“I want a
Sunday kind of love,
Breakfast in bed kind of love,
Kissing your back in the morning kind of love,
Watching movies in your arms kind of love,
Laughing until my sides hurt kind of love,
Smiling at the thought of you kind of love,
An authentic kind of love,
A trusting kind of love,
A bestfriend kind of love,
And I’ll-never-let-you-go kind of love,
A I-wish-you-were-here kind of love,
A happy kind of love.”
…and I want to capture it all. This next step is all about you and the kind of love you two wish to share, and you deserve these moments to be remembered exactly how they happened.
“Lauren is just what every bride wants in their photographer! When my now husband & I got engaged, Lauren being our photographer was the one thing we were certain of during our wedding planning process. She has perfectly captured how our love has grown over the past 4 years. She reminded us to soak everything in & never rushed us. She was amazing with our family & friends & perfectly captured all the joy we felt that day. She is the most kind-hearted individual I have ever had the pleasure of meeting.”
“"Wow, there are not enough words to say how sweet and kind and flexible Lauren was throughout the two year long process of making our wedding happen. She made the changes from covid less stressful and then gave us beautiful photos from our engagement session, to our elopement in the woods to our actual reception a year later. I think having a photographer who puts you at ease and makes you feel comfortable when taking photos is not your thing is such a blessing! Can't say enough good things about her!!”
“We originally had her booked for our venue, when my fiancé’s father got covid… We had to reschedule and Lauren was the most understanding and flexible vender we worked with! She offered her prayers, which meant a ton to us, and gave us other options! We ended up eloping... I was worried the pictures would not be as good… but when we got the preview back— I cried!! I would recommend Lauren over any other photographer I have ever worked with! If she is not available, change the day so she can be there!”
“Honestly there aren't enough words to describe how much we adore Lauren as a photographer! She did our engagement photos and also our wedding day, and the photos were stunning! Not only is she an absolute joy to be around day of, but she also makes sure to capture the most gorgeous moments. We love our wedding photos - thank you so so much Lauren! You are amazing!”
“Lauren was such a blessing to work with! She genuinely wanted our special day to be the best day possible. I appreciated her desire to capture moments that were most special for us and talking with me about the vision I had in mind (which she captured beautifully). She was very organized and and self sufficient throughout the entire process. I am beyond grateful for the calmness, efficiency, and positivity she provided on our big day and I cannot say more good things about her!”
“We hired Lauren for our original wedding plan... then COVID happened. We decided to change our wedding & move it up 2 months making it much more intimate, backyard wedding. Her dedication to supporting us & making sure that we didn't miss a moment of our day truly meant everything to us. I cannot even describe Lauren's kindness & presence. Everyone at our wedding raved about how attentive & nice she was. And I quote, 'If you were hugging or dancing with someone, she was right there to take the picture.'”
“Lauren was not only the sweetest and most kind person to work with but, she was so flexible. We ended up having to change our wedding time 1 day prior and Lauren rolled with it. She was friendly and fun to work with. I would highly suggest her for your wedding or even family photos.”
“Lauren has been incredible. She went above and beyond to give us everything we wanted... She was very professional, so sweet and helpful. Her pictures are stunning and every single person who attended the wedding was so pleased and excited because she made EVERYONE look amazing. She is so talented and such a steal, everyone should book her now before she becomes the next BIG thing in wedding photography. So pleased and will be recommending Lauren to all our friends!”
“Lauren is a hidden gem. Not only is she incredibly talented, but she is the sweetest little lady. Lauren did our engagement photos initially, and we knew immediately we needed her to do our wedding. She did an amazing job and started with me on our wedding day at 9am all the way to 11pm that night. So incredible that she dedicates everything she has to her work. And it really shows. We will be using her for all of our photography needs in the area forevermore.”
“Lauren was very kind, detailed and super patient with us. We originally had planned to go to Oneonta Gorge but unfortunately the trail was closed because of a recent wildfire. Lauren came to the rescue and offered us several options and other locations. We were absolutely satisfied. We went to a beautiful waterfall and took amazing sunset pictures. It was every couples dream. Couldn’t ask for better engagement photos. We were so grateful for Lauren to capture our special day in a raw and free spirited way.”
“Lauren is an excellent photographer, and really captured the love between me and my husband! We had never posed for photos before, but Lauren made us feel so comfortable and told us exactly how to pose, that by the end we were just wrapped up in the fun and the beauty of the Oregon Coast! Lauren has an eye for detail and really captures the love between couples. Our photos turned out beautifully and we even made one into a big canvas above our bed. I would highly recommend her for all of your photo needs.”
“Lauren is wonderful! She is well priced, professional, and produces AMAZING photos. She is easy to communicate with, willing to travel (she traveled for ours, we paid her for travel and lodging but it was WELL WORTH IT!). You’ll have your wedding photos forever, so you might as well INVEST in quality. She is willing to do whatever you ask! She’s the best! BOOK HER & you won’t be sorry.”
“Lauren was absolutely amazing while taking our engagement photos! She made us feel so comfortable and made the entire experience fun. She was very flexible with the date and area that we were looking for and she was able to improvise when our initial destination was too snowy to get to! The photos turned our perfect... For our wedding she was so flexible and so helpful during the entire process and it made my life so much easier!”
“Lauren was sweet, flexible, and an overall joy to work with. One of the main reasons we chose Lauren, was for her tentative eye to capture magical moments candidly... and she did not disappoint! She captured precious moments throughout the day of my husband and I that we did not realize others even saw. She gave great directions during our wedding portraits and captured our personalities and the dynamic of our relationship perfectly. I am so glad we found Lauren and would recommend her in a heartbeat!”
“Lauren was absolutely the best to work with. She's super sweet and has such a calm demeanor that made both my fiancé and myself feel so comfortable during our photoshoot. She let us be our dorky selves which made our pictures completely reflect us as a couple. I highly recommend her if in Oregon. We can't wait to go back for our first wedding anniversary to take pictures all over again, but this time in our wedding attire. We are absolutely grateful for our experience and to have met her.”
