Testimonals from clients of Libbie Ventiquattro Photography

Libbie was a pleasure to work with! She took wonderful pictures of our wedding and captured the essence amazingly.

- Eric and Heather Comer

Libbie went above and beyond our expectations for a wedding photographer. She's professional without being overbearing, and interested and friendly in an inobtrusive way, which made even some of our posed photos feel more candid.
- Aimee Rose and Nathan Formo

Thank you Libbie for your professionalism, patience and fun attitude. We had an awesome time working with you and your services are amazing. We definitely will be using your services again and we have told our family and friends all about you. You will always be a part of our special day.
- Fatima and Daniel Cox

Everything was taken care of and I did not have to worry with anything. Wedding portraits were delivered in a timely manner, would recommend to family and friends.
- Amy and Gary Boardwine

Mrs. Ventiquattro generously agreed to take pictures of the entire Ms. Wheelchair Virginia weekend gala April 11-13, 2008. As Assistant Coordinator for the program I worked closely with Mrs. Ventiquattro. Her personality allowed us to immediately connect and bond. She was also a professional. She worked with us and our vision; making special effort to get a backdrop, table, even flowers that would work to what we wanted for our contestant portraits. While she was busy taking pictures the entire weekend she still had time for our contestants and volunteers to fall in love with her. I feel her pictures were what we wanted and we would love to have her back again.
-Angie Wilkerson
Ms. Wheelchair Virginia Assistant Coordinator

Everything was awesome! I have received soooo many compliments on the coffee table book. This is definitely something new and so far, everyone that has looked at mine loves it! The portraits were better than expected!! We would use Libbie again in the future.
- Courtney and David Scott

___________________________________________________________

I was very pleased with the website. Unlike most websites, you gave us the packages AND prices. And for someone who was on a strict budget that was very helpful. Libbie is a wonderful photographer. Very personable and easy to work with. I plan on using her again in the future for family portraits and recommending her to friends!
- Erica and Jasper Smith

_______________________________________________________________

I only wish Libbie lived closer to us, she is very enjoyable to work with. She has a great personality and is easy to talk to. I would highly recommend her to anyone!

I’m an older bride in my late fifties who wanted to have an unusual wedding and needed to find a photographer who was really willing to work with me. I’m also a mother and a grandmother and a discriminating professional business woman who expects that I deserve to get what I pay for, including a quality product and excellent customer service. After all, I grew up in a era when good quality products and excellent customer service were not only expected but were the de facto standard for all successful businesses. These practices have all but eroded from the face of American enterprise. It seems that now consumers are supposed to be grateful if they get the bare minimum - nobody wants to “go out of there way” to make their customers happy. Businesses want you to pay a lot but they don’t want to provide a lot. I’m simply not satisfied with that. I expect more. I expect not only a quality product at a reasonable price but also responsiveness, attention and excellent customer service. I began my search for a photographer a full year before the wedding. After weeks of searching I was thrilled to find Libbie Ventiquattro Photography. I quickly secured Libbie’s services and paid her in full. Libbie worked with me from the beginning to the end and personally attended to every detail with a degree of professionalism and customer service that exceeded even my expectations. She went “out of her way” on more than one occasion and even on the day of the wedding. There is nothing average about Libbie or her services. If you are looking for a photographer that provides a high quality product and unparalleled customer service at a competitive price you have found it! This was absolutely one of the the best decisions I made other than picking my groom! Tonda King Barrett Event: 10/17/09

Photography has always been a big part of my life. I grew up in a family of shutterbugs and regardless of the occasion, whether it was a holiday, birthday, school event, or a family vacation, someone in my family always had a camera to snap photos. I loved the idea of taking pictures and preserving memories so I would grab my camera at any chance and take pictures too! That is how my love affair with photography began. But it wasn’t until my husband Dave and I had our first child in 1999 that photography took on a new meaning for me. I dreamed of having my own business and decided to really start pursuing photography. I also designed my first Web site. The majority of my work at that time involved photographing family events and landscaping scenes, traveling areas from Virginia to New York. Then in 2004 with the birth of our second child, I made the decision to put my dream on hold. In 2006 I started to pursue my dream once again and began to slowly and methodically build my portfolio. I decided to undertake more formal training in photography and graduated from the New York Institute of Photography. I’ve spent countless hours in photographic workshops and Web-based seminars as well as engaging in a great deal of self and hands-on studies to keep my skills and knowledge current. I belong to several organizations wherein I am able to use my skills: Among these are “Think Pink Photography”, “Littlest Heroes”, and “Americorps.” I was also the Webmaster, designer and photographer for the “Ms. Wheelchair Organization” for several years. My style is primarily contemporary and somewhat artistic and has a candid photojournalistic feel, mixing color with black and white photography. You will notice when looking at samples of my work that it is differs from the norm. I enjoy being able to provide something out of the ordinary but also am happy to provide more traditional photographic services as well. I am committed to giving clients the best possible services and photographic images available. Whether it’s a small portrait session, a large wedding or a non-profit organization I strive to put all I have into a great experience. I’ve had the pleasure of shooting weddings for a many years now and love the overall experience of working in this area. I always strive to capture even the smallest of details so that years from now those memories of that day will be forever preserved and shared. My family is a true inspiration and they bring so much meaning into my photography. Although I am first a mom, with the support of my children, and of my true love, my husband who passed away on March 29, 2010. I am also a great photographer. I can say I have been truly blessed in my life., In October of 2011 I met a wonderful man named Tony of whom my children and I absolutely love. Tony is also a very talented photographer and now shoots weddings and other sessions with me. The future looks very bright and I can't wait to see what is around the corner each day.
