South Africa

I am so excited to finally launch my new website as Lori Hendrix Photography! This is something I’ve been working towards for a while now, and I’m thrilled to be able to share stories with you through the lens of my camera. Someone once said that “a picture speaks a thousand words,” and I couldn’t agree more. I believe that a simple photograph tells a unique story. I absolutely love being able to document what I see in the world around me!

With that being said, I am excited to share some photographs with you that are very dear to my heart. Recently, my husband and I took a trip to Durban, South Africa with a group from our church. Durban is a city on the southeastern coast of South Africa. It was the most beautiful place I’ve ever seen! The city sat on the Indian Ocean and the landscape ranged from mountains and valleys to flat plains and beaches- I have never seen a sky so blue! The people were amazing and the children we worked with…oh goodness…I miss them every day. There is an orphanage in a nearby village where we spent the majority of our time loving on kids who are orphaned by the AIDS epidemic. To be honest, part of my heart was left in South Africa with those children. These are some photos of the precious faces we got to see every day while in Africa. I hope this gives you a glimpse of our trip and that each picture shares a unique story that can only be summed up by a photograph.
