I know the challenges of finding a photographer who makes you feel truly yourself in front of the camera. That’s why my mission has always been to create a safe space where everyone feels welcome, seen, heard and understood.

When you feel like yourself, your photos radiate authentic joy and beauty.

With over 14 years of experience, my clients love the custom, joy-filled experience as I capture their unique story in beautiful photos they can love for a lifetime.

• Stress-free, fully-personalized experience

This is a space where everyone belongs.Hi! I’m Lauren (she/her), and I'm a queer photographer, Mom, avid nature fan, cat lover and world traveler. My mission is to document joy for unique couples, in stunning photos. I believe in a world where love is our guiding force and people are able to be fully themselves.

As a member of the LGBTQIA+ community, I understand how frustrating it can be to wonder if a photographer will make you feel comfortable in front of their camera. I understand the barriers many people face when finding a photographer who will see them as they truly are. I welcome people of all backgrounds and identities to experience the joy of capturing their true essence in beautiful photos.
