Default Cement that resembles stones

Has anyone found a contractor who can lay cement and, while it is wet, sprinkle it with different colors, then place large "stamp pads" (that they stand on while laying the next one), and the final product looks like stones? I don't know the name of the technique.

Stamped concrete, I think. There are many driveways in TV with this technique.

My personal preference is stamped concrete that resembles boulders. Does anyone know what the cost factor is?

I've seen this "stampless stone" put in by Francisco Lopez, and he does fabulous work! If he's still in the area and in business, the last phone number I have for him is 352-484-8181.
