I've been the "photo friend" in the group for as long as i've had a phone
Growing up, I was that friend who needed everyone to AirDrop me every single picture from the night. I used to make little iMovie recap videos from trips or birthdays and then force my whole family to sit on the couch and watch them back with me.
Howdy, I'm Lauren
I asked for my first camera for my 19th birthday and started taking photos of my siblings and cousins just for fun. Then people started asking how much I charged, and I was like “wait… this could be a thing?”
Looking back now, that feels very full circle… because that’s exactly what I get to do for my clients.
What started as a side gig quickly became the thing that fills my heart the most.
There honestly hasn’t been a shoot since 2019 that I wasn’t genuinely excited to show up for, which still feels really special to say.
Writing emails for my engineer husband (while he does any math problems that cross my way)
I work in marketing when I'm not behind the camera, and I'm so thankful for that in my business!
Dog mom and dad to the sweetest golden retriever, Chief, who has the biggest personality (look at that face!)
I am fueled by my faith in God. He has blessed me immensely in life and in this business I love so much!
