Hello, I’m Lauren

For over 17 years, I’ve been capturing life’s authentic moments through a natural, documentary-style approach that lets your true story shine. My journey began with a passion for photography at age 15, leading to a degree in photojournalism from Syracuse University. I’ve traveled the world, documenting human stories in dynamic environments and photographing high-profile figures like Grammy-winning artists, former Presidents, and actors.

While those experiences shaped my craft, my heart lies in capturing the beauty of everyday life—portraits, family gatherings, and the moments that matter most. Whether working with digital, 35mm film, or 6k video, I bring a photojournalist’s eye for detail and storytelling to every session. I’m also a skilled retoucher, enhancing your images with care while preserving their natural beauty.

Based in Washington, DC, I’m available to travel wherever your story takes us.
