We are SO happy that we chose to work with Lauren of LAD Photography for our wedding day! We got married December 2022 at The Cliff House and got our photos back last week and they're absolutely incredible!! Lauren is amazing to work with from start to finish! She did not let one detail go unseen, she was prepared, professional, efficient, and so fun to be around. Not only did she make our day the best experience, the quality of her work is truly amazing. She made sure we got every shot we wanted and we are IN LOVE with our photos. I had very high expectations, wanting my photos to be perfect and the day to be seamless without feeling rushed and I was not disappointed one bit. I highly recommend them to any future bride/groom, you will love her and your photos!

If you’re looking for a photographer to perfectly capture the essence of your wedding day, hire Lauren.

My husband and I met Lauren after we browsed through her website’s photography portfolio and were amazed by the drama and beauty of her photos. In our first meeting, she sat with us for over an hour to understand how we wanted our special day to be captured. She asked key questions, offered helpful photography tips (that we still use to this day when taking photos), and expressed her genuine dedication to capturing our wedding like a dream.

After this first interaction with Lauren, my husband and I were absolutely certain and enthusiastic about hiring Lauren as our wedding photographer.

Leading up to the wedding day, we had excellent communication with Lauren. She was responsive, supportive, and made the wedding planning process fun! She set up at least two meetings where we discussed the timeline of the wedding day and the moments we wanted to capture. She also offered helpful advice that ultimately made our day run smoothly.

On our wedding day, Lauren was professional, warm, and honestly helped keep our timeline on schedule. Her soothing, confident energy made me feel like I could relax and enjoy my wedding day. She and her team added excitement, joy, and laughter to our wedding day.

My husband and I formed such a bond with Lauren that on our wedding day, not only was she our photographer, but we thought of her as a wedding guest, a valuable member of our wedding who supported the love my husband and I share.

When we received our wedding photos back from Lauren, we could not believe it. Our photos were as stunning as the ones Lauren’s portfolio that made us fall in love with her work in the first place. We couldn’t believe we were lucky enough to be subjects in her photography masterpieces. (Seriously, no matter what size we frame these photos, they are equally as eye-catching).

I don’t know how Lauren does it. Because the techniques she uses truly captures how the air felt that day — what the atmosphere at the reception sounded like — and how in love my husband and I felt that day. Lauren and her team successfully captured our wedding exactly as we hoped: an absolute dream.

LAD Photography captures the vision and emotion of your wedding day. Her photos remind you of the excited-nervous anticipation, the joy of your family members, and the love you feel for your partner.

These photos are a time capsule: preserving one of the best days of our lives.

My husband and I are so grateful to Lauren and her team — for their talent, compassion, and dedication. We are so lucky that we met Lauren and that she will now always be a part of our lives due to the natural bond we created.

Hiring LAD Photography for our wedding was one of the best decisions we have ever made.

Lauren was simply amazing. Having never really planned an event before, never mind a wedding, Lauren was so helpful to me by asking all the right questions to figure out my wants and needs in a photographer. She gave me advice on how to structure the day, best backgrounds for photos, and really rolled with it when it began to rain 10 minutes before our ceremony. She was incredibly helpful in making our wedding day perfect. And I haven't even seen the photos yet!

EDIT: Received my photographs in the time frame Lauren set, and I cry every time I look at them. They are simply beautiful. The lighting, the backgrounds she managed to photograph us in front of, and really capturing how we all felt that day. I am thrilled that she PERFECTLY captured how perfect our day was, and the happiness we all felt. So lucky to have chosen Lauren, you should too!

HIRE HER ASAP! I hired Lauren to photograph when I proposed to my girlfriend in Acadia National Park. I am from New York and had never been there before. Lauren didn't just photograph the proposal. She emailed with me back and forth for MONTHS leading up to the event. She took it upon herself to even visit Acadia before and send me a picture of the location and photoshop an X on the picture so I knew where to stand. Lauren was such an integral part of the proposal process and success. The night before the proposal I didn't like the weather I was seeing and without hesitation, she offered to show up a few hours earlier. I am so happy we made that change because it ended up raining like 30min after we wrapped out our photoshoot. I can't say enough good things about how helpful she was. I haven't even mentioned the actual photographs yet. These came out absolutely amazing! My fiancee loved how they turned out. I am so happy I hired Lauren to photograph my proposal. I now have these amazing pictures to remember such a significant part of our lives.

We are beyond happy we chose Lauren as our wedding photographer! She was very professional and easy to work with from the first phone call. We absolutely loved our engagement shoot with Lauren, and were so excited for her to shoot our wedding! Lauren was a very relaxed, calming presence on the wedding day and went above and beyond! From the traditional shots, to the more artistic -- Lauren truly has a great eye. Our photos are so beautiful, crisp and clear. How will we pick our favorites?! :) We love them all so much! We highly recommend LAD Photography.

If you’re reading this review…. You have found the absolute BEST photographer there is. CONGRATS! LAD Photography doesn’t even begin to compare to anyone else out there. We are so incredibly lucky to have found Lauren and I knew from our first phone consultation that she was who we had to work with. She is an amazingly talented photographer and genuinely kind, wonderful person. And, she was so much more than a photographer - coordinating every minute of our wedding day and ensuring we stuck to that timing! Lauren was almost like having your own personal wedding planner, providing advice and helping us make decisions along the way, to ensure our day was exactly how we envisioned it. THANK YOU. Throughout all of the planning, we felt so comfortable, re-assured, and stress-free knowing she would be by our side on the big day! Lauren made us feel so at ease and relaxed behind the camera as well, during both our stunning engagement shoot and wedding day. The engagement shoot was the perfect “rehearsal” to our big day. Lauren showed us numerous natural poses (that felt like us) that we could easily remember on our wedding day, so we could get through photos timely. And after the shoot, she asked us for feedback on the photos we loved most, so she could ensure she captured more of our favorite styles for our wedding day. I mean, if that’s not extreme professionalism and customer-centric way to run a business, I don’t know what is! The engagement and wedding photos LAD Photography captured are absolutely breathtaking. Her photos are honestly the best photos and work I’ve ever seen from a photographer. We have shared them all over social media and I’ve had countless people tell me how stunning and incredible her work is. Looking at her work is just jaw dropping and brings tears to my eyes. Numerous friends have already told me they want to use her as their wedding photographer and asked for her information (and they aren't even engaged YET). Lauren is truly a beautiful and extremely talented person and this shines through in her work. We felt privileged to have met her and have her be a part of our wedding. We will treasure every single photo she took, forever. And we can’t wait for the next opportunity for her to photograph more milestones in our life!!!! She is the best decision you will make for your wedding!

When my now husband and I first got engaged he knew immediately who he wanted to be our wedding photographer. Having been a big fan of Lauren’s work for so long he had always envisioned her photographing our wedding. We ended up using her for both our engagement photos and wedding photos and we couldn’t have been happier with our experience working with Lauren and the resulting photos. As someone who doesn’t love having their picture taken, I can honestly say that working with Lauren was a breeze. Her helpful suggestions prior to our wedding (she even helped us organize our day of timeline and was in on a surprise I had planned for my husband) and specific instructions the day of helped us get the beautiful photos we were hoping for. Lauren was very easy to communicate with, prompt in her replies to our emails and never made us feel like any questions we had were silly or unimportant. And we had A LOT of questions! The day of the wedding Lauren made everyone feel completely at ease, almost as though we had another friend in the bridal suite with us. And her professionalism was unmatched. She managed to wrangle my large, crazy extended family and organize photos so that my 94-year-old grandmother was able to participate and yet still rest as needed. I will forever be grateful for the photos she captured of my grandmother and myself. She also proved willing to do anything for a shot, including laying in the dirt and grass to get a beautiful shot of my husband and myself across a small pond at our venue. All of this makes Lauren an amazing photographer but what I loved most about working with Lauren is how perfectly she captured the vibe and spirit of our wedding. We wanted a relaxed, fun, low-key day to celebrate with our friends and family and Lauren perfectly captured those feelings in both the posed photos and the more candid shots. We would definitely recommend Lauren and LAD Photography to anyone looking for an amazing wedding photographer. You will have a wonderful experience and walk away with AMAZING photos!

We had LAD as our wedding photographer in July, and couldn't be happier working with Lauren and with our final photos. Lauren was very laid back and easy to work with, and also very professional. Lauren also did our engagement photo shoot and was willing to meet us in Boston so we could have pictures done in our home town. On our wedding day it rained, and Lauren and her assistant photographer were troopers with the weather to get the outdoor pictures we wanted. She even trekked down to the beach with us to get some beautiful ocean shots.

I would highly recommend LAD photography if you are having your wedding in Northen New England! Our final wedding photos were absolutely stunning, and we couldn't have been happier with Lauren's photography services.

Lauren is amazing. She is incredibly thorough and professional. She photographed our surprise engagement photos after she captured my now husband's proposal. We booked her as soon as we could to photograph our wedding. We cannot wait to see our wedding photos. Lauren is special and you will not get the level of quality or creativity from any other photographer that you will get from Lauren.

LAD photography covered our wedding on 9/10/16 and I absolutely cannot recommend her enough. She did our engagement photos first this past winter and I'm still getting compliments on them. We used them for our save the dates but I'm even planning on using them again for christmas cards. At the wedding she and her second shooter were absolutely amazing. They never felt intrusive at all but we got some spectacular photos that seem almost impossible considering they were never noticeable the whole night. We now have hundreds of photos of the best night of our lives. I plan to use LAD photography for any and all of my future photography needs. Lauren is also just a really relaxed and cool person that really made you feel at ease. Especially helps on your wedding day!
