If you're looking for a photographer who is:

intentional


photos that make you FEEL something. my job is to pay attention to sentimental, in-between moments. laugh out loud, ugly (or cute) cry, and hug your loved ones! don't be afraid to display raw emotions, these make for the best photos!

TIMELESS


my color profiles are clean, and true to color! your venue choice, outfit selections, and decor selections are all important for setting the tone (literally) for your day! I hand select and re-touch each photo, keep them true to color and timeless.





CANDID


sit back, relax, and soak up your day! laugh and enjoy your day with your friends, family, and honey- I'll be there to capture as much as I can! I am happy to prompt and direct when needed, making you feel comfortable and at ease in front of the camera.

then you're in the right place

“Lauren was absolutely our DREAM photographer! After finding her work on instagram and our initial conversations, I knew she would be the perfect fit for the fun, exciting and colorful day we were planning. We really wanted our vendors to match our energy and excitement and Lauren went above and beyond. We would absolutely recommend her 100000x!"

KIND WORDS

from real clients

We hired Lauren as our wedding photographer at our June 2023 wedding in Sonoma. From the moment we met Lauren, we knew we found a photographer who would take the care and attention we so hoped for our special day. Our venue was a private estate in Sebastopol, and she visited the site in advance to scope out the best photo locations. She was an amazing sounding board throughout the day, and made me and my family so comfortable throughout our family photos. As the bride and groom, you end up spending more time with the photographer than you might think, and her bright spirit and laughter just added to the joy of the day.


Our photos turned out amazing - she truly captured every special moment. She was amazing throughout and easily our best wedding vendor. We cannot recommend Lauren enough.
