"dear laura, i cannot begin to tell you how thrilled we are with the photos you took. as a mom, i can tell you that when my girls first looked at the proofs, there was a look of pride and confidence in both their faces that i have never seen before. that look is something i will take with me forever, and something you cannot put a price on. you are what my husband and i call "the kid whisperer." you are able to photograph looks and emotions that i occasionally catch glimpses of...but know i could never capture. you have a gift and i consider myself lucky to have found you. and my future grandchildren are lucky that they will inherit these gorgeous photos of their parents – as kids – someday. thank you, thank you. you are one of the best in the world." - jennifer r.

"laura has a warmth and sincerity about her that immediately puts children at ease. asking busy children to sit down and smile on command is something so foreign and strange, but in laura's hands they are completely comfortable. she has a way of working with children that allows her to capture the magic of the moment and create images that take your breath away. i am overcome every time i catch a glimpse of the images she has created over the years – a photo chronicle i will cherish forever." - jill s.
