though I originally hail from Denver, Colorado. I picked up my first disposable camera when I was 10 and from there, it grew into a love for photography—especially when I got into film photography in high school as a sophomore. I spent hours in the darkroom, developing photos with a film camera and enlarger, and it all clicked for me. I continued my love through college and as soon as I started having my own kids, I switched to human connections---the most beautiful part of life.
Hey there!!!
I’m Lora, a photographer based in the Kansas City area,
Since 2008, I’ve been capturing heartfelt moments professionally, specializing in family and newborn photography. Growing up in a family of 14 kids, I get the importance of capturing real, meaningful moments. I’m all about creating natural, timeless images that feel true to you. While I'm an introvert at heart, photography brings out my extroverted side. At sessions, I'm loud, playful and engaging. It is definitely my happy place.
My goal is to create timeless images that exhibit true to life colors, feel authentic and full of life.
If you’re looking to freeze a few of those special moments, I’d love to help make it happen!
what our photoshoots are like...
For the morning? I've sadly tamed my coffee problem, but if you would have asked me a year ago I would have told you 3 cups of coffee. Now it's just one, preferably with a little toxic coffee mate. For the night? Whiskey, please.
My drink of choice is...
Adam Sandler. Guys, I'm the last person you should be taking any form of style advice from. Though...I'm making it a goal in 2025 to figure this one out and find a style and stick w/ it.
My style icon is...
Crawling into bed every night. Is it 2am or 10pm? No idea. One thing I do know though, bed rotting would win me an olympic gold. Added bonus if there are freshly washed sheets and 100 pillows for me to bury myself in.
The best part of my day is...
