Laura Worley Photography Blog bio picture

Welcome

Hmmm...how did I get into photography? I'd love to share some wonderful story about how it has been a passion of mine since childhood...but alas that would not be true! I sort of stumbled into this passion. It all started with the simple process of wanting to record my children's lives. The more pictures I took, the more excited I got about the learning. All of sudden, I was chasing my kids around begging for the next image. I'm now officially obessessed, ask my family! I am looking at everything through the lens, even though a camera may not be in front of my face! "Would that be a cool location?", "Ohhh...what a great background", "Ahhh...that would make a cool pic!" And the passion and learning keeps growing. Now, I find myself branching out into the design side and having a ton of fun creating, too!

Whether it's a sporting event or a portrait session, I'm having fun meeting new people! I enjoy working with my great clients and their children; creating images that will help hold memories and moments in time close to their hearts.

Enjoy!

Fall fun…

October 11, 2011 – 5:43 pm

What a great way to spend part of a beautiful fall weekend, working with a fun family! I had them hike around in the woods, climb a tree,  head into a field and wade into a river. They were up for everything I asked; which made it that much more fun for me. I enjoy being able to try lots of locations and chatting away while we work. I spent too much time chatting, smiling and laughing during this morning for it to be anything but fun!!!  So thank you to the girls and their parents for letting us spend part of the day with all of you.

Here’s a sneak peek from their session. There are more images on my Facebook page.

Here are the sisters. I love seeing them together!

I love this one in black and white. Her gentle smile works beautifully for a serene black and white.

Her dress color pops so great with the leaves.

 This one fits her personality perfectly…spunky! So up into a tree she goes!!

We took the girls out for a session. We missed doing one last year…so it was way over due! I also posted a bunch more images over on Facebook.

They are growing up way too fast for us!

So precious….

September 14, 2011 – 3:22 pm

A snuggly little newborn…what can be more precious?! I was able to spend some time with this adorable one, along with her mom and big sister, recently. I had worked with her big sister, as a newborn and baby; so it was exciting to work with their new little one. This little peanut has quite the little personality showing already. She was pretty alert and just wanted to see the world around her. You can tell she doesn’t want to miss a thing :)! Her mom did such an awesome job keeping her calm and eventually getting her asleep.

Here are a few images from her session. Check out my Facebook page to see a couple more images from this precious one!

 Enjoy,

I love how this one conveys how tiny she is in the world.

The tiny hint of a smile, in the one image, just makes me smile. We used this trunk with her big sister when she was a newborn. It’s fun to see a new baby on it :)!

Here she is with mom. I always love seeing the interaction between a child and parent. It’s so important to catch those moments. They grow up to fast.

And here is her sooooo cute big sister. Who is so excited and proud to be the big sister!

Arkansas bound….

September 13, 2011 – 2:01 pm

I had the pleasure of working with Erin and her mom recently for a Senior session.  It’s always so much fun working with these seniors. They know just what to do with little direction; must be from watching “America’s Next Top Model”! I can say something as simple as, “can you just…” and before I know it, they are posing themselves. Along with being so natural in front of the camera, Erin is also an incredible gymnast! She is excited about receving a full-ride athletic scholarship to the University of Arkansas for gymnastics. She should be so proud of herself; she shows how hard work and perseverance pays off. Congratulations Erin!!!

Here’s a sneak peek from Erin’s session! More images can be found on my Facebook page.

Enjoy!

Goooooo Arkansas!!!!

We passed by this field of flowers. Erin was great when I dragged her back there…just had to get a shot here!

She looks so strong…so in control in this image.

I love the pop of color on this one!

 I did a vintage process on this image.

She has the most stunning eyes!

Hail to the Victors…

June 30, 2011 – 8:51 pm

I got to work with this adorable little guy again this week. A few weeks ago we worked together with his cousins; but this time was all about him. His mom shared with me the most heart-warming book, she created, about his 4 month journey to come home. It was just beautiful…full of such emotion. To see all of the stages he went through while overcoming his challenges was so amazing. It was filled with all of the people who love him and worked so hard to bring him home. He and his family are truly Victors.

Here are a few images from his session. A couple more images are on my Facebook page.

Enjoy,

He’s surrounded by a Michigan family. I heard his Uncle is doing a great job getting him lots of maize and blue!!

He loves his tummy time! 

He is a very happy baby. I loved his smiles!

 He had the best little expressions.

By the end he was getting sleepy. I just love the sweetness of a sleeping baby.
