Rebecca Lovell is one of the most photogenic mandolinists featured on this thread.

And one heck of a mandolin player too. With her and Sierra in the mandolin world's hands we don't have to worry about the next generation as much.
P.S. If you haven't heard Rebecca, Check her out at merlefest. She is playing all four days with her band the lovell sisters.
Absolutely! What I find intriguing about her is how different her own music is from the more traditional music she plays in The Lovell Sisters. She clearly is interested in exploring the instruments possibilities beyond traditional bluegrass. Check out their myspace pages to hear what I mean.
Also, her fingers. I wish I had long skinny fingers like hers! Someday I hope to see them fly along the fretboard ...

I don't believe any of these have been posted after a quick perusal of the "search this thread" feature. Here are two more and I think that Rebecca has passed Sharon Gilchrist for the "most posted woman with a mandolin" in this thread.

Oops, her last name's not Lovell, but she is a gal who plays mandolin....

Ha! It is to laugh - and so I do ... Another county heard from - and a good thing too.
Of course there are more mandolinists than Rebecca, and even more Lovells than she, but the Sisters are indeed quite Lovell-y ... OK, quite enough of that!
Speaking of which ... Someone mentioned their appearance at Merlefest, so here's a bit of that. Sorry about the scale on the long shot of Mando Mania, but I'm sure many will still be able to identify some of the participants. And posing with another well-known mandolinist and occasional bassist, John Paul Jones. Funny how they keep lining up Rebecca, Jessica, Megan, left to right.
And I'm going to try and shift my focus to include others, really! There are so many, as this thread has proven.

Spending so much time focusing on the players, it's easy to forget about the instruments. I came across this step-by-step photographic record of the processes involved in building a mandolin for Rebecca Lovell of The Lovell Sisters. Of course it doesn't show every step, but it's very instructive especially for those of us (myself included) who have never seen the craftsmanship that goes into creating the magic. And the final result is truly beautiful.

It's Sunday morning, time to spend some time with the kids.
Got your Sunday-go-to-meeting clothes on? Me neither. The young lady in the first picture is participating in the annual Hart's Square "reenactment" in Catawba County NC. It's a private collection of over 60 reconstructed log cabins, open to the public once a year on the fourth Saturday of October, when craftsmen and artisans demonstrate the way of life in the 1840's. Her costume may be period but her mandolin is not.
That's Leah in the middle. And I'm sure many recognize Sierra Hull.
