To add to that, I once had a client (wedding photography) that communicated almost exclusively by text message. Aside from his initial inquiry which was done by phone (voice message actually), literally everything was done by text. We set up a couple of meetings, arranged payment, confirmed a few last minute details, etc. all by text. Not how I typically roll, but he seemed really comfortable with it, so I was happy to make it as painless as possible. I didn't actually hear his voice until we met in person, and the next time was on the wedding day.

The funny thing is, you'd expect that he'd be some early-twenty-something guy who lives his life with his head in his cell phone. In actual fact, however, he was easily in his forties and was one of my oldest wedding clients.
