I'm Laurie, a California mom of four busy kids who loves photography! My background is in History and Art History and I've always been a lover of art, but never considered myself an artist, that is until I found my medium. I enjoy lots of different types of photography but my true love is portraiture. I prefer shooting with natural light and love to experiment with different effects to achieve a variety of moods and bring out the beauty in the person I'm photographing. I'm a Canon Nikon girl :)

    "Laurie is an extremely fun chick and a super cool mommy. I remember when we "first started" on this journey, I struggled even showing my photos because ,compared to hers and a lot of other people, mine were crap! Her photos were amazing back then and I feel really lucky that I have been able to watch her grow into the fabulous photographer she is today! She is an inspiration to us all!"

    "My testimonial for Laurie has been a long time coming. She is one of the first consistent, great photographers that I got to know on flickr. Her kindness and professionalism is such a sweet bonus to her fabulous work. She uses light like Monet used paint. Laurie composes portraits beautifully and consistently and has a knack for capturing people at their best. I learn so much from her and she is always so willing to answer questions and help. Thank you Laurie! You are always a beautiful inspiration to me and others!"

    "The first time I saw Laurie's stream I was hooked. Any photographer that can capture 4 kids in a photo is fabulous, but she not only captures great expressions she nails focus, exposure and color all in the same time! She is always willing to share what she knows and never has a negative thing to say. So if you haven't yet looked through her stream do so and once you do you will wonder what took you so long!"

    "I dont know where to start with Laurie-- she's an amazing photographer and takes gorgeous pictures but she is more then that-- she's a beautiful person, a wonderful friend, and a mom that I can only hope to be like one day. I have the pleasure to know her in person, she is MY family photographer and i owe her dearly for showing me how to get sharp pictures with my 50mm. I owe her so much and I can only hope she knows how lucky I feel to have her in my life. ♥"

    "Laurie has been an inspiration to me. Her images are so stunning, but more importantly, well executed. Her lighting is phenomenal and I frequently check out her stream for new ideas. Most of all, though, I love the fact that Laurie is willing to share her knowledge with those just starting out. You rock, Laurie!"
