Hi Celeste,
Just wanted to send you a quick note to thank you for
coming to stonehurst to document our wedding. 
You were so professional and unobtrusive throughout
the entire event.  Sometimes I forgot you were even
there and then I would take a look around and sure
enough you were there documenting everything! 
Thanks so much for being so professional, reliable
and friendly.  I look forward to seeing what you captured!
Cheers,

I found Celeste Sheffey of Khoncepts online when
searching for someone to scan my paper photographs
onto CDs.  Her rate was much lower than anywhere
 else I researched.

I had a very tight timeframe and three large boxes of
photographs mixed in with papers.  Celeste went
through and scanned all of the photographs, burned
them onto CDs, and uploaded the photos online before deadline.  

Celeste is a lovely person, very pleasant and professional,
and I would enlist her help again in a heartbeat.  
I recommend her without reservation!

I am very impressed and will be sure to let everyone

                Celeste,

Just a quick note to thank you for the DVDs. 
We thoroughly enjoyed them and are very pleased 
with the result - what a great way of 
remembering a truly great day! 
Our parent's 50th wedding anniversary.

All the best for a wonderful Christmas
Celeste, Happy New Year!

I hope you and your family had a wonderful 
Christmas and are having a Happy New Year. 
Just wanted to thank you for the calendar that you 
put together for me. My family loved it! My son moved
 to PA and took it with him and is really happy about it. 
I gave one to my daughter and my mother. 

Blessings,

Hi Celeste

I was going to call you last night, but it was 
after 10 p.m. and I knew you go to bed early.  
We watched the tape when we got off of work, 
and girl, YOU OUT DONE YOURSELF!  
The tape is absolutely beautiful.  Both the pictures 
and video are a work of art.  She is going to love it.  
Both of us said, WOW!  Its such a beautiful piece of 
work.  You lived up to your contract, plus more.  
I loved the way you put the clips together to make 
the video, you used the best parts.  Dont know how 
to thank you, other than to spread the word to those
 who may need a videographer in the near future. 
I have enough copies for my family, but I need a copy
 for his parents who dont fly airplanes s
o they couldnt come, and there are family members 
who where on the "did not show list" but 
want to see it.  How much for additional copies?

Thanks again!!!!!!!

Hi Celeste,

Just wanted to let you know how much I love
 the DVDs and CD. I gave Cynthia  their copies
 and I kept my copy.
You always do great work! Thanks!!

SVS

Oh Celeste,

You did a great job on the DVDs.
 I must have watched them 10 times!
  It is almost 4 a.m. and I am just
shutting them off and I started at 6 p.m.
My brother, Bill, came by after the club
 and we watched it together with his girlfriend, .

 I watched it with my sister Cheryl.

We really like it, and know everyone
will want a copy.  I love the way you
added in the pictures, and the music
was perfect. Thank you so much!

My brother and sister wanted their
DVDs now, so I gave them 2 copies from my 5.  

I guess I should book you  now for the
 dinner party. 
It will be Friday, May 13th, 2007

Thanks again,

 Celeste, the pictures have gone over BIG with the family
 and friends.  My email mailbox has been overloaded
with gratitude.  Thanks for taking the time to upload them
 to www.shutterfly.com, a great site. 
I ordered some pictures from them for the folks who
don't have computers, and the prices were not bad. 
They gave me 20 pictures free.

 Also getting requests for the video. 
I sent a reply letting them know that they have to
pay for the video, and sent your email address.

Dear Celeste:

  Just a few words to thank you, most sincerely,
for your beautiful work. 

 When we first had the idea of doing the
 "Then & Now" video for our fiftieth

high school reunion we had no idea how
it would turn out.  It was just an idea

and it needed a lot of work to put it together.
 But then, we told you that we'd

only have a few days to shoot the video
 and get it ready for presentation.  So,

we not only got to shoot on location in
Dorchester and Roxbury, we got into

the High School and did very personal shots. 
The best part is that you did it

ALL in just one day.   The big reward
was that all of our fellow classmates

just loved the video and many of them
wanted to buy copies.

  But beyond all of that, the presentation
you did for the "In Memoriam"  brought

tears to the eyes of many of the guys and gals.  
It was very obvious that their

thoughts were of the past and for the future.

You brought all of my ideas to fruition and
the final results were just perfect.  

What more could any client want?

Thanks a million.

Hi Celeste, I am writing to let you know how much
 i love the work you did.  I can't stop watching the DVD. 
I wanted to know the picture you put on the front
of the DVD, is there anyway to get a copy and
how much would it be, we like that picture. 
The photographer lost some rolls in the picture room
 so it was hard to choose the picture for our big one. 
If  you could let me know if there is a way to make
 a picture of it.  I am dying to refer you to someone,
keep up the good work.  I hope all is well. 
Enjoy the summer!

Very nice quality, and a great memory. 
Thank you.

Hey Celeste!  We got our videos on Friday! 
What fun to watch it over again!!  We can't wait
 for the edited version!  One thing, will any music
 be cut in the edited version?  I really hope not,
if possible...it's my favorite part
(aside from marrying Dave, of course!)! 
And I know most of the family will watch it over
and over just to hear Cara singing!  :)

It has been so much fun to watch the video! 
And especially the reception...I don't think people
noticed the camera on the dance floor the whole time!!  :)

Thanks, Celeste!  You are great!

So, I have a neat little story to tell you. 
A coworker had recently mentioned that he
had some wedding pictures on the computer
that he could email us, so us ladies took a look at it. 
And as the slides are cycling through, I thought,
this looks just like what Celeste had said
she could do, how neat.  And then, sure enough,
at the end your credits came up.  I had no idea he
 had hired you for his wedding and yet I still
 managed to find you :)  His name is Vinny (Vincent) B.
- I think he was married in the last yr or 2. 
And he said he was very pleased and would
recommend you to anyone.
I thought you would like to hear that :)

Talk soon.

No problem Celeste.

Please stay in touch with me

I think that you have a GREAT business and
my hope is that you will continue to prosper in ALL ways!

Hi Celeste,

Thank you so much for your time at the wedding.
 I was very pleased with your service. It seems like y
ou got a lot of footage, yet didn't interfere with any
of the special events that day.

I'm looking forward to the finished product.

Thanks! Mira

Hi Celeste-

I bid and bid and bid on that beautiful picture of yours
 and the price just went to high for me!

I believe the final total was $75!  Pretty impressive!

But since I am so heartbroken over losing, I wanted to
write to you and ask if you sell your pictures all the
time or if this was a one time thing.

I know you mentioned to me that that particular picture
 was a business card of yours, I was
keeping my fingers crossed that maybe you
do sell your photos.

Please let me know when you get a moment.

I would love to know how much you offer that
picture for, it was very beautiful!

Thanks and have a good day!

Erin

Dear Celeste, Thanks for EVERYTHING

asks me to send your cards to
her, because she can remember Boston and the
surrounding areas from them.  I
also write to a lot of people (can you believe I
utilize snail mail for that
purpose).  I like to send my friends pictures of
Boston, and I have received
such compliments on your cards.  (I tell them all
to check the back for your
address), one girlfriend framed a picture of an
ivy plant flowing down a
North End apartment from your photos, she loved
it so much.  Those are the
two areas I buy the most of, and Tricia (my
daughter's father) got his
birthday and Christmas Card from your selection,
he is an avid outdoors man.
The shots of the lighthouse, and one of a
sailboat with the sun reflecting
off the water was simply breathtaking.  Ansel
Adams, LOOK OUT!  Great work,
Celeste.  Hats off to you!  (and you should raise
the price because they're

I just sent one as a thank you

WOW!!!!!!!!!! I just wanted to write and let you know
that your pictures
are really excellent. I have 6 so far and it was rough
 trying to choose
them out of all the awesome selection you have.
I have one in my office and
everyone that has been here has commented on
how well it brightens up the
place. I also used your greeting cards to get in
touch with out of town
friends and the response has been overwhelming.
One I sent as far as San
Francisco and she loved it-even though she didn't
like Boston she said that
the card made Boston look like a great place!
Another friend commented that
she had never seen butterflies caught on film the
way they were on the
card-so full of color, energy and life.

I just wanted to say thank you-I am so glad I have
 a reliable place to get
cards/prints from! Also, so inexpensive as well!
These present a great
option since they are actual pictures with the
ability to be blown up as
full size prints. You can be sure I will be back
for more VERY soon!

Thanks again, You RULE!!!!!!!!

Celeste - I just looked at your web site and
was going to send you 
another email, when I received this message
from you -- 

I love the swan boats 2000 and the Trinity
Church photos  (it's one of my Christmas tree
ornaments as is the State House,

which reminds me - a photo of the
Boston Common to add to my photo

collage would be great -perhaps the frog pond
or the memorial to the 54th

(I think) Massachusetts Regiment commanded by
Robert Gould Shaw during the

Civil War) and all the other Boston ones -- all of them actually.

 If you ever do photos of Scotland definitely let me know --

 my favorite place outside of the United 
States.  

Karen

Celeste,

Checked out the website and it looks good! 
Are you able to capture

 fashion shots on the street?  I would love
to do a segment called off 

the streets and spotlight what the sisters
are wearing in Boston.  

The flava is different yet the same. 
Give me your thoughts.

Dear Celeste -

I am so pleased with the collage - you included
some of my favorites - 

and the photos give a real "feel" for the city
beyond the usual landmarks.

and expressed a desire to

someday in  the not too distant future. 

We were both impressed with the professional 
demeanor exhibited by all 

individuals we came in contact with at the golf
course and hope that 

someday we can do the same for you should you
see  your way to Houston. 

 If you have any pictures, video, or printed
media of Maggie and would care

 to share it with us please feel free to send
them to this email address or 

 to Maggie's home address.

Thank you,

You did a great job -- especially under difficult
circumstances.
