I never thought I would be a wedding photographer.

I’m Lauren…and I was never the girl who dreamed of her wedding day. Truth is, I didn’t dream of my wedding because everything I saw wasn’t what I wanted from my day. With the help of friends, family, and my fiancé, we planned the entire day to be exactly what we wanted it to be...and my viewpoint changed drastically.

I've been practicing photography for 10+ years and have learned, grown, and perfected my craft so much in my many years of creating (though I'll never stop learning, growing, and perfecting!) After years of taking photos as a hobby, I started my own portrait business in 2017 and became an official LLC in 2019.

I absolutely adore taking photos and don't see it as “just clicking a button”. I want to create an experience for each and every one of you and produce pieces of art that document your life right now- right as it is. I direct my sessions, but I'm all about creating emotional connections during our time so I can capture your true lives and emotions. I want to document your life, not a fictional version of it.

The majority of my clients have told me they always look awkward in their photos or have never had professional images taken, and I do everything I can to make everyone comfortable so that we get some amazing captures. One of my favorite things is hearing "I was not expecting that to be fun! You made that so easy!" from my clients again and again after sessions. So if you haven’t had professional photos taken before, not to worry!
