From the moment we first spoke with her ~2 years before our wedding through our big day, she was unbelievable to work with. Aside from the incredible quality of her photos (which is no small thing!!), a few specific things that she did that are worth highlighting:
- During our engagement shoot, Lauren assured us that it wasn't that we "aren't photogenic," but that we just hadn't ever received direction on how to pose. In the time we spent with her, she made us genuinely laugh throughout and helped us feel at ease even though neither of us had ever done a professional photo shoot. Needless to say when we got our photos back we were overwhelmed at how incredible they were - and how comfortable we looked!
- She proactively came to us with a proposed wedding timeline that was incredibly detailed (but adjusted to our specific situation/events). It was so good we ended up using it as the "core" timeline document for all of our vendors, family and bridal party to reference. Other vendors commented on how detailed and organized we were, but it was all Lauren.
- Our family expressed to us after our wedding at how sweet Lauren (and the rest of her team) were. She was so fun and bubbly throughout the whole day! If she was ever stressed or concerned about something that was happening, she never let it show to any of us!
- Several of our friends told us that they waited months to see any photos from their wedding. We had 15 photos to look at the DAY AFTER our wedding, and another 100 just two weeks after. It was so nice having some beautiful images to share with our friends and family when it was still fresh on everyone's minds vs. having to wait 2-3 months to see anything!

There is probably more I could say about Lauren but hopefully you get the gist: Lauren will be THE best hire you make for your wedding!!

We’ve been telling our friends that a good wedding photographer can take great photos, but an amazing one can do that plus understand the bride and groom’s emotions at any given second, direct the groups effortlessly so the wedding stays on schedule, and more. Lauren Kearns is an AMAZING wedding photographer.
From the moment we met Lauren for our engagement photos last July, she made us feel so comfortable, really leaned into our photogenic strengths, and created engagement photos that were beyond what we could have ever dreamed of. We instantly had no doubts that she would be just as wonderful to work with on our wedding day, and we were right. From the very beginning of our wedding day prep, through first looks, group photos and party photos, Lauren and her team were right by our side getting the most amazing shots and keeping our group on schedule throughout the process. We never felt that her team was in the way of the wedding, yet they managed to capture every moment perfectly. We cannot thank Lauren and her team enough for our incredible first batch of wedding photos and we are so excited to see the full gallery in the coming weeks!

From the engagement session to our actual wedding Lauren went above and beyond. There was an emergency flash flood warning in NYC on the day of my wedding and Lauren came with smiles and an amazing attitude. She made us feel so comfortable and happy. She was amazing to work with and even took photos of our dog and baby on the wedding day as well. Her whole team was professional. We loved the way all the photos came out- timeless and really captured the essence of the wedding. Cannot say enough great things about Lauren!
