When they can't make the journey Their voice still can
A sister in Sydney. A brother in Toronto. The people an ocean away, recorded wherever they are, and woven into the keepsake of your day.
NEAR AND FAR
When the people you love are living abroad
Some moments are just too important for distance to decide.
It's an Irish story as old as the country itself — the people you love most don't all live down the road. A sister settled in Sydney. A godparent working in Dubai. Cousins who grew up together and now wake up in different time zones. When the day comes for a wedding or a christening, the ones who shaped your life can't always travel home for it.
The day itself will be captured beautifully: photographed, filmed, remembered. But the voices of the people who couldn't travel are the easiest thing to lose, and often the thing you'd most want to keep.
Your keepsake is built from the voices in the room. Remote Voices simply widens the circle, so the family who couldn't travel are recorded wherever they are in the world, and become part of the keepsake alongside everyone who made it.
HOW IT WORKS
Recorded wherever they are, produced like everyone else
Some journeys are too far.
A voice doesn't have to be.
1. I guide the recording
Once you tell me who can't travel, I reach out to them directly. It's usually done on a video call, or I send simple instructions so they can record on their phone — whatever suits them. No apps to learn, no studio needed. I make sure they feel relaxed and sound their best before recording anything worth keeping.
2. I produce it to the same standard
Their recording is cleaned, levelled and carefully prepared so it sits naturally alongside the voices captured on the day. I work with the quality of the original recording rather than disguising where it came from, with the aim of making every contribution feel part of the same finished keepsake.
3. Their voice joins the keepsake
The finished audio recording is woven into your keepsake alongside everyone who was there on the day, so the people who couldn't travel are part of the same final piece — not a separate file added at the end.

Questions about Remote Voices
-
That's absolutely fine. I keep the process simple and can guide contributors directly by video call if needed. They don't need specialist equipment or recording knowledge, and I can talk them through anything they're unsure about.
-
Yes.
If you would like a contribution kept private from the recipient until the finished keepsake is delivered, let me know and I can manage communication with the contributor discreetly.
-
There is no fixed number built into the service.
If several people are unable to attend, we can discuss who you would like to include and what will work naturally within the finished keepsake.
-
Recording conditions vary, particularly when somebody is using their own phone or device.
I professionally prepare every remote contribution so it works naturally alongside the voices captured on the day, while being realistic about the quality of the original recording.
-
Remote Voices become part of your finished Infectious Memories audio keepsake rather than being treated as a separate collection of recordings.
The precise scope and delivery will be agreed with you beforehand so you know exactly what is being created.
