HI, I’M LAUREN

MEET THE ARTIST

MY STORY

My ultimate goal is for you to not just see the images, but to truly feel the story they tell. Every love story is different.
It's my job to showcase the most authentic version of you. Not only do I want you to feel comfortable, but I truly want to encapsulate the energy and ambiance of your event by incorporating the use of movement, light, and editorial portraiture.

With over a decade in the industry,
I have found myself falling in love with moments, emotion, and light.

As a high-end destination wedding photographer with more than a decade of experience, I am passionate about capturing the emotions and moments that make each couple's love story feel truly alive in each photograph that I take. My photography style has been influenced by my travels to over 15 countries and 100 cities, where I have gained inspiration from diverse cultures and people. I believe in building a connection with my clients to capture their most authentic selves. I maintain communication from signing of contract to album retrieval.

My fascination with the art of editorial and fashion photography has led me to document weddings with a refined eye. I truly emphasize my client's energy and wedding day ambiance. As an artist, I approach my craft searching for different lights, textures, and emotion. Creating something with you, I strive for a top-of-the-line experience from start to finish. It is my priority to guide you, so you feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera.

The Primer

Artist. Dog mom.
In love with the drone guy.

I'm lucky enough to have my favorite guy, Vidal, come along for the ride and document each celebration with me. Are you obsessed with our drone shots? Vidal is our drone master! When we aren't traveling the world for weddings, you can find us chilling on the couch in our townhome or under an umbrella on the beach with our dog, Isla. Don't worry, my mom takes care of her when we're gone. Miami's airport is the perfect home base.

What I'm

loving

My family (obviously), 35mm film,
Le Labo The Noir 29, an oatmilk cappucino (preferably from a mom & pop shop), clothing that's elevated yet funky, pilates, exploring new places, photographing people in love.

What I'm

learning

Anything and everything, including myself (shoutout to my therapist).

What I'm

known for

Getting all the good angles. Directing!!! My energy while documenting your day (humble brag). Playing with light. Proper composition. Deep black and whites. Allowing people to slip back into their moments with photos that make you feel like you were there.
