About

Wedding photography for the refined, yet relaxed couple.

GRATEFULLY SERVING ANNAPOLIS, MARYLAND, WASHINGTON DC, THE EAST COAST, & BEYOND

What started off as a hobby quickly turned into a passion and a major-change in college. Photography was something I fell in love with as a means to capture moments that can’t be repeated... the ones laced with joy. These are the stories that can be re-lived and remembered with a simple glance. What started off as something that seemingly fell into my lap, has turned into one of the greatest joys of my life. I’m honored to have traveled the country to serve couples and their families in capturing such special seasons of celebration in their lives together.

The BEST Photographer

What can we say about Lauren! Her photos speak for themselves and perfectly captured our special day! Lauren was an absolute dream to work with and made us laugh and feel so comfortable as we took photos! We couldn't have picked a more perfect photographer for our wedding! Thank you!

One of our best wedding decisions

Like every newly engaged couple, we were faced with a million decisions to make. Lauren was one of the best decisions we made. She captured the energy and every beautiful emotion of our wedding day. She seamlessly corralled our family into group shots and efficiently shot gorgeous portraits so we could maximize the time spent with our guests. Lauren brings the energy and warmth that you want to be around all wedding day and we feel so thankful to have had her as part of our day.

Obsessed. Dreamy Photography and the Loveliest Human

To say that we are obsessed with Lauren's work (and her, in general) is an understatement.

Our photographer was one of the most important choices we made during the wedding process. We wanted images that felt natural, airy, colorful (but not oversaturated), joyful, and could hang in our home for decades, which we knew was no small order. My husband and I each culled through dozens of photographers in the Annapolis/DC/Baltimore area and independently made our top three list. Lauren was number one for both of us. When we reached out, we were ever so hopeful that she would be available, and would be as lovely in-person as she seemed online (the Ted Lasso of weddings?!).

Again, even with very high expectations, Lauren far exceeded them. Lauren was flexible, warm, joyful, and professional as we approached our wedding day. Instead of an engagement shoot (we are located in Colorado), Lauren was willing to photograph our intimate wedding ceremony in downtown Annapolis the day prior to our main reception. The first time we met her in person felt like seeing an old friend...which was exactly what this camera shy bride and groom needed! At our large reception, several guests commented how lovely Lauren and her assistant were. They were unobtrusive yet captured all of our special moments and made everyone feel at ease.

After the wedding, Lauren continued to be very communicative. She shared previews via email and on Instagram, mailed us a gorgeous set of prints (ribbon and handwritten note included), and put together a gorgeous wedding album, which she worked with us to refine and perfect.

As we told Lauren, our only complaint is that she lives so far away, as we are sad to say farewell to her as our wedding season comes to an end. Of all the vendors we worked with, Lauren left the greatest impact. We cannot recommend her highly enough.
