There’s the beauty you planned for—and then there’s everything that happens around it. The people you love. The exchanges no one else notices. The moments that could never have been planned at all.

Those are the photographs I’m always looking for

Hi, I’m Lori

BEING SEEN SHOULD FEEL LIKE BEING KNOWN

I’m not interested in asking you to become something for my camera.

I’d rather get to know who you already are—the way you move together, what makes you laugh, who you instinctively reach for. I’ll offer direction when you need it, and leave room for the moments that don’t need anything from me at all.

Because for me, photography has always begun with paying attention.
