Amazing Photographer for our Sunrise Elopement Hike

TLDR; Lauren was absolutely amazing! She went above and beyond the duties of a photographer- helped me with my hair, carried our vow books around etc. Her photographs of our elopement have made all of our family members cry and we got compliments from everyone saying they were the most beautiful wedding photos they had ever seen! We had a blast with Lauren and I can't recommend her enough!!
My fiance and I ended up having to postpone our wedding an entire year and just couldn't wait that long. I came up with a relatively crazy plan to instead elope after a sunrise hike but was worried about finding a photographer willing to do that... And in came Lauren! I saw that she had previously photographed on the mountain that we had planned for the elopement and sent her a message. She quickly responded and agreed to a sunrise hike (this is no joke because we met at the trailhead at 4 AM) and even agreed to some flexibility in case of rain. Oh and this was all done with ~2.5 weeks of notice.
Before the shoot we had to do a steep 1.5 mile hike and I was worried it would be awkward or weird since we had never met in person. But we all chatted away like old friends and the hike flew by. Lauren was super easy to talk to!
Once we were at the top and finished getting ready, we had an absolute blast shooting. Lauren had a lot of great ideas and went above and beyond. She (politely) kicked other groups out of spots so we could shoot and climbed all over rocks to get the best shots. We are absolutely blown away with how the pictures turned out. She even got the "sneak peeks" to us within a few hours after the shoot even though she'd woken up at 3 AM to meet us! Absolutely amazing.
When we shared the photos with all of our friends and family we had a hugely positive response. Many tears, many people commenting on how beautiful the photos were. I even had somebody I haven't talked to in years text me saying "hey I know we haven't kept in touch but I just saw the wedding photos you posted and I just want to say they are the most beautiful wedding photos I've ever seen!" So yeah Lauren is the best and I can't recommend her highly enough!

Beyond Exceptional Photographer!

I have TOO many good things to say about Lauren Paige Photography. Not only did I choose a fabulous photographer, but I also gained a friend! She made us feel 100% comfortable and we always had a blast! We laughed and joked thru every shoot. The energy that she brings to a shoot made you feel fabulous, excited, and like you know exactly what you are doing, even though you may feel uncomfortable in front of a camera! Also, her talent is beyond words! I was extremely pleased with EVERYTHING that she sent me! Her photography is authentic, beautiful, timeless and really captures the moment and true emotion from the day! She drove up to Maryland and shot our engagement photos, bridal shoot, dinner rehearsal, and wedding! Her professionalism, organization, and knowledge about how to organize a huge group was flawless. She was very clear, organized, direct and made sure every shot we asked for was taken. That is not an easy job and I was very impressed with her ability to “herd cats.” I wouldn’t have wanted anyone else as my photographer! She also was a huge help in making my canvas and photo album. She made suggestions and made sure everything was perfect in both. She was easy to work with and gave 100% to everything she does. Thank you Lauren Paige Photography for being the best photographer I could have ever asked for!

Simply the best!

Lauren is an absolutely AMAZING photographer, and we could not be more in love with our engagement and wedding photos!!! My husband and MOH are professional wedding photographers themselves (though they were a bit busy for our wedding day!) so we had high standards when looking for photographers, and Lauren nailed it. We didn't make it easy on her, our engagement photos ended up being in the pouring rain and our wedding photos were on a very windy beach day, and she kept on smiling for every second of it despite the weather. She is super friendly and a pleasure to work with, creative and thorough in all of her photos, and she will go above and beyond to get the perfect photo, even if that means lying on the floor to get a different angle. I can't recommend Lauren enough!!!

Lauren was absolutely amazing to work with!! She is so professional, yet also just so fun to be around. She did our engagement pictures and our wedding pictures...and they all turned out beautifully! She listens to exactly what you want, and on wedding day she has it down pat to be the most efficient while also maintaining high quality. We are so pleased with all of the pictures that we received from her. If you want a professional, high-quality, fun photographer, Lauren is the way to go!

Lauren is simply amazing at what she does. She did such a great job throughout the entire process from pre, during and post wedding. Pre wedding she did a fantastic job setting up check-ins and making sure she understood the day of timeline. She also made great recommendations. Day of, she was a complete joy to have by my side. I think the photographer is one of the biggest, if not the biggest decision as a vendor because he/she is with you during the entire day. Lauren did an amazing job at moving my family portraits along with ease and got all of the shots my family wanted. This was an area that I was slightly stressed about as my parents are divorced and I wanted to focus more on the pictures of my husband and I. She and her husband made my husband and I feel comfortable and relaxed throughout the entire process. Post wedding, my pictures are absolutely stunning. She captured the day beautifully and I've gotten so many compliments at what a fantastic job she did. Thank you so much, Lauren!

Lauren created photos for myself, my husband and my family that we will be able to treasure for the rest of our lives! We are so lucky that she was our wedding photographer! She captured our whole day completely and even some moments we didn't get to see. I would recommend Lauren to anyone who wants to have photos that they can look back on for years to come and say, "our day was perfect." Thank you so much Lauren!

I cannot say enough fantastic things about Lauren! Lauren did both our engagement photos and our wedding photos (with her husband, who is a second shooter!). Our photos turned out so beautifully, and were beyond my wildest dreams. The hubby and I are not super comfortable with cameras and photos (him in particular!), but Lauren quickly helped us break through and made the process SO fun and SO easy. She captured some incredible shots and we had so much fun doing it at the same time! I can truly say that Lauren is one of the nicest and most easy-going, and most talented people I have ever met. The photos she was able to capture are absolutely stunning, from posed photos, to impromptu ones, to silly “in the moment” photos that she captured with our wedding party and guests. Plus, an added bonus- she got the photos back to us so quickly after our engagement shoot and after our wedding itself. It is such a wonderful gift to look through all of our incredible photos that lock in time the best moments and the best memories of our life. Lauren far and away exceeded all of our expectations, and our photos turned out better than I could ever have dreamed of. If you are looking for phenomenal photos and a perfect experience, I cannot recommend Lauren Paige Photography highly enough!!

We highly recommend Lauren Paige Photography! Lauren has the ability to make anyone look and feel natural in front of the camera. She has an acute attention to details. She also has a unique ability to really capture the "story" of the wedding day and everything that was important to us!
