Commemorate your family with an Akin Holiday Collection this season.

The Holiday Collection includes a commemorative book, family tree print, and namesake notecards — schedule your consultation today!

 

Creating your family history book is easier than you think.

Akin guides the process so you don’t have to. We review what you know — and research what you may not know. We then compile what we’ve learned and gather imagery and illustrations to design your unique book.

 

We offer an assortment of book themes to choose from.

From research summaries to lineage collections — we offer designs that thoughtfully commemorate individuals and families — so they can be shared for generations to come.

Akin curates your ancestral retrospectives using family memorabilia, all-inclusive design know-how, and genealogical discoveries — creatively composed through storytelling and tailored design.

What They’re Saying

I have been very pleased with the work done by Renee Innis of Akin to help me bring my family history book to completion. She was very pleasant, prompt, and obliging to work with — and an extremely interested and professional publishing designer.

Renee surpassed my expectations, by putting together a three volume integrated series with individual yet unified design, thoughtful layouts, illustrated with a combination of original sketches and images. When I brought the first draft book over to the grandchildren's home to take a look at, my adult daughter took a look at it and learned some new things about me that I don't think she knew before.

Digging into your family history can be both daunting and fascinating. Working with Renee at Akin made the process more comfortable. What I loved about working with Renee was how much joy and interest she took in learning and researching about my family and sharing that information with me. She truly loves genealogy work and combining it with her beautiful and creative design skills.

My step-dad was thrilled. He said the research gave him the information he wondered about for so many years plus additional information he didn't even know existed. So it was a big hit and got to him in time for his birthday! Thanks so much for a fantastic job!

I wanted a really special gift for my brother’s milestone birthday — he always lamented that he didn’t have many photos from his childhood, so I worked with Akin to create this memorable gift. It was a great to have Renee’s expertise in design and genealogy to create a thoughtful and lasting present for him. I’m looking forward to working with Akin on future projects for my relatives!
