my name is lauren and i love to take photos!
I'm a PhD student and portrait photographer located in Western New York! I was born and raised in Atlanta, GA and love traveling all along the East Coast to do my part to make sure that your most treasured memories and important life events are captured. Photography has been my favorite and most rewarding hobby and passion for more than seven years now, and I'm excited to share that excitement with you during our session!

read what clients have said about their sessions
"She is so talented, number one, but she's also patient, highly experienced, and never made me feel awkward in front of the camera. Lauren is great about directing poses and finding awesome lighting quickly - I really feel like she got as many awesome shots in as possible in the time we had together."
"Lauren has a great eye and enjoys creative shots to capture the best moments. Above all, her energy is infectious and makes you feel natural to eliminate awkward posing."
"We appreciated that she asked us if we had any ideas or things we wanted a few days before our session, and our session had just the right balance of Lauren's staging and spontaneity."
"She works quickly and effectively to maximize the good shots and is flexible enough to work around bumps in the plan. Her ability to capture candids at the perfect moment is second to none."
"Lauren was very accommodating to each of the ideas I wanted to do and also came prepared with her own. The direction she gave was very helpful, especially since I wasn't sure going in exactly how to pose for each location. The photos turned out amazing!"
