Families

My clients love to capture more than perfect smiles for a holiday card. I love a traditional photo with real smiles and laughter, but I also love to capture personalities and relationships. I want you to have photographs to look back on that show you and your kiddos having fun, snuggling, and enjoying our beautiful community. I feel quite strongly that family photos should be a fun and easy experience. I will share my expert advice on the best Ann Arbor locations, timing, and clothing tips.  All you have to do is show up, and I will take care of the rest.

Please swipe through the gallery, check out the featured sessions, see what my clients have to say; and if you like what you see, contact me. I’d love to help capture this special time for your family.

Sarah Lang
Lori was absolutely stellar to work with! We did a family/1 year milestone session with her and it was great from start to finish. From being flexible enough to reschedule 3 times because of weather, to capturing beautiful photos of our family in a timely manner (considering it was November and we had a 1 year old), to personally meeting with us once our photos were ready and helping us design a wall display. Lori is top notch and takes wonderful photographs that my family will cherish forever! I definitely plan on having Lori capture photos of our newborn this spring. She is highly recommended!"

Kelly Vatuour
Lori did a wonderful job taking photos of my three children.  She knew just how to get smiles out of them and captured great pictures of my very active 1 year old.  She really knew how to keep the children engaged and got some great natural looking pictures while allowing the kids to have a relaxing and fun time.  The photos are beautiful and I will definitely be giving Lori a call when it's time for some new ones.

Lori is an outstanding photographer. Her talents capture the most wonderful moments and really express the joy and love in our family. The kids really warm to her fun and energetic personality and she has a knack for engaging them in the session. We have really enjoyed both our sessions with her and never fail to recommend her to our friends and family. Thank you Lori for all you do!

Diana Paez-Cook
I am so glad we picked Lori to do a family photo session for us! We were very impressed with the level of service she provides, with carefully thought-out and timely information and interaction, and high quality photography. Working with Lori was delightful. She recommended a place for the shoot, was responsive and supportive throughout the process, and paid extreme attention to all the important details. I also appreciated how she went the extra mile to help us think through and re-design our gallery wall, sending layouts and providing recommendations. We love the final products and enjoyed the timely completion, beautiful packaging and the care she put into making sure that we were happy with the results. I highly recommend Lori Photography!

Ana Cristina Perez
Lori was fantastic with my three year old daughter who tends to be rather shy. My little one warmed up to Lori immediately and to the day she keeps asking about the 'photograph girl'. I was positively impressed with how non-invasive Lori's approach is and how good she is with children. I would highly recommend her to any family with young kids who want to capture beautiful moments.  The photos were lovely and the session was super fun!  Thanks Lori!

Kelley Kidwell
We really enjoyed working with Lori from the very beginning with prompt, informative emails, to the end, the gorgeous photo gallery ready within 2 weeks. Lori helped us pick a beautiful fall location and put the 3 of us at ease throughout the shoot. We had so much fun and could not believe just how many photos turned out so wonderfully. We are so excited to have these beautiful memories to look back on and will be calling on Lori's expertise as our little one grows up! Beyond that, Lori was even an angel emailing with mom who wanted to buy albums and pictures!

1.First, Let's Chat

You've swiped through the gallery, scrolled through the featured sessions, and you are ready to talk details. Send me an email. I am happy to answer your questions. And if you are ready, let's get a date on the calendar. I will recommend the location and time and send you an email with tips on what to wear. I promise to make the process simple and fun.

2. The Session

Now it's time for that fun family experience that I will capture with my camera. I always come with a plan, but I tend to follow the kiddos lead. We want smiles, so let's keep it fun and embrace movement. I can give you as much or as little direction as you need. I do "light posing" in that I will set up the shot to make sure we are utilizing the best light and that everyone looks good. I like to capture a mix of traditional portraits and artful candids.

3.The Ordering Appointment-the best part!

We will schedule an ordering and design appointment. I will help you get the most out of your gallery by sharing expert advice about printing, framing and designing a wall display or album. We will make sure those images don't live and die on your hard drive.

4. Delivery Day!

Okay, maybe this is the best part: snail mail. Your prints, frames, albums, and/or USB will arrive within 3-4 weeks of your ordering appointment and now you get to enjoy your photos everyday.

FAQ
1. Where are you located?
My office is centrally located in the 455 building on E. Eisenhower Pkwy in Ann Arbor.
2. Where do sessions take place?
Family sessions take place outdoors in the Ann Arbor area. I have several ideas for locations. You can choose between something urban, architectural, or a park setting.
3. When do sessions take place?
I prefer to schedule outdoor sessions within 1-2 hours of sunset when the light is best. Much of what you see in my portfolio was shot during this time and contributes heavily to my style of photography. With that being said, I know my little ones turned into very unhappy pumpkins by 6:30 p.m. when they were babies. If that is the case with your little ones, we will work together to find a location with awesome light, during your child's happy time.
4. What should we wear?
No worries. I am here to help. I truly enjoy every step of the process. I have gone to clients’ homes and helped them shop in their own closet, as well as collaborate on shared pinterest boards. Once you book, I will send you an email with tips on what to wear, a pinterest board for inspiration, and even a link to my online styling/shopping page.
5. Do you offer mini-sessions?
I want to create an experience and memories for your family to treasure in years to come. I do not want to rush this experience. I want to take my time if your child is shy. I want to capture authentic moments and take as much time as we need to do this. I do not want to check my watch or worry about the next client waiting in the wings. You will have my undivided attention, and we will get the images you want without the pressure of "time's up." I do offer a special rate to clients who book more than 1 session within 12 months. So if you have a newborn and want to capture your baby at 6 months when he/she is sitting up and smiling, we can do that. Or if you book a senior session and decide you want to add on a family session, I will offer you a special rate for the second session.
6. Do you sell digital files?
Yes, I do. Please inquire for a full price list
7. Can I keep my images private?
Absolutely. I love to share client sessions on my blog, portfolio, and social media. It helps convey my style to potential clients, but also gives clients a way to share images with family and friends. However, not all of the families that I work with want to have their family photographs shared online. I completely respect your privacy. Just let me know that you want to keep them private during your phone consultation, your session, or during your ordering appointment.
8. How many photos are in a session gallery to choose from?
I will choose and edit 30-40 images from your session for you to view during
the latest & greatest
