Laurie Rhodes Photographer

MY NEW WEBSITE: At the end of last year, laurierhodes.com was taken offline for about a month for a redesign and I relaunched just after Thanksgiving. Since then, I've been working to bring more of the content back online, in addition to adding new galleries and blog content. I invite you to take a look around, at your leisure. ~ Thanks!

Earlier this fall, I had the true pleasure of photographing Katya and Jared, celebrating their engagement. Congratulations to the couple!

A favorite from a recent family portrait session!

Heading into 2021

JULIA & JUSTIN GET MARRIED: Choosing not to postpone, Julia and Justin pivoted from a wedding reception planned for a bowling alley to a backyard wedding. Having just purchased a house, (that has yet to be renovated), it was the perfect setting for social distancing indoors and out. At their respective bachelor/bachelorette parties, they painted brightly colored, elaborately-themed birdhouse, seen here in one of the photos! - - NOTE: I'm in the process of a website redesign, so I will be sharing my photo shoots here on Facebook, exclusively, until the new website is launched. ;)

Zowee! Vanessa playfully squishes frosting onto Dave’s face! June, 2012.

Most of my wedding photography sessions that were scheduled for this year have been postponed to 2021 not a surprise. Like so many of us have had to do, I’ve adapted relegated to photographing mini-mony’s (newly coined term for mini wedding ceremonies), engagement photos, and family portraits. Of course, I’ve coordinated a thorough understanding and planned for COVID-19 precautions in the process because couples are still getting married, albeit a little differently.
