Booked One Week Before the Wedding
From Colleen
“They exceeded every expectation… We booked just one week before my wedding day and they provided the whole experience, plus some!
They were in communication from 5:30AM, sending GPS location updates and even a photo so I wouldn’t stress…
We had sneak peeks fast, raw photos to choose from, and the finished edits in a week. They even delivered extra edits as a bonus.
Booking last minute, I wasn’t expecting much, but they made me feel like I booked them a year ahead.”
Her final thought says it all:
“Who could live up to Stephanie & Son?”
That’s our goal every time: treat last-minute clients like luxury clients.
