Start with one photograph

A simple conversation can preserve more than the picture.

PRACTICAL GUIDE · START SMALL PAPER CO.

Choose a photograph together and ask permission before recording or sharing someone’s story.
Ask: who was there? What happened just before the picture? Which small detail still makes you smile?
Write one answer in the person’s own words. Separate a remembered detail from a confirmed date.
Add names and an approximate date if known. Keep private stories private and let the person decide what others may see.
