A full day of storytelling — the whispered first look, the hands-on-cheeks laughter, the last sparkler sent into the dark.

About
Hi, I'm Lori.
"My goal is a joyful session and photographs you still adore a decade from now. Bonus points if your cheeks hurt from laughing by the end of it."
I've been photographing love stories and milestone moments across Southern California for years. I work best with clients who are a little obsessed with the details, not afraid to be themselves, and ready to genuinely enjoy the day. If that sounds like you — hi, we should talk.

What I photograph
Three ways to work together
Every session is tailored — but most of what I do fits into one of these three. Pricing and packages are shared privately after we chat.
02 Engagements
Engagements
A relaxed afternoon, a beach or a backyard, and a few hours to fall in love with being in front of the camera together.
03 Portraits
Portraits
Families, seniors, branding — whatever the milestone, the goal is the same: images that still feel like you in ten years.
