SEPIA

A family trip archive

Your trips didn’t end.
They scattered.

Across inboxes, camera rolls, and everyone’s phones. Sepia gathers what’s already there, picks the best of it, and turns each trip into a story the whole family can hold.

One email when it’s ready - nothing else, ever.

↓  How it works

Ask yourself

Do you know how many trips your family has taken?

Could you pull one up right now - not just the photos, but the whole trip: the days, the map, the memories?

When someone says “remember that trip?” - can you actually go back to it?

Most families can’t. Sepia exists so yours can - a few clicks, and it’s all back.

It starts with what you already have

The trip left a trail.

The confirmations are sitting in your inbox. The photos are on four phones. Sepia reads only what looks like a booking, finds the days and the places and the drives between them, and lays the trip out the way you remember it.

The difference

A caption that knows
where you were

A photo app

“A cozy dinner by the water.”

Sepia

Dinner at the Harbor Light, night two - Nonna’s first oysters.
Named from your confirmation

Photo apps see pixels. Sepia knows the trip - the inn’s name, the ferry’s time, who was at the table - because your own confirmations say so. Nothing is invented.

Every trip becomes a story

Days, places, and the road between them

PORTLAND CAMDEN THE FERRY BAR HARBOR the day nobody photographed, kept anyway

Day three · Bar Harbor

The morning the fog lifted

By eight the harbor had reappeared, and everyone was already on the water. Nonna ordered the oysters she’d been talking about since Tuesday, Maren found the lighthouse trail before lunch, and the ferry home ran late enough that nobody minded staying for one more chowder.

Every line starts as a draft. You’re the editor - change anything, it’s your story.

Whose photos are missing?

Everyone’s photos. One story.

The best photo of you is on someone else’s phone. Everyone adds theirs with a link - no app, no account to make - and each one carries their name in the story.

Made for the family group chat

It arrives as a link

No app to install, no login, no account. The story opens right in the group chat - on a grandparent’s phone, instantly, beautifully.

Read the whole thing twice. Who took the lighthouse one?

The archive runs backward

Not just your next trip.
All of them.

The trips from years ago are still in your inbox. Most people guess low when they try to count them; your inbox knows exactly, and counting is the first thing Sepia does - then it brings each one back, dates, places, and all. So - what’s your number?

More than printing

Not another photo book app

Putting a camera roll on paper is the easy part. The work is everything before that - and with Sepia, it’s already done when you arrive.

The finding

Trips surface from your inbox with their dates, places, and reservations - even the ones you’d half-forgotten.

The picking

Out of four hundred photos, the keepers: the sharp one from the burst of fourteen, the one with everyone in frame - not thirteen near-identical sunsets.

The writing

Each day arrives with its story already drafted, people and places named from the evidence. You’re the editor - change anything.

When it’s worth keeping on a shelf

Then, something you can hold

Made from the story itself - its days, its places, your family’s captions. The story comes first; the shelf is up to you.
