Artist Biography: Lori Lankford is an established nature photographer, digital artist and instructor. She comes from a long line of gardeners, artist and teachers.
With photography she gets to be all three. Lori's artistic medium is photography - capturing the expected in unexpected ways, embracing the shadows and chasing the light.
As a gardener, she takes her love of nature and transform it into art. Lori likes to find the beauty in every season, focusing on the details, colors and texture. Her tools are a mix of creative techniques with the camera as well as editing to enhance her work.
Teaching is in her DNA- sharing her passions and helping other find their creative voice. She works one on one with students mentoring them in creative photography as well as teaching online and live classes throughout the year.
