I provide you with timeless, intentional, editorial-style photos that match your vibe effortlessly. Creating profound nuance and narrative within my work is my passion. I commit to developing a connection with all of my couples with my full heart and creative energy. I like to believe that by the end of the wedding journey, my couples feel like family.

I bring a calm energy and am fully present with you every step of the way. With my eye for detail and artistry, I strive to capture photos that are different from the norm, full of movement, and that evoke raw emotion. I want to preserve memories for you that will last for a lifetime and beyond.

Allow me to be a part of your journey, going above and beyond to capture the magic and preserve the essence of your treasured moments. I deliver high-quality work and put extra time and energy into my editing. (Yes, I edit my own photos!) I am kind, love what I do, and will commit to making your vision come to life. I shoot with 35mm film and digital, capturing your memories in an editorial and documentary style. You will find me with 5-6 cameras around my neck; )

It's all about having the energy, the people, the details. It all plays a part in the storytelling. So, I will document it all. I give my best to ensure my couples have an unparalleled experience.

I have been a movement director for over 20 years and will provide guidance that will be fun and put you at ease. Capturing the moment is what I do best. I have a creative eye for lighting, movement, and composition.

High-End Wedding Photographer

Lory is a reliable, inspired, and top-notch wedding photographer. She is a true artist and worth every penny--I would get married again just to hire her! She went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable throughout the day. She was thoughtful with all of our guests, warm, and a consummate professional. Knowing Lory was there gave me the peace of mind to really let go and enjoy my special day. We will be recommending her to all of our friends. Look no further than Lory!

Lory is AMAZING! Iconic editorial style photography

One of the best decisions we made for our wedding was booking Lory! She was an absolute rockstar and made our editorial, retro, photo goals come to life. Lory is a pro at what she does, and is incredibly knowledgeable in her craft. Our wedding day was blustery and cold and even still, she made total magic happen and worked with the elements to get stunning images. Throughout the process and day-of she was so kind, communicative, collaborative, and was a calming presence at every step. Aside from her evident talent & skill, Lory was truly a friend to us and we were so grateful to have had her by our side for the big day. I’d recommend Lory every time!!

The BEST Photographer!

Working with Lory Lyon as our wedding photographer was an absolute dream! From the moment we met her, we knew we were in good hands. Lory is not only incredibly talented, but she's also an absolute joy to be around. She has a way of making everyone feel comfortable and at ease.

On the big day, Lory was fun, upbeat, and so easy to work with. She has a true gift for capturing candid moments while still directing everyone with clear, positive energy.

Lory made sure to get all the important shots—while also sneaking in those perfect, intimate moments between us and our loved ones. She was incredibly thoughtful, capturing all the little details we didn’t even think about but now cherish. The portraits, group shots, and candid moments are all stunning, and every time we look at our photos, we’re reminded of how much fun we had on our special day.

We couldn’t be happier with our choice to work with her. If you're looking for a photographer who’s not only a master of her craft but also someone who’ll make your wedding day that much more enjoyable, Lory Lyon is the one. Highly, highly recommend!

Fantastic Wedding Photographer

Two words: hire her. My husband and I are not big on taking pictures, and felt pretty anxious for our wedding photos. Lory, and her assistant Cirsty, made it feel so fun and comfortable. They were hyping us up the entire time, and we enjoyed ourselves so much that I think my husband is considering a career switch to modeling. Additionally, she was always incredibly responsive while we were in the planning process, and helped us develop a photography timeline and shot list that balanced what we wanted to do with what made sense for the photography (lighting needs, etc.) based on her expertise. We are so happy we went with Lory and absolutely recommend her.

Awesome photographer

We were thrilled with our wedding photographer, Lory. She was punctual, professional, and incredibly warm.

We couldn't be happier with our photos and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a talented photographer. Thank you, Lory, for making our day unforgettable!

Absolutely Stunning!

We couldn't be more thankful for the incredible work Lory did for us on our wedding day. Every single photo is stunning—above and beyond any expectations we might've had. We're completely obsessed! She's a through and through professional with an impeccable eye—an artist—capturing us in such a way that genuinely feels so true to form. And she made us feel so comfortable (which says a lot for two people who feel uncomfortable in every photo ever—and in life generally). She made our day feel so incredibly special and we can't wait to share her gorgeous work with everyone we love!

Lory is priceless!

We are obsessed with our photos!! Lory is so easy to work with, and made us comfortable having a camera around. She was in stealth mode and I was fully able to enjoy the day without being self conscious about being photographed. Having her energy there with us was a breath of fresh air. On the shoot day, she allowed everything to unfold organically, nothing forced.

Along with Lory being a joy to work with, she was organized, detail oriented, intentional about her work, and gave us some brilliant ideas for our wedding portraits. .

She is a true luxury photographer! Every photo was a work of art. I can assure that every dime spent with Lory was worth it! We have pictures that we will cherish for the rest of our lives. Hire her immediately!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
