For many years I had spent countless hours on a project on the life of my mother that more recently had been quite dormant due to my lack of knowledge and skills in layout and design and my insistence that the book could not be anything but stunning. Last year, Della Hilton was introduced to this incomplete project of mine. What unfolded was truly remarkable. To begin with, Della was willing to gain new skills. My desire for my mother’s… Read more “Truly Remarkable”
Oh my heck, I just don’t even know where to begin. On the old 8mm home movies from 1962, nothing could have prepared me for viewing them after you sent me the digitized versions. I should have gotten a box of Kleenex or roll of paper towels before I started. I have very few possessions that belonged to my mother but I do have 80-100 photos. But they still didn’t prepare me for seeing her in video. All of a… Read more “”

I was waiting to find someone that could help me edit,… Read more “One of my most meaningful projects ever”

She kept us informed about style, layout, design and came up with a book that is… Read more “”
Several siblings and I hired Della Hilton, founder of Legacy Autobiography, to do the layout and design of a book on our deceased Mother’s life. The book contains tributes by our Mother’s siblings, friends, children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and others. We also had about 350 pictures from the time our Mother was a toddler to shortly before her death at age 89 that were to be part of the book. Della took our information, did a life sketch from my mother’s… Read more “The Life of Sharon Robbins Boud”
Della is amazing to work with! She is very talented, concise and professional. She will communicate with you clearly and precisely to get the finished product completed. Della was able to put together the most beautiful life history and tribute of my mother. She showed patience and professionalism working with four siblings; all with different personalities and demands. I also had her scan many precious historical photos in which she was able to retouch and improve the quality. She not… Read more “Amazing production of life time memories!”
