Dear August Photography is more than a name - it's a love letter to the fleeting beauty of life. Named after my son, August, this work is rooted in a deep appreciation for moments that move us - the ones that pass quickly but stay with us forever.
Time is always moving, and memories tend to blur. But photographs? They let us hold on just a little longer. I specialize in capturing candid, emotive imagery - the kind that feels like a memory and looks like art. Whether it's the quiet in-between glances or loud belly laughs, I'm here to document what's real and beautiful about your story.
If you believe the little things are actually the big things, you're in the right place. I would be honored to capture your special moments!!
Let's create something meaningful together.

Founder
Hi, I'm Lauren - the photographer behind Dear August Photography. Based in Southern California, I specialize in capturing love stories through timeless, candid, and emotion-filled imagery. My business is named after my baby boy, August, who inspires me daily to see beauty in the fleeting and the ordinary.
I believe your wedding day should be remembered not just for how it looked, but how it FELT. From the quiet in-between moments to the big celebrations, my goal is to create photos that feel as heartfelt and genuine as your love story - preserving memories that you'll cherish for a lifetime.
