We couldn't be more thankful for the incredible work Lory did for us on our wedding day. Every single photo is absolutely gorgeous—above and beyond any expectations we might've had. We're both completely obsessed! She's a through and through professional with an impeccable eye—an artist—capturing us in such a way that genuinely feels so true to form. And she made us feel so comfortable (which says a lot for two people who feel uncomfortable in every photo ever—and in life generally). She made our day feel so incredibly special and we can't wait to share her gorgeous work with everyone we love!

I am really happy that I found Lory! She is very flexible and a professional photographer. Even we asked in last minutes like the day before our elopement day, she responded us immediately and hear me out what kind of photos I am wishing for. I thought she is very considerate person. She has a good taste with her creative ideas in photograph as well. I could relax during the ceremony because she is very easy to work with and I could feel she is celebrating us. On top of that, she helped to sign our marriage lisence as a witness! When I see her edited photos, I am so grateful for the day that Lori helped to make the wonderful moments in many ways. She caught our happy moments perfectly and thoes photos are showing how happy we were at the moment. I highly recommend to choose Lori! You wouldn't regret! We just so happy for having her in our wedding day.I couldn't be happier! Thank you so much Lori :)

Lory is fantastic and I am so happy we booked her for our wedding! Prior to the wedding date, I sent her a ton of bride & groom photos I wanted to recreate because this would be our first professional shoot and we did not know what to expect. Lory arrived early at my bridal suite and captured some sweet “getting ready” moments. At the ceremony she captured us in almost every angle you can think of. Right after she guided us through recreating the poses from the inspiration photos. Lory made us feel so comfortable while candidly capturing us right after our “I do” and directing us in poses we were unsure of. Her energy is calming and it helped us feel at ease while taking our photos. She was extremely patient and kind with our guests who are very photo-friendly and requested many, many photos. We waited only a couple of weeks to receive our edited photos and we are in love! It’s impossible to pick a favorite! Our guests are amazed at all the in-the-moment shots Lory captured! We could not have asked for a better experience on such a special day in our lives!! Completely recommended and we will definitely book again!

Lory was our photographer for our City Hall wedding AND our witness! Lory was amazing and everything we could have hoped for. She was extremely responsive via email and text and even arrived to the Courthouse before we did. Lory was a joy to be around and captured so many wonderful shots of our special day. We would absolutely hire Lory again.. and most likely will in a couple of months when our first child is born.
