I'm officially Team Lori!!!! Like legit...whatever it is that Lori is breathing into I'm trying to be apart of it. Because I've lived long enough to witness that when you experience something memorable and invaluable it ALWAYS STARTS AT THE HEAD. And each part of this experience was curated in excellence and infused with love and grace! My family is overwhelmingly grateful that our friend, Amrita (apart of the staff), shared us with y'all and you chose us to enjoy your studio/family. As a Mom who feels like I'm endlessly herding kittens I felt so at ease by Monica

The level of professionalism, the courteousness of the staff, the outcome of the photo shoot, the entire experience was 5-spanking-star perfect! Without any hesitation, we would come back for another shoot and recommend Lori Dorman to anyone we know. Thanks again for a wonderful and memorable experience.

This is my first time shooting with Lori Dorman's production and I shot with Jasmine, we traveled from Las Vegas just so we can get these special maternity photos, when I tell you I had THE BEST shoot and treatment is not enough. Pictures and sets are so beautiful! I recommend beyond 5 stars for everything! It was a day I'll NEVER forget! I'm beyond happy!

I highly recommend Loridorman group for maternity photo shoot. I had a pleasure of working with Jaz and Maria. They were both very passionate about what they do and paid attention to every detail. Jaz went above and beyond to make sure she captures great photos of me and my husband. We really enjoyed our session and love the photos. Hilda and Becky were so helpful with scheduling the session and follow up to make sure we get the results we were looking for. Overall a great group to work with, couldn't be happier.

Jazz & Be killed it! They made all our fashion couture dreams come true. From the vibe, to the liveliness, to the dresses.....It was allll a dream! Every second. My wife and I didnt feel out of place or uncomfortable for one second and for a lgbtq+ couple having a baby this was a dream! They were flexible and easy to work with from start to finish. If you want the best photographer...this is it. Do it. Its worth it! Every penny
