Amber Family History, Inc. is a family history company dedicated to telling your story – we digitize your photos and record your stories, compiling it all into a secure online archive, complete with audio and video recordings, writing, scanned photos and documents, and much more. Accessible by generations to come, the online archive is a modern version of the ubiquitous box of photos and papers that every family has – passed down through generations, it is a valuable repository of memories.
Each project is personally supervised by AFH’s founder, an in-house expert who will guide you through every step of your project, and we work one-on-one with our customers at their pace. The process of creating your family history begins with a free one-hour consultation, where we discuss the project and goals, identify the story or stories to be told, and create a blueprint for the project. Using a unique oral history-based storytelling method, Amber Family History gives our customers flexibility in telling their story, enabling us to collect stories from every perspective and create a more personal product. As part of our process, we digitize and enhance old photos and videos, help customers find a narrative linking past to present, and, on customer request, can research the historical environment of recorded events and make family trees. Our flexible packages, competitive pricing, and digitally-focused business model make an AFH family history the perfect family heirloom or gift, ensuring that you can pass your family’s story down through generations.
Amber Family History’s mission is to organize, sort, and record family histories. We work with customers to create a fully-digital online archive with writing, photos/documents, audio recordings, a family tree, and a compiled family history. Using an oral history methodology, our historians work one-on-one with customers to bring their story to life, as organically and authentically as possible. We strive to create the platform and tools for our customers to tell their stories their way, creating a personalized and thoughtful product to last generations.
AFH makes family histories for everyone. We listen to and collect your stories, sort them with your photos, and create a readable and organized narrative. See examples of our work below.
Send you photos to us to be scanned and digitized. Using our professional equipment, AFH makes digital copies of your most important heirlooms – a digital safety net for your precious memories. Our flexible pricing, various packages, and personal touch make AFH an attractive option for all of your needs.
Oral history methodology lies at the heart of what AFH does. Rather than recording and editing an individual’s stories, oral histories can capture different viewpoints to bring the past to life, creating a personal and intimate portrait of your family.
Privacy and security are at the core of AFH’s values. All materials are stored and processed on-site, in a secure and safe environment. Our small, dedicated team is available around the clock to answer questions and provide updates on your materials, from the second they enter our facility to when they depart.
