Hi Sue--     I just had to drop you a quick email to tell you how delighted we were with the way the photography was handled for Emily and Jonathan's wedding. While we obviously haven't seen the prints, we know that Chrissy and Casey did a fabulous job. They were very professional and had a great rapport with the bride and groom, who felt immediately at ease with them. I could tell they were capturing the fun and spontaneity of the day in addition to all those group photos I kept pestering them for :) And we were so pleased to have you there for the morning. You, Chrissy, and Casey are wonderful, and you have selected the perfect name for your business...because that's what you deliver. Thanks so much for all you did to capture this very special day for my daughter. Sincerely,    Barbara
 

OMG, OMG    How do I thank you?  This is unreal!!!  I feel like a little kid who just woke up Christmas morning.  This is amazing!

Sue, I don't even know what to say, how to thank you.  I am so, so touched.  These are amazing!  They are the best pictures that I have ever seen.  That is all I can say right now because I am crying of happiness and I have to go get tissues!!

Dear Sue,
I cannot even put a price to the work you have done. Absolutely priceless! I am speechless! I have been in tears (happy tears) all morning looking at the beauty you captured on our wedding day. I am so grateful to you for your support on my wedding day. I believe things in our lives happen for a reason and I am so happy to have connected with you. Theses memories you have encapsulated will be forever in our hearts.
 
I will be in touch when we decide to start a family!!!
 
Sincerely,
Christine and William
 
Hi Sue!! We got our pictures in the mail took us quite awhile to get through them, there were so many to look at!! There positively breath taking!! We laughed through a lot of it. I love the black and white ones to death! The small portions of color in the photos completely enlighten it! We can't wait to see the album. If the "proof's" are this good I can't wait to see the final product. We do want you to know you've been a real pleasure to work with, and my parents adore you as well. Talk to you soon and thanks again!

Sue: Just had to thank you for all the photos you took of the wedding.  You do your job so well!  Of all the weddings I have been to none of the other photographers can hold a candle to you.  As a rule, I am very uncomfortable having my picture taken, but you made everything ok and I was at ease thru the whole day.  I know not too many people will stop and give thanks to the ones behind the scenes that are so necessary to making any occasion a success.  I didn't want to pass up the opportunity to tell you how much you are appreciated  and what a great job you did.  This "share the joy" feature tops it off, like the icing on the cake!!!   Can't wait to see the results.    Nancy (Rob's Mom)

Thank you sooooo much...I love them. We are so happy I can't even express it in words. Thank you so much you are amazing. Love Megan
 
Hi Sue,
How are you? How is your summer going?  I am SO thrilled with the photos from the wedding!  What a terrific day we had, you captured every moment of it.  I cannot thank you enough! I am hoping that soon Ryan and I will be able to sit down and pick the photos out that we'd like in the album.  Thanks for everything- hope all is well with the new gallery!
Best, Cameron
