After seeing our best friends, Sasha and Matt's engagement photos, we knew we needed to immediately book Lauren as our own wedding photographer. Her style of photography is exactly what we envisioned for our photos and our wedding photos will always be the sweetest reminder of the most incredible day. Her turn around time for photos is unparalleled and we had our entire album of photos waiting for us right when we returned from our honeymoon- that was truly the best gift of all! Not only is Lauren incredibly talented but she is reliable, personable, fun, and the only person I could imagine trusting for something as important as capturing the best day of our lives. When planning your wedding, you soon realize that the team of vendors that you surround yourself with is everything, Not only were we so confident in Lauren but the other vendors that we worked with including the hair&makeup team and our wedding coordinator were blown away by her professionalism and level of skill and they expressed to us that they can't wait to work with her in the future! Based off of all of her previous work, we knew we would receive beautiful photos but what I didn't expect was to also gain a new friend in this experience. Lauren has a heart of gold and we can't wait for the next opportunity for Lauren to shoot our next special milestone in our lives!

"Bottom line:
Lauren is the best!"

Wow! We just got our wedding album and Lauren did an incredible job! Originally we were going to go with a more budget photographer but after the engagement shoot I wasn't that impressed so I contacted Lauren from a friend's recommendation. I am so glad I did! When shopping for photographers make sure to ask to see a full wedding album. After not being impressed with the first photographer I hired, I started reviewing full albums and I realized that while some photographers are great at shooting the posed couple shots (what you see in reviews and blogs), the remainder of the photos were not the same quality. Lauren does it all well!! She does a great job giving direction so posed photos of us and our families looked excellent, but she also did a beautiful job with candid photos, really capturing the essence of the day. I also really appreciated her true professionalism with the job. She was also incredibly prompt in responding to emails, she knew what to ask ahead of time and gave great suggestions on what to do day-of. She also came incredibly prepared for any wedding day snag! My husband prior to the first look didn't know how to put on a boutonniere along with not knowing how to fold a pocket square. She and her second shooter (also now fiance) were on it! They even had scissors since my husband's pocket was sewn shut. I also really appreciate how she was willing to move the location from Mountain View to Santa Rosa due to a change of plans due to COVID. Not sure what her range of travel is, but she was the only vendor I needed to have so it was a huge relief!

We hired Lauren for our wedding last year and had a wonderful experience from our engagement photo shoot all the way until we received our beautiful wedding album. Lauren is an extremely talented photographer and is not only exceptional in her professionally and timeliness, but her personality rivals as her best asset. Through our wedding process, we learned how intimate the relationship between couple and wedding photographer truly is. Because of this, it is important to find a photographer who allows you to feel comfortable enough to be yourself even while a camera is pointed at you. Lauren does just that. Lauren has a very calming personality and was able to make us feel comfortable enough to so we could truly in the moment while on camera. She also helped us to not look awkward in photos, which was a big plus! Thanks for that Lauren! Our wedding guests even commented on how wonderful Lauren was just because of how kind and professional she was throughout the day. As a matter of fact, my family loved Lauren so much that my younger sister (and soon to be brother-in-law) just booked her for their own wedding day! So, for anyone who is considering hiring Lauren as your photographer, we strongly encourage you to do so! Our photos turned out more authentic and beautiful than we could have ever hoped for and we owe that all to Lauren.

One of the best decisions we made during our wedding planning was hiring Lauren as our photographer! Lauren responded immediately after our initial inquiry, and every.single.time after that! Wedding planning can be overwhelming, but we knew that when we reached out to Lauren we would get an answer. We did not know where to take our engagement photos, and Lauren suggested a site that was off the beaten path, and AMAZING. She has a way off capturing light to make your photos warm and romantic. When it came to our wedding day, Lauren helped us step by step with our timeline to insure that our photos would be taken in the right lighting, but that we could also enjoy our cocktail hour and reception! Everyone in our wedding party commented about how efficient and sweet Lauren was. We truly cherish the relationship we built with Lauren and cannot wait until the next opportunity comes up to hire her again. Our home is filled with sweet and beautiful memories of such a special engagement and wedding day, thanks to Lauren’s photography. We have, and will continue to recommend her to all of our friends who are getting married, updating family photos, or just want a special photography shoot!

From the moment we met Lauren & Jared, we felt like the luckiest bride and groom to be! Joey and I had never gotten professional pictures taken and were so nervous that we would be awkward throughout our engagement shoot. Lauren & Jared quickly put us at ease as they were SO GOOD at giving direction for every shot and just made us truly have a great time! From that moment on, we always said we felt like they were our friends and that should speak to how easy going, down to earth, fun and relatable they are as individuals!
I chose Lauren based on her talent to really bring out the colors in every photo. Knowing we were doing engagement and wedding photos on the beach, that was really important to me. I am in love with our pictures so much and am forever grateful she shot the best day of our lives! Lastly, I knew we really struck gold in the photography world when three of our friends reached out to work with Lauren for their engagement/wedding photos because they just loved how ours came out! Talk about the ultimate compliment! I would HIGHLY recommend working with Lauren and her now fiancé Jared! We truly view them as friends after getting to spend extra time with them as they came all the way to Cabo to shoot our big day!
