SENIOR…what???  How can that be???  I first photographed Emily when she was only two or so.  Boy, time flies!  I am STUNNED at how beautiful she is.  I always count it a blessing to stay in families’ lives throughout my career.  To get to record your history through images…what a blessing indeed.

We had such a good time creating images and playing with Stella, the kitten.  Stella was as good of a model as Emily was!  Even outside! 

Emily plans to attend GSU then hopes to transfer to SCAD-Atlanta.  One of my favorite stores, West Elm, highlights SCAD-Atlanta student’s work.  I bet I’ll see Emily showcased there one day!

I am amused from time to time as other photographers brag about photographing a "celebrity".  When I see this it is a great reality check for me.  Photographing famous people is an everyday encounter for me.  I think if your not famous before I photograph you – you certainly will be afterwards.  Especially if your featured on my blog or web site!  Clients tell me all the time they can not believe how many people saw their portrait in my window here in Statesboro or in the Savannah Mall, or on my website and blog.  It really makes you feel special when someone stops you and tells you that they saw you on or in a Lori Grice product.  I guess I should do a better job of  pointing out my "celebrity" clients – but just assume if I don’t make a point to tell who they are – that if they have selected me as their portrait photographer either they are somebody special or soon will be!  Ok enough of that.  You definitely would recognize Emily’s Dad…he is a local celebrity.  You can catch him every night on WTOC channel 11 in Savannah.  We are almost as proud of him as we are Emily.
