As I prepare to take a break for the rest of this year, I thought I’d give you a little glimpse of our Christmas!! I’ll be back just after the first of the year with a wonderful New Year’s Eve wedding to share!!

Have a blessed, and very Merry Christmas!!!

I love these guys!

Easter was fun. The weather was beautiful. My kids are growing up way too fast! My heart is full.

Welcome to the new home of Lori Hedrick Photography!!!

So, it’s my birthday today and i am typing this blog entry while sitting in my new .. wait for it …

STUDIO!!!!

I really can’t believe I’m here! Since the official start of my business, almost 4 years ago, I have hoped and dreamed that one day I would move out of the tiny cramped corner in my basement into something I could call my own. Time has crawled and time has flown and now I find myself in a brand new place and ready to grow even more! This move is important on so many levels, personal and business. For my family, it means that when I am home, I’m really home. Not just there but off in the corner on the computer. It’s a way for me to separate business and life. The line between laundry and photos, phone calls and dinner, packages and clutter had become way too blurry! For business, this means that I now have a place to meet and chat. A place to walk you through your photos and help you choose the best ones. A place to show samples and get your creative juices flowing with ideas for decorating your home with beautiful photos! A place to meet with brides and grooms without the noise and chaos of the local coffee shop (but with the coffee of course!). I’m so very excited for this new adventure and can’t wait to see where it takes me! If you’ve been following my FaceBook page, you’ll know that I’ve been dropping hints for the past few days! So keep scrolling and see if you recognize any photos from the sneak peeks!

There’s still a lot to be done. Pictures need to be hung, a few pieces of furniture are on the way, and I searching for the perfect curtains. But for having just moved in on Tuesday, I’m thrilled with everything!!!

Welcome!

I’ll share more photos as things come together and I’ll even do a photo tour so you’ll know exactly how to find me! Thanks for all the love and support of my family and friends!

My recent obsession

Jeryl gave me the soundtrack for Christmas and the kids and I are in love! So if you see me singing in the pick-up line at school, I’m probably listening to it. We hope to go see it soon and I’m just bouncing off the walls waiting!

Lori is a wedding and lifestyle photographer serving Roanoke, Salem, Lynchburg and Blacksburg VA and surrounding areas.

Snow days make me happy ;)

Yes, I know it’s the end of January, and I’m just now posting about the new year. Yes, I know I haven’t posted anything in a long time. Yes, I know you have been waiting impatiently Well, your wait is over!

But before we move into the new year, I want to show you guys a few of my favorites from this past year. It was amazing! I have the best clients, friends, and family! Thanks for all the support!

Long time..no blog!

But for now, a post full of images from my recent trip to Colorado! This one’s for you Amy!

I found a neat app for my IPhone called ShakeIt! It imitates an old Polaroid camera. I love it! Here’s a few of the pictures I took using it.

I will be back to regular blogging soon, with a few announcements! Stay tuned!

Summer!

I’m ready! Kids are out of school, the weather is wonderful, and there are no schedules to keep!!! We have very few plans for the summer and want to keep it that way. I want this summer to be one of lazy days, lots of books, playing in the sprinkler, late nights catching fireflies, and general relaxation! How about you? Do you have any plans? What your favorite childhood memory of summer?

Here’s a shot of one of the first signs of summer in our house! Strawberries!

On the photo front, be on the lookout for an email announcing summer photo specials as well as the launch of my new website! Enjoy your summer!

So True!

IF YOU GIVE A MOM A MUFFIN
Author unknown

If you give a mom a muffin,
She’ll want a cup of coffee to go with it.
She’ll pour herself some.
Her three-year-old will spill the coffee.
She’ll wipe it up.
Wiping the floor, she’ll find dirty socks.
She’ll remember she has to do laundry.
When she puts the laundry in the washer,
She’ll trip over boots and bump into the freezer.
Bumping into the freezer will remind her she has to plan for supper.
She will get out a pound of hamburger.
She’ll look for her cookbook (“101 Things To Do With a Pound of Hamburger”).
The cookbook is sitting under a pile of mail.
She will see the phone bill, which is due tomorrow.
She will look for her checkbook.
The checkbook is in her purse that is being dumped out by her two-year-old.
She’ll smell something funny.
She’ll change the two year old’s diaper.
While she is changing the diaper, the phone will ring.
Her five-year-old will answer and hang up.
She’ll remember she wants to phone a friend for coffee.
Thinking of coffee will remind her that she was going to have a cup.
And chances are…
If she ever gets to have a cup of coffee,
Her kids will have eaten the muffin that would have gone with it.

I loved this!

And, if your Monday has been anything like mine, you could use a little cheering up! So here’s a rainbow!

Moving at the speed of light

That’s what life seems to be doing these days! Way too fast! I thought I would catch you up on our spring so far. We celebrated Passover and loved it. It’s a tradition for our family even though we are not Jewish! We love teaching our kids where some of our religious traditions come from.

Easter was, for once, a gorgeous day! I don’t know that I remember a beautiful, spring-like Easter Sunday for a long time! I loved the outfits I found for the kids this year. They make the pictures so colorful!

My beautiful girls all dressed up and ready to go!

Grandad did a good job with our family photo! Sometime I’ll show all the outtakes!

Lastly, we hit up the Kite Festival in Salem for a fun Saturday!

I hope your spring is off to a wonderful start! I’m a little behind on posting pictures but I’ll try to get caught up soon!

Blessings, Lori
