You can stop looking... You've found your photographer!
We were lucky enough to find Lora + Ted from an online search while looking for a newborn photographer almost 5.5 years ago and wow, did we hit the jackpot. From studio sessions, to fresh-48s, to beautiful mountain locations, Lora does it all and does it all impeccably. Her creative eye is undeniable, and her personality has a way of putting everyone at ease (yes, even those wild toddlers!). My whole family has grown to love Lora and we will be forever grateful to her for capturing some of the most amazing moments on camera.

There is no one who can match Lora’s artistic eye and ability to connect to my kid during photos. She’s been taking my daughters pics since she was <1yo and now, at 14yo - every single set is better than the last! I am constantly amazed by her work! Lora’s clients are raving fans, and this is why. Other photographers do nice work, but Lora’s pics connect with your soul. She is absolutely unmatched in the field. Five stars are not enough!

Cannot say enough good things about our experience with Lora doing a newborn photography shoot. She went so far above and beyond to get the exact pictures I wanted and I got so so so so many that I am obsessed with. Both of my older daughters (4yo & 2yo) ask me on an at least weekly basis when Lora can come back again!

Lora is INCREDIBLY talented. She captures our family so well. The pictures of our kids feel so "them" and that is so important to us. She is so easy to be around and we felt so comfortable with her from the jump. HIGHLY recommend!!!!

I honestly don’t even know where to begin. Lora has taken our photos for years! Every single time they come out amazing! She makes the boys smile when they are crabby, and makes us all laugh until our bellies hurt. She always brings out our true family! Lora has an incredible gift of being able to see what no one else can. Her photos are priceless. You can’t go back in time and see your kids get younger - but she can capture all of this and it truly is a treasure. We lost my dad 10 years ago and all I have left are those family photos. From her location choices, to her poses, her lighting and her editing- it’s ALL phenomenal!!
Goodness I could honestly go on and on. I’m obsessed with all of her images that she post because she has such an incredible eye❤️

Lora was absolutely amazing! Scheduling online was super easy, and after the weather ending up being questionable for our date, she offered alternatives and was extremely flexible. She was so great with my busy toddler boys and made family photos a breeze. We received our gallery back so fast, even during a crazy busy time of year. Her photos are stunning and captured such beautiful moments of our family that we will truly treasure forever. I cannot say enough good things about Lora; go book her now!

We could not recommend Lora + Ted more! We used them for both our maternity photos and our newborn photos and had a fantastic experience both times. I knew I loved Lora's photography style before we booked her, but now I can easily confirm she is also an awesome person. She is extremely considerate and provided great guidance on poses that made us feel comfortable and look natural. And Lora was so sweet with our newborn daughter, ensuring she stayed warm and comfortable throughout the session. I also appreciate Lora's willingness to go above and beyond for her clients. When we asked for a recommendation for an "etherial" location for our maternity shoot she provided multiple great ideas, including one that was new to her. When we went with that suggestion, Lora went out a day early to make sure she understood the lighting, etc. and it showed! The vibes were exactly what we wanted and the final galleries she provided us were better than we could have imagined. We can't wait to use Lora + Ted again!

I’ve worked with Lora for both my maternity shoot and my newborn shoot and it’s just been the best experience I’ve ever had with a photographer. First and foremost, the photos are stunning. Lora is so sweet and makes you feel so comfortable in front of the camera. We already have another session booked with her for the holidays and I am so happy I found Lora because she will be stuck taking my family photos for life! These photos are my prized possessions thanks to her
