She brings such joy and passion to her work. We can't
wait until next year so we can do this all again!!!! What an experience
to have everyone leaving so elated with their pet portraits. People
are already asking if they can sign up for next year!!! Thank you Lori,

"To know Lori, is to know that she has the utmost
respect for all creatures great and small. This respect is
evident during her portrait sessions with the furry four-footed stars.
Our dog Harley, a German wire-haired pointer/shepherd mix, saw in Lori,
a kind, friendly soul. Harley trustingly and open-heartedly
showed her his soul while peering through his beautiful blonde bangs
into her lens. Our portraits of Harley's character and spirit
are works of love that will live forever in our home."

"I recently had the opportunity to watch Lori in action
and was awe-struck at seeing how much joy she gets out of what
she does. It's obvious that she sincerely loves animals and
photography and that comes through in the images she captures. You can
feel the passion and intensity she brings to each
session. Murphy absolutely loved Lori and he can't wait until he gets
another chance to mug for her again."

photographer we’ve ever seen! She has the most amazing eye for

every pet. We feel extremely lucky to show her work in our store, feature
her images on our website, and host her fantastic talents during our
pet portrait days.

"You truly captured Latimer's essence. Your portrait
of him shows how radiant and happy he is. Your portrait
makes me feel that he's right there in front of me! Every time I look
at it I feel like he's ready to jump out to give me hugs and kisses.
My parents summed it up best: it's as if the picture's alive
-- that it's not really a picture after all, it's truly him, because
his portrait is just so vivid, so life-like, almost 3-D. I'm very grateful
that you took as many shots as you did to get THE perfect shot."
Leni Doyle, Latimer’s mom |
"The pet photos of my dear fuzzy babies are so
very heartwarming. Lori has captured the essence of unconditional
love in their eyes, the clear and true windows into my heart."
Deborah Geyer, Jack and Winnie’s mom |

"A click of a button, the flash of light, and
Lori not only steals
your soul, but also returns it in its purest, loveliest
form."
