Lori Marie Photography

Welcome to our portrait photography studio, situated just outside of the charming town of Mankato, Minnesota. I am Lori, a Christian, wife, mother of three boys, and a passionate photographer. When I am not capturing moments through the lens, you can find me camping, quilting, or reminiscing about my time at my Grandma's farm.

My photography journey began with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree, specializing in Photography and Ceramics, from Mankato State University. Since then, I have dedicated myself to honing my craft and expanding my expertise in pet photography and business headshots. My commitment to the art of photography is evident in my designations as a Certified Professional Photographer, Master Photographer, and a proud member of Professional Photographers of America.

Services

As a portrait photographer, I offer a variety of services tailored to meet your unique needs and preferences. My goal is to collaborate with you to craft images that not only meet but exceed your expectations. I am passionate about creating printed portraits that will become cherished pieces of art in your home.

• *Pet Portraits*: These sessions are designed to capture the essence and personality of your beloved pets. I offer two options: a Studio Session priced at $150 and an In-Home Session at $300. Both packages include a consultation, up to a 60-minute session, and images ready for viewing within 7-10 business days. There is no minimum order, and clients typically spend between $500 and $1200 on products and files.

• *Business Headshots*: Making a great first impression is crucial in today's professional world, and high-quality headshots are an essential part of that process. I offer three tiers of business headshot sessions: Quick Take, Standard Portrait, and Branding Session. Each package includes varying durations, outfit and background options, and the opportunity to purchase additional print and web use files. Quotes for Business and Staff portraits on location are available upon request.

The Process

To ensure a seamless and enjoyable experience, I have established a straightforward process for my clients:

1. *Consultation*: Our journey begins with a design consultation, either in person at my studio or over the phone. During this meeting, we discuss clothing options and your vision for the final portraits.

2. *Photoshoot*: Armed with our consultation insights, we proceed to the photography session, either in the studio or on location.

3. *Order Appointment*: Approximately 7-10 business days after the session, you are invited to an in-person order appointment at my studio. During this appointment, you will have the opportunity to view and order your images. Ordering appointments typically last about an hour.

I am thrilled to have the opportunity to create beautiful, timeless portraits for you. Please do not hesitate to contact me to plan your session or to learn more about my services.
