Hi, I'm Lauri

Iā€™m a Commercial Photographer in Winchester, VA and I make the Ordinary Appear Extraordinary!

Located in the heart of Winchester, VAā€™s downtown walking mall, Bridgeforth Photographics and Lauri Bridgeforth create beautiful imagery from Portrait Photography to Commercial Photography, Photo Restoration and Drone Photography. It takes an artistā€™s eye to see beauty in the everyday, uniqueness in the smallest detail, individuality in every portrait and grace in commercial terms. For more than three decades, Lauri Bridgeforth has been shooting dynamic imagery for both professional and personal clients, making the ordinary appear extraordinary. Thank you for visiting!

Photo Restoration

Donā€™t let your precious memories fade away. With every passing day, your old photographs continue to deteriorate due to exposure from sunlight, humidity and pollutants in the air.Now is the time to restore and share them with your children and grandchildren

Business Headshots

A headshot is a photograph of a personā€™s head and shoulders, with an emphasis on the personā€™s face. Actors and models most frequently need headshots. However, other professionals from star athletes to business owners need a photograph designed to market their personality.

  • Light ā€˜Em Up. So weā€™re all posting our Northern Lights shots because unless we live in the frozen tundra, this is really cool and we never thought weā€™d see it in the backyard right? When I looked through my pictures (because we photographers canā€™t take just one and a bazillion is more like it) I was struck by the variety of colors and the patterns they created. So hereā€™s 9 variations of the same view that created 1 really cool image. Just might need to create a metal print of this! Apparently we can see them again tonight so there may be a whole new round by tomorrowā€¦ šŸ¤©

  • Do you have a vintage family photo that has seen better days? Maybe itā€™s cracked or stained or the kids got hold of it with crayons? (That last one is a true story by the way šŸ˜‚) Bring it by the studio in Old Town Winchester VA and Iā€™ll take it from there! Restorations make fabulously personal holiday gifts too! (But plan ahead pleaseā€¦I get slammed in November and December.) See you soon!

  • Ice in July. The last of winterā€™s snow melts into the rocks below to form waterfalls further down the landscape. We treasured those brilliant blue skies too when we discovered they could cloud over within minutes. Definitely an amazing experience!
