HI, I’M LAUREN
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.
Over a Decade Capturing Moments with Luxury Destination Wedding Photography
As a high-end destination wedding photographer with more than a decade of experience, I specialize in capturing the emotions and moments that make every love story unique. My work focuses on documenting authentic luxury wedding experiences, from intimate events in Paris to grand celebrations in Lake Como and beyond.
Influenced by my travels to over 15 countries and 100 cities, I bring inspiration from diverse cultures and people into every photograph I take.
I strive to create timeless images that blend fashion-forward editorial style with fine art wedding photography, incorporating movement, light, and emotion.
Whether you're celebrating a luxury resort wedding in Mexico or a chic ceremony in NYC, my top priority is to guide you through the entire process with ease. My goal is to ensure that each image reflects the energy, ambiance, and authenticity of your day—so you can look back on your memories with joy.

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 every celebration with me. Are you obsessed with drone shots? Vidal is our drone master, capturing aerial magic at every luxury wedding we shoot.
When we aren’t traveling the world for destination weddings, you can find us hanging on the couch in our townhouse or under an umbrella at the beach with our dog, Isla. Don’t worry, my mom takes care of her while we’re gone. Miami is our perfect home base—and an ideal launch point for weddings across the globe.
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.
