I found Laura by doing a google search for calligraphers in the Los Angeles area. I was impressed by her website so I contacted her. I was able to get right through and arranged to drop my envelopes off within the next few days. I requested to have the envelopes back within 25 days of drop off and they were done in 6 days! When I picked them up I was blown away. They are beautiful! I had been impressed with Laura's work on her site, but that does not hold a candle to what it looks like in person. Her work is truly exquisite. We are now looking for other things we can have her work on for our wedding. We plan to order sand dollar place cards from her as well. Laura is professional, courteous and reasonably priced. I highly recommend Laura Hooper calligraphy.
