Season's Greetings

Pictures with Santa - Toledo Pet Photographer

Join the Golden Retriever Rescue Resource (GRRR) and Lorenzen Studios this holiday season to have your photo taken with Santa in his sleigh in a natural outdoor setting. 
 

We have scheduled three dates and locations for this exciting holiday event. Please click on the flyer below to view the details on the dates, locations, and photo packages.

This will be my second year volunteering with GRRR for the Santa photos. It's a fun event for families to include the family pet in their holiday photos.  And the fact that the photos are taken outside in a real sleigh makes it special. The kids enjoy cookies and hot chocolate while they wait for their turn to meet Santa. Last year we had many families with a variety of pets. We even had a photo with a dog, a cat, and a ferret! So be sure to mark your calendar for this special holiday event!

All proceeds from this event will benefit GRRR.  GRRR is a 501 (c) (3) non-profit charitable organization serving the Toledo Ohio area, including all of Northwest Ohio, northeast Indiana and lower Michigan. GRRR is known for taking on sick and abused animals, rehabilitating them, and helping them find loving homes. Please support GRRR and have your photo taken at this fun holiday event.

Fall Family Photos - Toledo Family Portrait Photography

This is one from my recent session with some of my favorite clients. This family has hired me to photograph their family five times! It was such an honor to come to their home and see photographs I took hanging on their walls.


 

See more from their past sessions here, here, here, and here. I'll be posting more from this session soon!

Trick or Treat! - Toledo Pet Photography

These little ones are gearing up for some Halloween fun. They were perfect little models at my recent pet portrait sessions at Toledo Pet Farm.

 

 

 

Foster Dog Cricket - Toledo Pet Photographer

Meet Cricket. She is my new foster dog from the Golden Retriever Rescue Resource (GRRR).

 

Cricket is a 5 1/2 year old Golden Retriever/Lab/Greyhound mix that was surrendered to the rescue because her family fell on hard times. She is a sweet and loving girl. She is well behaved, housebroken, and gets along with other dogs. She is available for adoption through GRRR. For more information on Cricket click here.



Cricket is ready to "hop" right into her forever home.

MySurvey Newsletter

You might remember that the market research company that I work for, publicly known as MySurvey.com, featured one of my photographs on their New Year's Greeting e-card earlier this month. As if that isn't enough, they are also mentioning me in their January 2008 newsletter! The blurb also includes a link to LorenzenStudios.com. This newsletter will be going out to around one million households!

Thanks to MySurvey.com!

And for those of you that may have missed it here is the e-card:

Last Holiday Portraits of 2007

Well, I am a little late getting these posted, but I still wanted to share them. This session was such fun. I was happy to finally have a chance to take some photos of a little girl. These were taken in the client's home.

Happy New Year Everyone!

Great News! The market research company that I work for has asked to use one of my photographs of the Toledo area on the New Year's e-cards that will be sent out to all of their members! I'm not allowed to say exactly how many emails with my image are going to households across the country, but let's just say that it's close to one million!

Twin Baby Boys

I had so much fun photographing these twin baby boys. Such cuties! You can already see a sweet connection between them. These were taken in the client's home. I loved this session so much that it was difficult to pick my favorites.

Fun Couple

This session was such a breeze. The couple was so fun and laid back and their dog is such a cutie. Here are a few of my favorites.

Baby Boy Is Growing

This was my second shoot with this little guy, and it was such fun! He was so sweet and didn't fuss once (even when we stuffed him in to that stocking). Such a dream to photograph. Even the family dogs got in on the fun. These were taken at the client's home. Here are a few of my favorites.
