My friend's husband of 37 years passed away, and she and her family were trying to put together a…read morecelebration of life in the midst of being full of grief. My friend purchased a sign-in book for the ceremony and wanted her husband's name on the front. My friend asked me if I could write it nicely, or if I knew anyone who could. In that instance, you know you should entrust that kind of thing to an expert, and Ana is an expert. She responded very promptly and had questions that put me at ease immediately: what was the book made of? Was it something porous? Going back and forth with a grieving family was slow-going, but Ana was patient and communicative, even with the tight turnaround. She was clear and upfront about what we should expect, and the price for her work was very reasonable. And the finished product was lovelier than I could have imagined. It was thoughtfully placed and even packaged beautifully. My friend loved the book so much and was so happy with the result. The whole experience was so positive and easy that I won't hesitate to add calligraphy to any special events that come along, because of Ana. Thank you Ana, for helping this grieving family!

Not only is Lara an amazing letterer, but she is one of the the nicest people ever! After seeing…read moreher brush caligraphy class photos on the Kitchen Table Instagram, I perused her website and learned she offers a beginners brush class and a beginners modern calligraphy writing class. I reached out to Lara via email and easily set up a private brush class for myself, my mom, and 2 girlfriends. The class went above and beyond our expectations! Lara was prompt on arrival, supplied everything needed for the class, and taught with a clear, patient, and flowing style. After two hours we each felt comfortable practicing on our own and couldn't wait to purchase more pens to play with. This holiday season I saw on her IG she was selling small and large ornaments with gorgeous calligraphy saying anything and everything you'd like on a globe. I saw the perfect gifts for friends and was not disappointed. My friends loved them and couldn't wait to trim their trees. If you're interested in learning calligraphy or need services, do not overlook this warm and friendly scribe! We look forward to expanding our skills with either her writing class or advanced brush class in the very near future.

How will you honor them, who will speak, what kind of ceremony would they have wanted. I must say the death of my beloved Grandmother hit me pretty hard. I thought a memory board with some carefully selected photos would be a great way to honor her. I began looking at memory boards online for inspiration and I thought calligraphy might be a nice touch. I contacted several calligraphers but it was too short of a notice. My Grandmother passed away Sunday and and I needed the board within a few days to assemble the photos. Queeny could not have been more kind or professional. She replied quickly to my request on Yelp and we discussed ideas and fonts. I sent her a photo of a board I liked as inspiration. I bought a black poster board at Michael's and Queeny picked it up at my place of work. The finished product as you can see was beautiful. At some point I really need to have this framed as it has become a treasured piece. Queeny thank you so much for your extraordinary work. I really appreciate you working with me on a tight timeframe but yet still doing precise and detailed work.

We were so lucky to be connected to Rosaura through our wedding planner. I'll be honest initially I was resolved to ordering invitations online because I simply didn't know that beauty like Rosaura's existed. As soon as I saw her art I was sold. It gave our invitations the personal touch which was important. Rosaura is amazingly talented and has a heart of gold, going above and beyond to send updates on her progress as she painted. The saddest part of the wedding being over is you no longer get to work with creative partners like Rosaura. Thank you, Ro!
