Laura is very good at her job! Her photos are absolutely beautiful but her magic is in the way she interacts with her clients and other professionals around her.

Isabella Piercey

Shooting with Laura has been my favourite modelling experience ever!!! She’s super sweet and talented and delivers photos edited super fast. Super thoughtful and makes you comfortable in front of the camera! 11/10 recommend.

Linden Schwark

Working with Laura was fantastic. Positive energy, great skills, good communicator - everything you'd want from a photographer. Her prices are a bit higher than average, but the quality definitely reflects that. If you're around the Vancouver area, she's a great choice.

Laura is a very patient, professional and encouraging photographer. I feel so relaxing and comfortable being photographed by her, and so satisfied with the photos. I'd like to recommend her to anyone who wants real portraits.

Laura is amazing, professional, patient and talented! She pays attention to details and she really takes into account what you're looking for in a shot or session. On top of that, she makes you feel beautiful!

Claire Liu

I did a glamor photoshoot + headshot to celebrate my birthday. I couldn’t be happier with the results! Laura is very talented and professional. She is knowledgeable with posing and extremely patient with non-models like myself :) She’s able to capture the best version of me. I would definitely recommend her to my friends.

Nastaran Arasteh

Got some headshots done here recently and Laura did a great job- I highly recommend her.

charlene shanahan

Laura has been my top one photographer for many years. She took amazing photos at my wedding and beautiful shots for my baby girl. Her professionalism and fun personality deliver facinating results which barely need any editing. Our photos are just simply naturally beautiful. Laura is flexible with the schedule and easy to work with. Laura is incredibly responsible prior to the photoshoot ( e.g. she would go over as much detailed as possible and always reply our messages promptly ) And photos are delivered quickly. Anything can be edited except for facial expressions. And Laura is able to capture that natural smiles on our faces. I highly recommend her.

Theresa Ramsay

I recently had the pleasure of being able to work with Laura, a very talented Photographer and a very beautiful, spirited woman. She is very easy to work with, no experience needed in front of the camera as she will guide you into your look and produce amazing photo’s! I have worked with many photographers throughout my years of modelling and she is one of the best. Great working with you Laura.

Imani Northeast

Laura's work is absolutely amazing! She is one of the kindest photographers I have worked with and makes you feel so welcome and comfortable! Not to mention her music taste is immaculate!

keyede osuntokun

Laura is a very wonderful photographer, she pays attention to getting that perfect candid shots. She is friendly to work with, and definitely delivers good photos within a great time frame.

Nikita Wyllie

Laura Shortt is a wonderful photographer. She ensured the experience of getting headshots taken was nothing less than a pleasure - and I hate having my photo taken. Her photographs are well composed and full of personality. I will be using Laura for all my headshot needs in future.

Mary Malesan

Laura did an amazing job with my corporate headshot session. The photos were natural, relaxed, and not overly styled - exactly what I was looking for. Highly recommended!

Vivian Chen

(Translated) Laura is so talented, you can see the soul from her photos!! Laura's work is really good, it is very delicate and can also capture the spirit of the characters! And she has never stuck to one style, and can discuss with her what kind of feeling she wants to show! (Original) Laura is so talented, you can see the soul from her photos!! Laura的作品真的很棒，很細膩之外也很能抓住人物的精神！而且她從不拘泥於一種風格，想要呈現什麼樣的感覺都能和她討論！

Jenna Beatty

Laura did such a fantastic job! I didn't know what to expect going in and she really made the whole process easy and fun. I had a specific vision for the shoot (think 90s Julia Roberts) and Laura completely understood what I wanted, and totally delivered on that. Her positive energy and great sense of humour made me feel comfortable right off the bat. I'm sure I'll be back again! Thanks Laura :)

Doug Shortt

Disclosure: I'm Laura's father and as she has taken Photography Headshots for me in the past, I feel I can leave an objective review. I'm one of those people that isn't comfortable getting their picture taken. I brought a change of clothes to get some different looks from the session. Laura put me at ease immediately and coached me through the whole process of getting the right pose and facial expressions for the Headshots. This is harder to do with someone you know I think. Laura is a warm and compassionate person and this helps her clients to relax and reveal they're inner humanity. The whole experience took about 2 hours and the time just flew. I wanted the shots to use in my business and on social media and I was very pleased with the results.

Nicole Reynolds

I had a great experience working with Laura! She made me feel very comfortable and it was pleasure to work with her. The headshots turned out great, and I would book her again for sure!

James Jackson

OMG! Laura was amazing! Very professional! Extremely polite and managed to finalize our edits in a tight timeframe. My partner and I are a little camera shy but Laura made us feel at ease in-front of the camera! I would highly recommend Laura!

Alisha

Laura is professional, reliable and has a great eye. I've had her take professional photos and couldn't be more pleased with the results. She really listens to what you have in mind and ensures you are comfortable throughout the entire process. I've had many friends and colleagues comment on how impressive her work is. Would highly recommend her!

Viktoria Tryfonova

This has been an amazing experience. Laura provides beautiful, quality pictures and a good environment.

Leslie McConnell

My experience with Laura, having my headshots updated, was outstanding. Not being a huge fan of getting my photo taken, she was professional but casual and helped to make me comfortable in front of the camera. She listened to what I was after and absolutely captured the feel of the photo I was hoping for. Laura is a consummate professional who has a wonderful way of working with people and her photographs are outstanding. I could not recommend her enough. If you are looking to get some quality, unique, and beautifully composed shots of yourself, she is your lady!!!

Najwa Altal

You so wonderful because you make you models be Comfortable ❤️❤️❤️

Admin Master

Laura took our company headshots and it was a very positive experience. She made sure to spend time with each person and brought out a bit of each person's personality in the photo. The final photos looked great and were delivered quickly. Laura was easy to work with, flexible with the schedule, and her positive attitude contributed to the overall atmosphere on the day of the shoot.

Delilah Strongblood

Laura is a great. These days so many people pick up a camera and call themselves a photographer. What sets Laura apart is that she is actually a professional with great attention to detail and knows how to pose a client to get the best shots possible. I’m impressed with her technical skills but also by her people skills. The times I’ve worked with her, she’s always been thoughtful, considerate and made me feel very comfortable. I’ve already recommended her to others and will continue to do so!

Jasmine Ladjevardi

Such amazing headshots. Incredibly professional and very fun as well!

Crystal

Laura is a very kind genuine person who I found to be very professional and most especially talented! I would not hesitate to use her in the future. My only regret is that I didn't find her sooner!

Beth Ann Locke

Laura was so great! We planned a shoot for March 2020, then Covid happened. Later we were able to complete the shoot in June. Laura was very careful about following health guidelines. But what really matters is I LOOK AMAZING! But also Laura made sure my personality shone through. Plus, it was so much fun! I get so many compliments. Thank you!

Kind Lifestyles

Working with Laura is an absolute pleasure. She’s obviously talented by seeing all her beautiful imagery. She has a lovely soft elegance that makes working together flow with ease and grace. I also highly recommend Laura to help newer models with coaching for body positioning. I just love all the gentle direction that still allows an openness of having me share my ideas and inspiration too.

Elsie Beaulieu

I went to Laura to get my first ever headshots for acting and it was a wonderful experience from start to finish. The complimentary consultation was very helpful and she was incredibly sweet the entire time. I don't usually enjoy having my photo taken, but she made the process enjoyable, made me feel comfortable, and in the end the time passed by quite quickly. K, the makeup artist, was also incredibly sweet and did a wonderful job of highlighting my best features and making me look natural but very beautiful. Laura is a wonderful photographer and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to have their portrait taken!

Victoria Isberg

Laura is truly the sweetest and kindest photographer you could ever meet and work with! She guided me every step of the way. From outfit choice, makeup, and posing. She is both professional and very knowledgeable on posing and finding the right angles which work for your body. She made me feel comfortable throughout the entire time I was in front of the camera. I had a wonderful and fun experience. I would definitely recommend booking a session with her!

Caroline Kiddie

Really wonderful experience having a photo shoot with her! She is such an amazing photographer and it was a joy to work with her.

I needed to have professional photos done in a very tight schedule. I found Laura online and she was super responsive.After we had simple discussion she managed to get the photos done in a week with amazing results. I am very happy with her work and would recommend her to anyone who would needs great photos.

Candace Frank

My daughter and I traveled from Kelowna for a photo shoot a few weeks ago and found Laura to be very professional and personable. She took the time to talk to each of us before hand and made sure that we knew how things would work before and after we arrived. The photos were edited and sent over very quickly and they were absolutely beautiful!! Would highly recommend!

Shara Noble

I was extremely satisfied with Laura's work. Right from the first call to the last viewing session, Laura was super patient and professional. Her friendly and calm personality as well as her hilarious jokes made me feel at ease in front of the camera. Laura also gave me a lot of direction and guidance throughout the photoshoot, and I hope to have more photoshoots with her again!

Teo Obre

I had a Great shoot. Laura is a lovely person and a talented photographer. I would recommend her to any actor wanting new headshots.

HowCoolRolls

Not only is Laura an amazing photographer but the way she organizes and collaborates with you prior to the shoot is part of a much greater experience. For my youngest daughter's 16th birthday I arranged a photoshoot for her along with her sister and best friend. From start to finish Laura made the whole experience so easy and ensured the girls were prepped and walked through the process a week before the shoot. This made it a very personalized experience, the shoot was so professional and comfortable that the girls just had a blast! I could not use another photographer and we will definitely be back for more.

Akosuya Miki

It was such an amazing time, and I was so excited to make the photos with Laura. She was very caring and I love her personality. The quality of her personality definitely contributed to the awesome photos. I truly appreciate working with her!

Lara Deglan

I'm a film and theatre actor in Vancouver and I recently went to Laura to get some updated headshots. I have had photos taken by prominent headshot photographers in Vancouver in the past, but was disappointed by the fact that they made me look as glamorous as possible, instead of taking the time to find out what sort of roles I'd be up for. Laura on the other hand took the time to find out what type of headshots I needed/the looks I needed in my images to be able to audition for different types of roles. She delivered an outstanding product that has landed me auditions and I'll be returning to her in the future.

S Hans

I had the pleasure of working with Laura and would highly recommend her to anyone interested in having good quality and tasteful work done! Laura was extremely professional and the process of working with her was efficient and fun! She made the photo shoot experience amazing for me and I am beyond impressed with the results! I am so thankful to have met Laura and will hire her again for anything in the future!

Deia Puri

I had the best experience working with Laura. She makes a huge effort to make you comfortable in front of the camera no matter how much experience you have. She is also packed full of hilarious jokes in additional to get great work ethic! She also made sure to keep up with Covid guidelines without making my experience dry and sterile. My pictures were fantastic and I would highly recommend her!

Aksh Sidhu

Laura is the sweetest person, great to work with and incredibly talented.

Kira Celeste

Laura is a truly superb artist. After my personal branding headshots session with her I realized her work as a photographer and my work as a clinical counsellor have deep similarities. In her work she helps bring individuals’ vocational dreams and visions to life. Subtly and gently, she can guide her clients into embodying their creative vision, and the expression of their calling in the world. Laura is a profound guide for this work. I would absolutely recommend the experience of working with Laura for anyone wanting to clarify their brand and embody their creative expressions in the world (while also just having a really fun day in front of the camera!)

Johanne Howard

Laura is absolutely the best, the most talented and she is so professional. Having worked with many photographers in my former modelling career, I found working with Laura a blessing and a great gift. She has the ability of capturing the soul and she perceives the depth of the person. It is amazing to have discovered her and a pleasure to work with her. Thank you Laura and you have my deeply felt gratitude from Johanne.

Farrah Patrick

ilia sosner

I recently went to Laura for some headshots and she did a fantastic job. She's professional and delivers great results.

Carol Gorcak

While Laura herself is a lovely person, the quality of portraits i prepaid for and i received were not of true professional quality. Top of my head cut off in several, blackened teeth in another. When choosing from the proofs and paying over $2000.00 , was told these flaws would be photocopied. But delivered photos were not corrected....still top of my head chopped off and black teeth in several. When I complained, and returned a couple of the photos as examples, I received no reply...not even the courtesy off a response.

Dania Casillas

It is always beautiful to work with Laura, she’s an amazing soul so kind human with a creative vision, if I would need to describe her with one word that’ll be professionalism, she does amazing work plus I’m sure you’ll have an amazing time and lots of laughs guaranteed.

Lindsie Arbeiter

Laura knocked my socks off when she showed me the gorgeous keep sake photos from my dog's photo session! I literally got tears in my eyes. My family will cherish these photographs as pieces of art for our home for years to come! Her ability to have dogs not only pose for her but have fun during their photo sessions, is amazing! The proof is in the beautiful portraits we received. Highly recommend this photographer!

Kandy L

She has such a kind heart, I would definitely work with her in the future and I 10/10 recommend her. It was an overall fantastic experience. Go Laura! We need more people like you in the world!

Samantha Bates

I had an incredible experience with Laura for my recent personal branding headshots. Every step of the way – the prep calls, shoot day, the photo viewing session, and delivery – she took 'above and beyond' to a whole new level. She was able to kindly and professionally guide my outfit choices, poses, and expressions to capture shots that executed the vision I had. Thanks Laura! :)

Keagan Leighton

I was nervous going into my first shoot, but Laura made the experience super fun and easy. On top of that I came out with some amazing shots at a really resonable price! I could not recommend Laura Shortt Photography more!

Laura, was warm and so caring to get the right shots w/our beautiful little girl (Carin Terrier). Not to mention she came all the way out to see us to personally deliver the photos. For sure we would use Laura again!

Neda S

Omg...Laura is not only a photographer she is a mind reader, she put you at ease the moment you enter her studio no matter how hard your day has been going, you will end up leaving her studio happy. You don’t need to know how to pose she gives you all the directions and captures the most delicate and feminine side of you. I loved her professionalism, kindness and positive energy. Thank you so much Laura! Keep up being wonderful

Laura is such an incredible portrait photographer. She makes you feel completely comfortable behind the camera and I couldn’t be happier to have found her in Vancouver. I can’t wait to shoot with her again. She’s in such a convienient downtown location, so easy to get to! Till next time Laura ;)

Laura was professional, approachable, and warm. She went out of her way to make the photography experience one of the highest quality: she responded to all questions in a clear, detailed, and timely manner; she made me feel at ease during the shoot, bringing in a hot beverage of choice and treats, as well as connecting with me genuinely on a personal level; and she strived to take photos that captured my vision and we had a great deal of fun in the process! I am immensely pleased with the final product photos – Laura truly creates beautiful, unique portraits that capture the essence of her subjects.

Laura is a very talented photographer. I would definitely hire her again. It also helps that she's a pleasure to deal with and takes the time to appreciate your goals/expectations for a shoot.

Baveldeep Grewal

After over a year of procrastinating getting headshots I was so glad I had booked getting these done with Laura. While I love the results, Laura made me comfortable with the process and was so supportive that coming into the photoshoot I was prepared and felt good about it. It takes talent to do that and Laura's work is amazing. I highly recommend her!

Bonnie Lee

I did a glamour shoot for my 60th birthday and Laura was awesome! She is very passionate , encouraging and professional and was a joy to work with. She is very flexible and also accommodated my request to include some outdoor family pictures with my package. It was very nice to dress up and feel beautiful and glamorous during this pandemic. She was careful to follow COVID19 protocols and I felt safe and relaxed as well. I am pleased with the beautiful pictures. ????

J K

Laura is amazing, warm, lovely and talented photographer! She really pays attention to all the small details on how to position yourself to get that great picture. I would definitely recommend Laura as a photographer. She makes you feel relaxed and beautiful!
