Vendor Spotlight: Laura Hooper, Calligrapher

Laura Hooper, Calligrapher
http://www.lhcalligraphy.com/

Laura Hooper’s been in the professional world of calligraphy for about a decade. After doing the invitations for her best friend’s wedding at 21, her Dad bought her a website domain, she built the site and clients started pouring in. Thus Laura Hooper Calligraphy was born. She absolutely loves what she does and is very glad she listened to her Dad who always told her to find a way to turn her hobby into a career. If only all of us took our parents’ sound advice…!
Laura loves being creative, molding invitations and intricately designed maps that combine her clients’ personal styles with her own added twist. And because Laura has a natural gift for hand calligraphy, you can expect that your invites or save-the-dates will be a one-of-a-kind deal. Most stationers don’t offer hand calligraphy, so by using Laura, you’ll gain more control over the design process and she’ll be able to create a truly unique piece for your big day.

You can also expect a high level of customer service: “I try to keep office hours, but if I am up working, I’ll immediately reply to emails personally if all possible. Typically, if a job needs to be done, I’ll stay up late and work weekends or holidays so that my orders stay on schedule and my clients are all happy.” At the end of the day, Laura stresses that she wants all her clients to feel taken care of and that they are getting the most beautiful piece of artwork imaginable. Spoken like a true artist.
