Planning an elopement or wedding day can feel overwhelming. Where to start, what vendors to hire, or even how to choose the perfect location or venue.
That’s where I come in! I’m not just here to deliver stunning photos; I’m also your guide, helping you navigate the details and create an unforgettable, stress-free experience that’s authentically you.
These days, your wedding doesn’t have to follow any rules. It’s all about celebrating you and your love story. Whether it’s an intimate day for just the two of you or a joyful gathering with your closest friends and family, your wedding should reflect what matters most to you. Forget the stress of trying to please everyone or orchestrating a big production if that’s not your vibe. Consider this your official permission slip to create a day that’s completely, unapologetically yours.
I’m here to capture your story in the most natural and authentic way possible. Having lived my whole life in the Pacific Northwest, I bring extensive local knowledge to every shoot, helping you find those hidden gems and breathtaking spots. I love getting to know the people I photograph, and I have a deep appreciation for the raw, real moments. I can't wait to help tell your story!
"Lauren was absolutely INCREDIBLE to work with and if we could give 1000 stars on this review, we would.
My fiancée and I felt comfortable with every step of the process - Lauren went above and beyond with assisting us in planning the location, to capturing both candid moments and romantic poses, and providing responsiveness in communication.
The photos were perfection and we couldn’t be happier with the results. Also, as a LGBTQ+ couple, we felt very comfortable and safe. 10/10 experience!!!"

"We had such a wonderful experience working with Lauren for our adventure elopement!
She has such an easy going personality and energy that made us feel comfortable and relaxed behind the camera. We were looking for someone who would also be up for a bit of a hike and she was stoked to be a part of it. Not to mention the pictures were beautiful! We just moved from the PNW and will forever treasure the moments she was able to capture for us on the coast.
There are countless photographers out there, we are so glad we found Lauren."

"Lauren was an absolute joy to work with! She is patient, kind, compassionate, and most of all, an amazing photographer!!!
My husband and I have never had photos taken of us, but we very quickly felt so at ease working with Lauren. Not only was she great with us, but with our family. She spoke to everyone with kindness and guidance. She helped us find locations that worked for us, and has extensive knowledge of the area we were eloping. She answered any and all questions we had in a very timely manner and with understanding.
I could not recommend Lauren enough!"
