Lasting Stories was founded by Styles Wilson, a veteran TV and commercial producer whose work has supported world-class brands, including Disney and Johnson & Johnson. But the heart of this company did not begin in a studio. It began with a loss.

When Styles’ grandmother, Celo, passed away, her photographs remained, but her voice, cadence, laughter, and lived perspective did not. She had helped rebuild post-war Germany, carrying uncommon intelligence and resilience. Yet much of what she knew never made it into the family record. Styles realized that images can preserve a moment, but they cannot preserve presence.

That realization became the mission of Lasting Stories: to create cinematic, honest, and deeply human portraits that capture more than a timeline. We preserve the nuance of a life, the character behind the achievements, and the wisdom that families often discover too late they wish they had asked for.

Today, we pair premium filmmaking with a modern, structured process designed to make story capture simple, secure, and repeatable. The result is not content. It is an heirloom: a legacy your family can return to for decades, with the dignity and care it deserves.
