doing








































my girls


rejoicing: my kids coming home. you know whats fun? playing tourist in your own town!  (hoping to get some photos of my boys soon too, i love the group photo, but it's oh so hard to round up five grown kids).

practicing:  taking head shots. my oldest daughter was my gracious model. this is tricky business, i hope i can do it.

knitting: a little project coming along slowly.

celebrating: a photo of mine made it in here, the twenty eleven edition. (yipee!)

i hope your do-ing lots of meaningful to you things too.

  3. Beautiful girls, Lori!! And they seem so happy to be there together (with you!). I LOVE reunions! Be sure to wrangle them up for a group photo (I bribe mine with food). :) They are like trying to herd cats, these big kids. Enjoy!!! Off to admire your pic now. xox Pam

  4. Lori, I have seen your photographs jump in excellence every week since I've been following you.
    This week to see portraits is another amazing progression.
    Love them! All the photos have a certain Lori look to them. And there's that particular light too.
    A joyful light.
