We propose a setup for quantum memory based on a single two-level atom in a half cavity with a moving mirror. We show that various temporal shapes of incident photon can be efficiently stored and readout by shaping the time-dependent decay rate $\gamma(t)$ between the atom and the light. This is achieved uniquely by an appropriate motion of the mirror without the need for additional control laser or atomic level. We present an analytical expression for the efficiency of the process and study its dependence on the ratio between the incident light field bandwidth and the atomic decay rate. We discuss possible implementations and experimental issues, particularly for a single atom or ion in a half cavity quantum optical setup as well as a superconducting qubit in the context of circuit QED.
