story, everyone's lived a life. I tell stories about my life every day, doing this interview didn't really feel any different. The interviwer was a freindly guy and the video came out great. It was an easy process, really."

  • Horace Z. - ★★★★★

    "Strange thing to look back on your life and realize how much stuff has happened that you just never think about. Most of the stories I told were the one's my friends and family reminded me of. Moments of my life I haven't thought of in years. It really was something to look back on everything.

  • Jessica G. - ★★★★★

    "With my interviewer and the prepbook, it really took no time at all to feel comfortable and ready to tell my life story. I actually wound way overprepared and realized I had TOO MANY ideas on what to talk about! I think my interviewer knew this because she really did a good job keeping me on track. I could probably do another interview with the rest of my stories. I just might, it really was a blast!"
