Lauren is truly amazing. We first met her when she did our engagement shoot - she had the best vibe and the pictures turned out so wonderful. Once we found our venue, we reached out to make sure she was free before we booked it and we are so glad we did! She is so organized and knows the best places/lighting/poses. Throughout the day she was everywhere and nowhere at once. She truly felt like she was one of our loved ones celebrating with us. The morning after our wedding, she sent us a ton of sneak peaks that are all amazing and truly capture what a fun day it was.
The 2nd photographer she brought along, Nikki, also went above and beyond. I can see why they work together, they are both so fun and have great energy. Nikki even tied up her dress and went INTO the lake to get the best angles for us.
We couldn't have asked for a better duo to capture our day!

Even though I've technically never met Lauren in person, I can say with confidence that she is a fantastic person and artist. Anyone who works with her is incredibly lucky! I did extensive research on wedding photographers in the Tahoe area, since photos are extremely important to me. I wanted my wedding photos to be a beautiful, honest representation of the day and an authentic representation of my husband and I, our family, and friends. Her work stood out- she has a great eye for beautiful candid moments, and it was clear from her wedding galleries that she is an incredible photojournalist and her work will give you all the feels.

Lauren is super responsive and answered all of my questions leading up to the wedding, down to timelines and other vendor recommendations. We hired her 2 photographer package, so that we could have a second shooter for our larger wedding. She even donated some of the proceeds to one of our favorite charities! Unfortunately during the week of our wedding, she had an unexpected family emergency and understandably could not be there with us on the day of. She called us immediately to let us know, and informed us that she had already made arrangements for our second shooter (Nicky) to take over as the primary and brought in a new second shooter (Annie). She reassured us they would be fantastic, a similar vibe to herself, and that all of the images would still go through her for processing.

Based on our previous conversations, I was not at all concerned about the photos (more so about her!). Lauren is incredibly friendly, fun, and a seasoned professional, who builds great relationships with her clients. I truly hope I can find another excuse to hire her again, because I know she would be an absolute joy to work with.

Nicky and Annie did a fantastic job covering our wedding and were so enjoyable to have on our big day. The photos we got back from them, processed by Lauren were everything we wanted!

Lauren has become the official family photographer for us when we go to Tahoe every [other] year. She has photographed my family several times in Tahoe and hiring her for my wedding was a no brainer! She has always delivered photos that show how happy and fun we are and the wedding photos were no exception! We got our previews the night of the wedding, and we just got our full gallery back and I teared up looking at all of them! I was so thrilled to see the day laid out like that! I love the photos so much! Whether it's family pictures in Tahoe or a wedding in Virginia, Lauren will exceed your hopes for the day!

Lauren is not just an amazing photographer but also a very cool and fun person. She is a true photojournalist and does amazing things with light — our photos are stunning! And she’s fun! Our guests begged her to stay and hang out after she was done. AND she is professional, kind, and communicates clearly and directly. I could go on and on. We couldn’t recommend her more highly!

In every way, shape, and form, Lauren is the MVP of wedding vendors. I first contacted her in 2019, and between now and then, I went through 2 postponements, an elopement, and a wedding! She has been 💯 on communication, responsiveness, and how knowledgeable she is about the Tahoe area. When COVID hit, she graciously offered to photograph our elopement, and on our wedding day, she went beyond and above. Beautiful photos, punctual, will help bring you down to earth when you get a fuzzy wedding brain and answered a billion questions I had. Her photography style will tell the story of your day without the stuffy photo list of shots. She's not afraid to put you or anyone in line so that she can do the best job, and I love that. She also biked a steak to my friend at my reception (so yeah, she's fantastic). I couldn't recommend her more.

Really glad I finally have time to share about our great experience with Lauren. She made our experience way more fun than we expected. She's super funny and is a true professional but also fun to be around.
She was also really accommodating with our numerous emails and in dealing with our anxiety regarding the pandemic. I really appreciated her clear communication since day-one and would definitely recommend her for your photography needs. Her portfolio speaks for itself. In addition, we were really impressed with the turnaround time, especially given the Holidays. The pictures themselves are lovely and I can't wait to share our favorites with loved ones. Thank you again Lauren!

We found the photographer who we will use forever. Originally, Lauren volunteered with a community project I was affiliated with. Kudos in my book for being community oriented, always giving back. Then, a year later I won a raffle for a small shoot and got to experience her. Work with her, see, hire...? However you put it I think we're, like, friends now?
Portraits, community service, engagement shoot, cocktail hour meet up, a pandemic, organizing better than any other vendor we used, dancing, family session at the wedding, a photo booth-- Lauren is it.

I hired Lauren for my elopement that was put together fairly last minute in Tahoe, which I'd never been to. I honestly don't think I could have put in less effort planning this elopement and Lauren was a big part of why it turned out to be such a magical day. She not only gave us incredible photos that we'll cherish for a lifetime, but between her and our captain/officiant (we got married on a boat) they chose perfect places for our ceremony, photos, and great spots for a romantic boat tour afterwards. She was also such a joy to have as our one and only guest.

Having your wedding ceremony on a small boat with two strangers could have gone much differently lol. But Lauren (and Capt. Steven) were so much fun that I left feeling thankful they had been a part of our special day.

Lauren sent me a few of the photos she'd taken before we even got off the boat that day and sent the rest of them soon after. They were so beautiful, they made me cry. Amidst all the fun we were having I barely even noticed how many authentic moments she had captured between my now husband and I. Her eye for finding the perfect shot was truly incredible. The wedding I planned by Googling "Tahoe Boat Rentals" ended up looking like an extravagant magazine spread. I'm so grateful to have randomly come upon her services and to have trusted her recommendations. I would 100% hire Lauren again and would recommend her to anyone looking for great photography.

We hired Lauren for our small wedding at Sand Harbor in Incline Village. We adored her pictures we saw on her website and went for it! So glad we did! Lauren has an amazing personality & is extremely talented! The pictures she took turned out amazing, we love every single shot! We recommend Lauren to anyone & everyone! She is a great photographer with a good eye, also pretty darn cool! 😎 📸❤

I could not be happier with the pictures Lauren captured from our wedding! She has an eye for special moments and was so skilled at preserving the emotion of our day. Even my dad who was slightly ambivalent about the pricing at first stated, "the pictures were worth the extra money". Coming from a large family with 28 first cousins, he believes that our wedding had the best pictures out of any other family wedding we've attended (across the country). All our guests were also super impressed at how organized Lauren was and appreciated her directions to get the best angles and lighting. To sum it all up, she's efficient, has a great eye, and was a pleasure all around to work with.
