Working with Lauren was SO incredibly easy. Lauren is an absolute gem. She's not only a beautiful human, but a talented and kind photographer. Her patience and ability to pull children out of their shell is unmatched. I loved working with and watching her work. 10/10 recommend!

I love working with Lauren! I love seeing her point of view on things and how she was able to help me prepare for our session. Lauren, I love your energy. I'm so glad I found you online. I just want to thank you so much!!

Every time we book a session with Lauren, she welcomes us with open arms, helps us feel comfortable, and reassured us that she wants us to just be ourselves. And let me tell you, those pictures do not disappoint!! I fall in love with them every single time. I highly recommend working with Lauren, can't wait for our next session!

The photos look great...and I was telling my people how this is the most ME and comfortable I've ever felt getting my photos taken. Thanks so much for creating that atmosphere!

I heard you're looking for authentic family photos that portray the love (and the teasing, laughter, + sass) between you all!&nbsp; Whether you want to play at a beach, have a paint fight, go for a hike, or build a pillow fort at home, I'm ready to document these moments for you and your family. If you have a vision for this session, I'm all ears. Or maybe you know you want unique, memorable images of you and your littles, but you have no idea what you'd like to do for your session. That's okay! I can toss ideas your way, or we can brainstorm up a session plan that's just right for your family. This package is perfect for families who dread the stock family photos and would much rather bring along the photographer (hi, that's me!) on their next family adventure.

Family Photo Session - 60 Min

This quick + breezy session is perfect for couples who want beautiful photos, but don't always have the time, energy, or budget for a full session! ...Or for those of us who often have to drag our significant others to a photoshoot. This works great for them, too! 😉 During our 30 minutes together, I will be capturing how you and your partner(s) normally interact with each other. I'll throw in a few poses, but mostly I'm going to be prompting you with silly ideas and documenting the mayhem that comes out of that. You're welcome.

Capturing the In-Between Moments with Candid Photography

Video Title

Write in this style: friendly, casual, teasing gently as a close friend might.

Here is a social media caption (that I wrote) that captures my brand's voice:

The key to beautiful, meaningful photos ↓

that has the biggest impact on your photo session.

✨ CONNECTION ✨

Here’s what I like to tell my clients:

When there’s a space, fill it.

*Ironically, I don’t believe I mentioned this to @shaylee_usher during her family session. I was too busy berating her husband (yknow…nicely) 🙊*

But let’s get back to it - what does that even mean, to fill the space?

If you’re standing by someone - your partner, your child, your friend, whoever - and there’s space left between the two of you…fill it.

Yeah, you’re gonna be all up in each other’s business.

And it’s gonna be ADORABLE.

You might even find it enjoyable 👀

The second suggestion I give to my clients is to always be doing something with their hands.

BEFORE YOU PANIC - here’s what I mean:

While you’re filling that empty space, grab the hand of the person next to you. Play with your child’s hair. Wrap your arms around your partner. “Fix” your clothing. Run a hand through your hair. Just…keep those hands busy!

If you’ve ever asked yourself (or your photographer!), “but what should I do with my hands?” this tip will help calm those thoughts, too. Just (consensually 🤪) grab onto the person next to you. Bam. YA DID IT, GOLD STAR ⭐️

Not only do these tips keep your mind off of “what the hell am I supposed to be doing,” they also give you time with your family to just…feel the feels. To get close, without worrying about switching over the laundry or picking up the toys. To be present in the moment and allow yourself to enjoy being around those you love.

To make fun of your partner with your photographer. You know, the simple things in life 😆

Save this post for later so you can refer back to it before your next family photo session!
