One of the questions you'll answer

"Was there a moment when you noticed your child had changed or grown in a new way?"

When he helped me give his twin brothers a bath without being prompted
→
Without Being Asked

It happened during bath time. George's twin brothers were in the water, and without anyone suggesting it, George moved in to help. He just did it. He found his place beside the bath and took part in getting his brothers clean. It was not a big moment in the way that some moments announce themselves. There was no particular fuss made. But something about it stayed. Because it was unprompted. Because he chose to be useful before anyone thought to ask him...

A story you will love and grandparents will treasure. Written to be read quietly, years from now, and recognised as true.

The process

You show up. We do the rest.

01

Answer a few questions

Tell us about the year. Ordinary days. Small changes. What mattered most. You don't need to write anything polished, that's our job.

02

Upload your photos

Choose photos from your phone or computer. Everyday moments are exactly right. You need between 24 and 36. Your photos are deleted 30 days after your book is made.

03

We make the book

We write the story, arrange the photos, and review everything carefully before anything is sent.

04

Receive your book

Printed hardcover is made and shipped to you free of charge. The digital version arrives by email within 24 hours.

Just your memories and your photos, turned into something you will read years from now.

No. You answer questions, some short, some that ask you to think for a moment. We write the story. The words in the book are yours, shaped entirely by what you have told us.
Everyday photos from your phone are perfect. Between 24 and 36. You don't need professional shots, ordinary moments work better. The ones you almost didn't take.
Your digital book is delivered by email within 24 hours. The printed hardcover is shipped and delivered free of charge in 5–10 days depending on your location.
OneBook is a book about your child's year, written for the adults who love them. Your child will enjoy reading it when they are older, that's part of the point.
No. Your photos are placed into your book exactly as you uploaded them. We use AI to help write the story, we do not use AI on your photos, and we never use your images to train any model. Your photos are automatically deleted 30 days after your book is delivered. As parents ourselves, this matters to us.
I'm a photographer and a parent. Every year I take hundreds of photos of my son. They stayed in the camera roll. I tried to print some. I tried making a photo book. But individual photos don't tell the full story, and designing a photo book is slow and laborious. I wanted something simpler — one book, every year, that will hold the version of him I was about to lose. So I built it. — Petr, founder and parent.

One book every year. A shelf of childhood.

This year is still here. The way they talk, the things they love, the version of them that exists right now — it is all still here.
Next year, this year will be harder to remember.
