ARTIST

"Taking pictures is savoring life intensely, every hundredth of a second. "

-Marc Riboud

I'm Lauren, an Arizona based portrait photographer. I have a wild drive to constantly create and I absolutely love how that allows me to illustrate people's stories with heart.

I want you to look back on these little rectangles of art and remember how every phase of life looked. How the dress made you feel as you twirled, how full of pride you were for graduation, how sweet the kisses felt when your kids doted on your cheeks, how strong you felt linking hands with your soul mate, and finally... how radiant the milestones of your life truly are.

I graduated with a BA in Interdisciplinary Visual Arts from the University of Washington (Go Dawgs!) where I specifically studied fine art and digital art. From there, I became a desert dweller and earned my Master's in Elementary Education. I'm currently a full-time art teacher and full-time photographer.

I have spent countless hours learning, crafting, and curating my photographic approach and aesthetic. All of my sessions are play-based! This means I might have you frolicking in the desert, playing ring around the rosey, and lovin' on your spouse. It's genuine and authentic emotion that's captured in a beautiful composition and artistically edited.

If you want someone to adventure with,

laugh with,

play with,

and have a rad time with...

I'm your girl.

Reach out to me so we can connect.

Remember, it's all about you, your circle, and making the right now last for ever.

Let's make some magic!
