They say a picture speaks a thousand words and the heirlooms created by Laura Novak tell stories that are sure to be shared by families for generations to come. A creative and artistic professional who nearly missed her calling until serving as a friend's unofficial wedding photographer, Laura is nationally celebrated for her work and is renowned for eye-catching pieces that capture the emotion and movement and energy and purpose that is so representative of whom her subjects are.  In the past six years Laura has photographed over 200 weddings with photos appearing on the pages of many publications including People Magazine, US Weekly, The Knot, Elegant Weddings, Brides Magazine, Modern Bride, My Day Magazine, Philadelphia Elegant Bride, Professional Photographer Magazine and the Wedding Photographer's Handbook. In 2007, Laura was named one of two photographers nation-wide as Kodak's Photographers, recognizing her ability to capture spontaneous, intimate and emotional moments like few others in her field.
