welcome
I'm so glad you stopped by my table at the Mansion Curators' Bridal Showcase.
Thank you for taking the time to meet me!
I've put together this page so you can explore full wedding galleries at Glen Cove Mansion, learn a little more about my approach, and see what it's like to work together.
I hope it gives you a glimpse into how I document a wedding day—with intention, genuine moments, and timeless imagery you'll treasure for years to come.
my approach
I believe the best photographs come from feeling comfortable enough to be completely yourself. My role is to gently guide you when needed, step back when the moments unfold naturally, and create timeless images that reflect not just how your wedding looked, but how it felt.

Couldn't have asked for a better wedding photographer!!! Hiring Photo by Lore was the best decision we ever made. She captured our wedding day (and engagement shoot!) so beautifully. Lorena goes above and beyond to make you feel comfortable and to get the most perfect shots on your special day. She doesn't miss a single detail!!! Lorena is beyond talented at what she does and we feel so grateful to have had her as our wedding photographer. We could not have imagined our wedding day without her!!! 10/10
Allison & Dean
Working with Lorena for our wedding was an absolute dream!! From our initial meeting for our engagement shoot in Central Park, it was clear that she was not only skilled, but genuinely passionate about capturing our special moments. On our wedding day, Lorena had an amazing way of making us feel at ease while capturing every heartfelt moment and spontaneous laugh.
Our sneak peak photos (which came back SO quick) are simply stunning and perfectly reflect the love and joy we felt.
Alex & Matt
Our favorite vendor!!! From the very first phone call we knew Lore would be such a special part of our day. The planning could not have been easier and she answered every question we had along the way! On the day of, Lore and her second shooter were energetic, kind, and so fun to work with. She helped wrangle our large bridal party with such ease and everyone raved about how great she was at organizing the shots. The photos speak for themselves and you can feel the love in each shot.
Annie & Griffin
Lore was so incredible! From the first engagement shoot my wife and I were very made very comfortable through every second, we were able to get through our pictures efficiently so that we could go and enjoy our night with our guests. She made sure we got all the shots we needed and then got candids of us enjoying our night! 10/10!
Marielle & Chris
We hired Lore initially to do our engagement photos after receiving a referral from a friend who had also used her for their engagement photos. My fiancee and I were both pretty nervous about this because we had never gotten professional photos done and we were worried that things would feel too staged and that photos may not come out well. Enter Lore who not only is an incredibly talented photographer,but does an even better job making you feel comfortable in your own skin, and you forget she is even there
Jackie & Matt
Lore was incredible to work with from the consultation phase through engagement photos, pre-planning to the end of our wedding. Her photography is a perfect blend of portraits along with candids that are quality and emotion-capturing. Would 100% recommend!
Catherine & Connor
Lore was a dream to work with! She has an amazing eye and literally wrote down and remembered every type of photo we wanted for our wedding. Her portal makes it so easy to view your contract and payments. Her photos are a gift and she is a true treasure.
Joanna & Rob
I cannot recommend Lorena enough! From start to finish, she was an absolute dream to work with. Her communication was fantastic—she was always available to answer my questions and made the planning process so much easier. On the wedding day, despite the unexpected bad weather, she handled everything with professionalism and creativity. Lorena was incredibly friendly and made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. Her warm personality and calm demeanor helped make our special day stress-free and fun.
Chelsea & Theo
Working with Lorena for our wedding was so easy and special. We had a very large wedding party so did not do traditional photos, and Lorena was able to not only control the large group but get creative for some unique group shots that we loved. The second photographer Leo that she brought was also so kind and easy to work with. The photos they both took are beautiful and they captured our day perfectly with shots that felt genuine and natural. I would highly recommend working with Lorena for your wedding!
Cristin and Gianni
Lorena is the sweetest, most down to earth person. Wedding planning is so stressful but she made it less about the stress and more about the excitement of the big day. She has such a remarkable ability to capture the raw emotions of the day without ever feeling intrusive, and the result was a perfect balance of candid moments and artistic portraiture. She was able to tell the story of our day so beautifully. I have never felt more beautiful in photos before and she exceeded all of our expectations.
Katie & Alex
From the second I saw Lore’s work, I instantly knew that I wanted her to capture our day. She did an amazing job on our engagement shoot which really helped us prepare for pictures for the big day. She was patient, kind and so professional. On our wedding day everything went so smoothly. Her timeline was prompt and the pictures came out so beautiful I sobbed, it was like reliving the day over again. I recommend Lore to literally anyone that will listen to me. We are so so thankful for her.
Natalie & Ben
Lorena is incredible!!! She photographed my engagement shoot, bridal shower, religious wedding, and big wedding. Every single photo came out stunning!! I love that she captures genuine moments, and each photo has a cinematic feel. At our first shoot we felt a little awkward having never done professional photos before but Lorena talked us through it helping us feel comfortable throughout the entire process.
She takes the time to understand how you want your day captured and doesn't miss a beat.
Chrissy & Neill
Lore was so organized and professional. She was phenomenal at instructing us what to do, where to go, how to stand. She understands timelines perfectly and knows how to utilize time to prioritize. She captures every detail, smile, and embrace. Her communication was on par, and she was very flexible. She is a true artist and very skilled photographer. She will not shower you with pushy reasons on why to hire her, she is modest, but you absolutely should hire her!
Brianna & Marcin
Working with Lore was nothing short of a dream. She was very nice and friendly and made me and my family feel comfortable. Taking photos can be a little awkward but she made sure to make it feel natural. She managed to capture all of the best moments. I mean this as a compliment, but after a certain point, I didn't even notice where she was during the reception because she did such a great job at blending into the background and captured such great candids of all of my guests.
Melanie & Dan
Lore was absolutely amazing!!! She was extremely flexible with location, time, and with adding our puppy to part of the shoot! She was really helpful at making us feel comfortable and providing suggestions for poses, as well as areas to stop and take pictures in. What I loved the most is that she incorporated our ideas into her art direction, and that is what I think led to a great day, and even better everlasting photos!!!
Joselin & Jonathan
Lore is SUPERB, I can’t thank her enough. She captured everything so beautifully and perfectly. We are beyond happy with the results. Working with her was so easy, she was professional and kind. I highly recommend her, you will not be disappointed.
Samantha & Brendan
I can't recommend Lore enough! She shot both our engagement photos and our wedding day, and we couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. Before booking, I spoke with her extensively, and it was clear she takes the time to understand exactly what you’re looking for. She even helped us plan out the timeline of our day, which was super helpful! On the wedding day, she captured all the important bridal party and family photos, along with amazing candid shots and fun party moments.She’s simply the best
Christi & Ryan
We are so incredibly grateful for our wedding photographer! From start to finish, they were an absolute dream to work with—so easygoing, professional, and truly in tune with everything we wanted. She captured every single moment with such attention to detail. I really wanted natural photos that were captured candidly and she absolutely nailed it! They managed to be everywhere without ever feeling intrusive, which made the whole experience feel effortless and relaxed.
Julissa & Alejandro
We hired Lore for an engagement photo session and we could not be more happy with the photos! Lore was incredibly helpful at making us comfortable in front of the camera since it was our first time. She also took some of the ideas I had sent her and expanded on them so I got the vibe I wanted, but she also put her personal style in the photos. We had the edited photos back promptly. Overall this was an awesome experience and we highly recommend Lore for all of your photography needs!
Nicole's Bridal Shower
Lorena’s work for my bridal shower was absolutely beautiful. She was able to capture so many amazing memories from the special day. One picture was better than the next! She will undoubtedly be capturing our next special event.
Emmett's Newborn Session
Had an amazing experience with Lore for my baby’s newborn photo shoot. She traveled all the way to my house and came fully prepared with swaddles, outfits and anything we needed. She was so friendly and patient with my newborn, toddler and even my cat. The photos came out incredible and I’m so happy I chose Lore to take these photos during such an important time. We even got some family photos along with the newborn shoot. Highly recommend Photo by Lore, she was amazing!
Lauren, Mark & Amelia
I have done all of my photoshoots with Lore; maternity, couples, a newborn, and a few family photoshoots. Every time she comes well prepared with props and backdrops that make the shoots even more perfect and fun! She has such a way of making people (including my husband and daughter) so comfortable in front of the camera. She’s inviting and so warm from the first moment you meet her until the end of the shoot until the next! Her work is professional and we love how quickly she edits our photos!
Stephanie
I had the pleasure of working with Lorena for my bridal shower. She captured all of the photos I was hoping for and retouched them beautifully. She has a great eye! Not only were the photos fantastic, but she was really nice to work with, had a calm demeanor, and seamlessly integrated into the event. She delivered the photos shortly after the event and it was very easy communicating with her leading up to it. I highly recommend working with Lorena!
Sarah Beth
Oh gosh, I loved every bit of my experience with Lore! I had booked a session with my friend and Lore made us feel both confident and comfortable. It was especially nice because we were all on the same aesthetic wavelength. Lore encouraged us to explore - there was never the same shot twice - she provided so much artistic freedom. The end result was spectacular!
Lali & Kelvin
Lore captured our proposal, she is an amazing photographer and I would definitely book her again. She is extremely professional, punctual and a great director/artist with her camera. Thank you again for the wonderful photos!
Valerie & Alex
Lore has been spectacular! In every way, she’s friendly, responsive and great at what she doesn’t! 100% would recommend for any photography needs!
