Book A Session

An experience you'll love as much as your images

 

At the beginning of sessions, I often have parents apologetically tell me that their young children are “a handful” and “probably won’t behave.” 𝘛𝘩𝘢𝘵’𝘴 𝘰𝘬𝘢𝘺; I have no expectation that wiggly toddlers will suddenly become still in the presence of my camera. Besides, we’re not aiming for stiff-looking portraits. Instead, we’re shooting for images that show your connection as a family. The sweet shot of a mother and child snuggling happens while they’re spinning in circles. The shot of a toddler giggling with glee in his father’s arms happens during a game of airplane. The siblings shot happens while they compete to make the silliest noises. And the all-important family portrait happens in between rounds of 1, 2, 3 – blast off! Kids play, and to create the most opportune environment for your session, let’s play right along with them.

Oh, hi there!

 

Becoming a photographer was my way of making sure I didn’t miss the opportunity to document my children’s first years. I want to help you preserve your family’s all-too-fleeting details, too.

Client Love Notes

“I could not be happier with how our family pictures turned out! Lauren did an amazing job capturing the candid moments that truly show my kids’ personalities and her patience with children made the session fun and relaxing. I know I’ll look back on these pictures fondly forever!”

“Lauren did a fantastic job photographing our family. She was so nice to work with, knew how to direct us, kept things moving along and was flexible with our high-energy toddler. She captured some spontaneous moments and her use of lighting showed her talent. The whole session flowed well and wrapped up before we knew it. I would definitely recommend her to others looking for a quality family photographer.”

“Lauren was absolutely wonderful and so talented. My 3 year old is terribly shy, yet she managed to make him comfortable and smile many times to capture beautiful photos. She is warm and accommodating, and lovely to work with. The poses she was able to get my son to do and the looks he gave us truly captured what we love in him. I can’t recommend her enough!”

Lauren was great to work with and she captured so many adorable pictures of my 1 year old. She had excellent communication before, during, and following the photo shoot, making it a very easy-going and fun experience. I would definitely recommend her!
