A DREAM CLIENT - Joanne Larson
Vicki changed my life for the better. I have graduated from my cell phone.
I took a beginners class with Stanwycks and I was taking much better pictures after my first session. If your camera is confusing you will understand it in no time. Awesome! sometimes you need a little help and I was smart enough to know I did...
Neal Nadler - President Air Reldan
I can't say enough good things about Vicki she is the best!
"Vicki Stanwycks has been using Air Reldan, Inc. for aerial photography for over 20 years. Her demanding criteria of the pilots performance over a photo site is paramount to getting the right images; which is evident when you see the photographic accomplishments created over the years. It is always a pleasure working with her, and her high standards and creativity make her a unique professional photographer"
My DREAM CLIENTs
Just hire Vicki. Don't even think about it.
"After having a Professional Relationship with Vicki over the years She has always been right there with the flow - shooting ships, aerial, and operations; then laborers one day and CEO's the next... Always delivering professional results."
-Lee Alexander
"Vicki always has the knack for not only getting the right shot, but executing the shot in a way that is unobtrusive to the subjects - Vicki has been capturing the magic and the memories of my events for quite a number of years,"
-David Schulingkamp
