Hi, I’m Lauren and I’m so grateful you have stopped in

I’m a gal with a creative eye that’s not traditional or fit to the mold of your standard photographer. I see art in everything, and the human form and expression is one of my favorite subjects. I work with people who come to me wanting something more out of their photographs, than just showing up to get that one “picture perfect” photograph.

I’ve been running around with a camera for practically my whole life, and pursuing this as my business for over 7 years now. I’ve truly honed in on who I am as an artist and regularly am working between photography and painting to continue to grow my creative abilities.

why pick me?

 
When you choose to work with me, it wont be about coming to smile in front of my camera.  I work with people who are moldable,  willing to open up, be original, free-spirited and willing to trust my vision to create something even they haven’t seen before. 

Most have no experience, but leave feeling truly excited about the art we just made.

THE MOUNTAINS ARE ONE OF MY FAVORITE PLACES TO BE

what am I inspired by?

I’m inspired by human expression, connection, mannerisms, and the Mondain of Everyday life. The way the sun hits your skin, how the earth and its seasons are always changing, a grassy hill, the blue sky, dirty bare feet, the way your passionate about something you love, and just the simple act of living. Inspiration comes to me at all times, and I’m constantly putting things in my back pocket so that I can create art. All that I need is someone that is ready to trust my creative vision. 

I WILL BE THE FIRST TO ADMIT THAT I AM IN FACT A “CRAZY PLANT LADY”.

most importantly, my why..

I’m a mom to two daughters, two sweet pups, way to many chickens and wife to an amazingly supportive husband who allows me to live this dream daily. Together we both run our own businesses, and pursue the life God has for us. Thankfully people like you who stumble upon my work take a chance with me, and allow me to pursue this creative lifestyle that I’m so passionate about. Are you ready to take the next step into a one of a kind experience and lasting relationship?
