Questions families ask before starting a Legacy Book

A Legacy Book is a hardcover keepsake built from your family photos, stories, letters, voice notes, and meaningful moments. It is made to feel personal, not like a generic photo album.

We focus on the story behind the photos. We help organize memories, write captions, shape chapters, and turn scattered material into a book your family can actually read and revisit.

Most families start with a family story, parent tribute, grandparent book, love story, memorial book, or milestone gift. You can also begin with a self-serve option if you already know what you want to include.

A simple book can move quickly once materials are gathered. More guided books depend on how much you upload, how much writing help you want, and how many revisions your family needs before print.

Your memories should stay private and protected. The current preview uses local browser drafts, and production storage should be connected before paid fulfillment goes live.

You do. Your photos, stories, recordings, letters, and family materials remain yours. Loresta only uses them to help create your book and support your order.

No. Family memories are not advertising inventory. The product depends on trust, privacy, and careful handling of personal material.

Yes. The production experience should include a clear deletion path so families can remove project materials when they no longer need us to hold them.

No. AI can organize, draft, summarize, and polish what your family provides, but it should not invent life events, relationships, or fake stories.

It can help group materials into chapters, suggest prompts, draft captions, summarize recordings, and turn messy notes into a clearer story for you to review.

Yes. You should be able to review the book before it is printed and request changes so the final version still sounds like your family.

You can correct it before print. Human review, family edits, and approval are important because authenticity matters more than speed.

Choose a package, tell us who the book is for, add the memories you already have, and continue into details. The paid launch should connect secure payment and upload storage before real orders are accepted.

The site is prepared for Stripe payment links, so card payments and supported Stripe methods can be used once payment links are connected.

Yes. A Legacy Book works well as a gift for a parent, grandparent, partner, sibling, or family member. You can start with just a few materials and add more later.

Because each book is custom, refunds should depend on where the project is in the process. Before print, changes and cancellations are easier. After print, the policy should be clear before checkout.

The initial checkout is written for US shipping. Additional locations can be added once fulfillment and shipping costs are finalized.

Shipping time depends on printing, proof approval, and carrier speed. The clearest promise is to show an estimated production and delivery window before payment.

A Legacy Book should arrive in protective packaging that feels gift-ready and keeps the hardcover safe during delivery.

If a book arrives damaged, contact support with photos of the packaging and book. The production policy should make replacement steps simple and fair.
