About the Project

Life in a Year is a storytelling project— focused on capturing the ordinary, magical moments that often pass us by.It began as a simple idea: record one second of video each day. That small act turned into over a decade of memories and a reminder that meaning hides in the quietest parts of life.Through this project, we help busy families pause, reflect, and tell their own stories with just their phones and a little intention.

We believe every family has a story worth remembering. Here are a few glimpses into ours—made simply with a phone and a whole lot of heart.
