Our Story: For the Little Moments That Make a Big Life

The first year of a child's life is a beautiful, chaotic blur. It's a year of first smiles, tiny hands wrapped around a finger, and sleepy, late-night cuddles. It’s a time when every day brings a new discovery, yet the days themselves can blend into one another.

FirstMemories was born from that exact feeling. Watching a little one grow, we realised that while our camera rolls were full, the stories behind the photos were starting to fade. We remembered the big milestones, of course, but what about the little things? The funny face they pulled on a Tuesday, the story behind their first real giggle, the quiet magic of an ordinary afternoon.

These are the moments that truly build a life story, but they are also the first to be forgotten in the whirlwind of new parenthood.

We knew there had to be a better way. A way to preserve these memories without the pressure of creating a perfect, time-consuming scrapbook. We imagined a simple, joyful ritual instead of a daunting project.

That idea became FirstMemories.

Our mission is to make it effortless for parents to hold onto these fleeting moments. By capturing just one photo and one short story each week, you build a rich, detailed narrative of your baby's first year as it happens. No more falling behind. No more photos trapped on a phone. Just a simple, weekly practice that results in a beautiful, tangible book filled with the memories you’ll treasure most.

We believe that the most powerful legacies are built from the small, everyday moments of love and laughter. From our family to yours, thank you for letting us be a part of your incredible journey. We can't wait to see the beautiful book you'll create.
