Lauren Carroll Photography

wal. Lauren was very fair and up front about pricing and worked with our time frame for the day. We told her exactly what we wanted for the day - lots of family portraits, mostly candids, and a few solo shots for myself and my husband. We had a phone call with her a few days before the party and we reiterated everything we wanted, plus she said because she was pregnant she’d bring a second shooter at no extra charge. It was wonderful having two photographers to capture everything. The pictures turned out so wonderfully and her turn-around from the party was insanely fast. Less than two weeks, I believe. The editing was beautiful and none of the dancing pictures were blurry, even in a dim room with everyone dancing! I cannot recommend her enough!

al moments, but our unique personalities and quirks as well. She took the time to get to know us and what we wanted beforehand, so when it came time for the big day, she was fully entrusted to capture what was important to us. And she delivered! The sweetest part of it all was how she delivered sneak peaks THE NEXT DAY - what couple WOULDN'T want that! It helped us celebrate/post a few snapshots for family and friends who couldn't make it almost immediately. We are so grateful!

Her and her second shooter Katie were literally everywhere on our wedding day, capturing the big things and the sweet in between moments when you think no one is watching. It made for exceptional photos and a highlight film that I cannot stop watching and crying over. I am so so thankful for her talent, expertise, and professionalism. I absolutely love reliving the best day of my life through her photos and video. She is worth every single penny and I would book her over and over.

t capturing your day in such a beautiful, authentic way. Having these photos to look back on is worth more than I can put into words. She did such a marvelous job and was also such a bright and cheery presence throughout the day. She's the best of the best!

red all the great shots! The photos were so great, several of our vendors have used them! You will not be disappointed!

eally helps to make photos fun but also more comfortable and GORGEOUS! She has a talent for lighting and really knows how to catch a moment. I mean, seriously, even the pictures of our food looked AMAZING. Her packages are very reasonably priced and she is worth every penny and more! We got about 300-400 photos from our wedding and there are legitimately like 250 fantastic ones and the rest are superb too. We ordered a wedding album and it has taken us over 8 months to try to narrow it down to less than 100 photos! She is fantastic, and although we didn't have her do a lifestyle shoot, her videography skills are top notch too. Highly recommend following her on Instagram to get a feel for her work. She is an artist!

e does it with a warm heart and smile. We love Lauren and we have only spent 9 hours with her. My whole family felt the same way, my dad still talks about looking over at Lauren and seeing her laugh and cry with us throughout the day. And all of this was BEFORE I saw the beautiful pictures she captured, moments that we will be able to cherish forever because of her.

yone feel so much at ease the day of! I can’t express how beautiful our photos turned out! I’m so pleased! I would recommend Lauren to everyone looking for a photographer!!

many articles that strongly encouraged the investment, I truly think I found the best photographer! Lauren was great from the start, very excited to work at my wedding and be a part of the day. She made me feel special from the very beginning. Our engagement photos were beautiful and perfect! On the wedding day she was very organized and had planned for all the family photos we needed. We got those out of the way quickly and spent time capturing fun, unique shots with our party and as a couple. It was a perfect mix of fun, stylish, and traditional shots. She really captured the entire day, the emotion behind it and the pure party of the reception! All my guests and friends have been raving about my photos, asking for copies, and saying everyone single picture is amazing. I agree!!!!!! Lauren has a true vision and talent for capturing special moments. Looking back at the photos I get to see all the elements of the wedding day that made if perfect. Plus Lauren is just supper fun, warm, and a great person to have around on one the biggest days of your life.

and to photograph our rehearsal dinner. She made us feel so comfortable throughout all of our sessions and all of our pictures are natural and feel like us. We chose her because we loved the style and aesthetic of her work. Nothing is overly posed or awkward, and we have so many amazing candid shots from our wedding and reception of us and our guests. She has a great turnaround time and we have so many amazing photos to remember our wedding by!

one so relaxed and comfortable for all the photos. I cannot wait to see all of our pictures!

ne, I could tell that she would be such a calming and sweet presence on my wedding day. I was so right! When storms ruined our Plan A for pictures, Lauren came through and found us a perfect location to take portraits. Our pictures perfectly encapsulate our day, and every time I look at them I feel like I am right back in the moment. Lauren's great personality, professionalism, and talent make her a wonderful option for your wedding photographer!

l and personable, creative, has great style, friendly and sweet but also efficient. You hardly knew she was there (which is what you want in a photographer!) as she blended in seamlessly with the guests while getting the perfect shots. She made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera, and let us be natural with each other instead of posing us awkwardly, which resulted in some amazing photos! So many of our guests came up to us throughout the night and told us how much they enjoyed having her there and couldn't wait for the photos! She also sent us a preview of them on our honeymoon which was such a nice touch. You will not regret hiring her, as she becomes your friend- not just your photographer! We couldn't have asked for anyone better to be such an important part of our wedding day and we are so thankful we hired her! Thank you so much Lauren!!

at ease. My husband who hates pictures even commented how he enjoyed the experience with Lauren. Just tell her what you like and trust the expert! You will not regret it! I Still go look at my pictures all the time!

with and made us all feel comfortable in front of the camera. I have already recommended her to other brides for their wedding!

gement and wedding photos! We cannot wait to have another life event for her to photograph!! I would recommend her to anyone and everyone!!!

ear later I look back at this pictures with pure joy! They are perfect. They captured every aspect of my wedding perfect. She was the sweetest! I could not be anymore please or in love with my wedding pictures and bridal a than I am!

gement photos and wedding and we were blown away with the final results. Highly recommend!

y of your day. We did not want to do an engagement or bridal shoot, so she graciously offered to just add an extra hour of shooting to our wedding day instead. It was perfect! She made sure she knew what we wanted and needed in the lead up to the wedding. On the big day she was on time, professional, and fun! I have never felt more beautiful and special than when she and the other photographer Ryan would tell me how great the photos were turning out, and how lovely I looked. My husband and I felt like rock stars! My bridesmaid even said to her, “Where were you for my wedding!” All brides want their pictures right away, and the week after our wedding I was already getting some sneak peek pictures from her to start posting and sharing with friends and family. I am looking forward to seeing the rest, and know they will turn out beautifully!

started doing her thing. She was low key and present for every moment. She captured the Key West vibe and our wedding day so beautifully. I am so glad I hired Lauren for my destination wedding! She even had a sneak peek posted the morning after and had the rest finished within the month! The quality was stunning. I wouldn't have changed a thing. Hire her!!!

ar and didn't have to worry one bit about our photos. She is a lovely person, punctual and professional. The quality of the photos were more than I could have ever hoped for - wonderful candids of my husband and I, our friends and family. I would recommend her to anyone.

e fool you or put you off. Have already recommend to others.

e with a second photographer and started snapping photos right away. We were running behind and Lauren was so sweet to make sure we left the hotel in time to get to the ceremony, joking that she wouldn't tell me the time because she knew I would panic with how late we were! Lauren and Catherine have great personalities and helped my husband and I (not big picture takers) feel comfortable the whole time. Our guests commented all night with how fun they were and how they fit right in with our friends and family. The pictures are AMAZING! They have such a warm, genuine, professional yet laid-back quality to them and I feel so blessed to have such great mementos of our wedding day. She was the perfect photographer for our day!

organizing groups and getting through family and group shots quickly-- never sacrificing quality. She's bubbly, energetic and does whatever it takes to get the perfect shot!

able to capture our day in the way I'd always hoped. I can honestly say, she went above and beyond. Her photos captured details, intimate moments, and personalities PERFECTLY!!! She was such a trooper taking portrait photos of our huge bridal party in 101 degree weather (she didn't complain once!). Lauren also has a very quick turn-around time; it took us a little under a month to get all pictures back from the wedding! For her pricing, quality of work, and personable personality, Lauren is someone you would be crazy not to hire. :) Absolute pleasure working with her!

olerated my impatient personality! I couldn't be more pleased and satisfied with the photographs from my wedding. She also did my engagements and bridals. I took bridals in City Park in New Orleans. Lauren is the sweetest person and has a talent that I couldn't find anywhere else. She captures all the details and candid moments! She's amazing. To Lauren: Thank you so much for making my wedding day an even more memorable day and for all the patience you had with me!!

! She is dedicated, passionate, and a master of her craft! Her ability to capture a moment is incredible. She was professional, yet relaxed and made me feel comfortable. We will continue to hire her for all of our future photography needs. Thank you for all you've done of us on our special day!

re and ease to work with. You always made me feel so comfortable and beautiful. Your work truly shows your talent and your love for capturing those special moments. I will always cherish my bridal portraits and wedding albums. You have made the happiest bride ever!! Thank you again :)

re to work with. I HIGHLY recommend Lauren. You will not be disappointed :) So so happy Lauren was our photographer!!!!!

wedding photos to arrive. She has a very beautiful natural style and makes everyone feel very comfortable. Daniel and Catherine are also a dream and do incredible work. If you want timeless, romantic, and beautiful photos with an artistic edge, absolutely go with Lauren Carroll Photography. I have so many fantastic photos I have no idea how I will narrow them down to pick out the printed album. Lauren has such a positive spirit and ease of collaborating that it has been wonderful to work with her.

I knew Lauren was the perfect person to capture such a big moment in our lives. We are from out of state and had to hire Lauren purely off of her website and one phone call, and it was the best decision we made when planning our wedding. My husband and I are both a bit camera shy and she made our engagement shoot so easy and relaxed. On our wedding day, Lauren made everyone feel comfortable. It was like having a friend at out wedding who just happened to take amazing photographs. She was so stealth during the ceremony, I didn't even remember seeing her, and yet when I received all of our photos, she got incredible shots like she was right there next to us. On top of being so easy-going and friendly, she also takes the most beautiful photographs I have ever seen. Thank you Lauren for being a part of such an important day in our lives!

e time. Neither of us are big "picture people," so Lauren guided us through everything that needed to be done. I'm very detail oriented and sent Lauren a LOT of emails, she responded to all of them promptly and helped me think about photo needs I hadn't even thought of! Lauren and her second shooter, Daniel (also totally awesome), felt like old friends when they did bridal party shots. It made our entire group very comfortable and resulted in such beautiful shots! In addition to being affordable, organized, super sweet, and helpful, Lauren has an amazing eye and captured our wedding perfectly. I would LOVE to work with her again in the future!

folios before choosing Lauren! Her style is so soft, romantic, and special, and she did a great mix of posed and candid photos for us. Not only is she an amazing photographer, but she is also very professional and easy to work with. She was very flexible and understanding even as my wedding plans changed during my engagement. She is also easy to get in touch with, and she kept in contact frequently both before and after the wedding. My husband and I LOVE all of the photos that she took of both our engagement session at Audubon Park and our wedding at Tomas Bistro. Lauren was calm and friendly throughout the wedding day, and she managed to capture so many special moments without being intrusive at all. She took so many beautiful pictures of my husband and me that the hardest part is choosing our favorites! I would highly recommend Lauren as a wedding photographer!

s able to capture so many beautiful moments on our day. Lauren was our photographer on our wedding day. She also shot our engagement photos at Audubon Park and my bridal photos at Greenwood Plantation. She is extremely fun and easy to work with. She was easy to reach and talk to throughout the process. We had a major change moving our wedding plans from Baton Rouge to Pensacola and she was so flexible! She is able to capture all those special moments without everything looking stiff. Her style is very natural and easy. I love also how the people look very natural in her photos and NOT super airbrushed. She has a very classic eye with a vintage flair. She gave great direction while taking photos, which is super helpful for people like me who never know what to do with their hands. She was without a doubt our best choice we made and best wedding vendor from beginning to end. If I had to do it all over again, my husband and I would choose Lauren in a heartbeat. She is fantastic and much more affordable than a lot of her competitors in Baton Rouge and New Orleans. And she's now doing destination wedding in the Florida area! :) Hire her, you will not regret it.

tumbled upon Lauren's website while she was helping me search for new options. I immediately fell in love with Lauren's style of photography and knew that I had to book her!! Lauren is so sweet and helpful, and I knew from the second that we met with her that she would be perfect for our small wedding. Lauren took our engagement pictures, my bridals, and our wedding pictures. I was super nervous about taking professional pictures, but she made me feel at ease in front of the camera, and the pictures came out far more beautiful than I could have ever imagined. Lauren was very quick to answer any questions I had, and she was always available through email and text message. I received my edited engagements and bridals about a week after we took them, and all of the wedding pictures were done in a month. We got the coolest USB drive with all of the printing rights, which was very important to me. I couldn't have asked for a more amazing photographer to capture our wedding, and I will cherish the beautiful photographs she took of our family and friends and our venues forever!!

round and did such a great job at capturing moments that went by too fast to even remember. The photos are SO beautiful and we can't wait to hopefully use her again in the future! LOVE LOVE LOVE!

such a professionalism about her. When my husband and I saw her portfolio and read about her, we knew that we wanted her to photograph and document our recent elopement in NOLA. She was so great in communicating with us through emails, since we were "elopers" coming from out of town, and she made our time with her on our special day something we will remember always! She has a very long and successful career ahead of her, I know it! Couples are very blessed to have her be a part of their special day, when photographing those moments that they will have to cherish for the rest of their lives. Truly, we cannot say enough wonderful things about someone we feel so honored to have met ♥

different requests. Lauren is very professional and easygoing, which in turn made us feel comfortable while taking our pictures. She was willing to walk throughout the French Quarter and gave great suggestions for various poses and areas for us to take pictures in. We used her services for our engagement and day of wedding, which turned out beautifully. We got the posing pictures we wanted, as well as creative, artsy-looking photos. We never worried about if she got certain photos because she is so quick that at times you weren't sure if she was there. Love her spirit and easy-going nature. I definitely feel that she is a great choice for anyone looking for wedding/engagement photographer.

f the pictures turned out. Turnaround time was very quick as well. Would not hesitate to recommend her to friends. She's the best!

go the minute she arrived. There are no words to express how incredibly pleased I am with the way she captured our special day. She did a great job capturing every detail from morning to midnight. Her work speaks for itself. I couldn't be happier with our photos. I would choose Lauren over and over again, a million times. SHE REALLY IS PERFECT YALL

e I had requested was taken without any worries! We got our pictures back and were beyond thrilled! I would recommend Lauren to everyone!!!

g else I wanted to try! Lauren was always quick to get back with me about dates, questions, or photos I wanted to have retouched. I was impressed by her fun attitude and professionalism as well as her great prices! I cannot say enough good things about Lauren and would recommend her to anyone!

ts" instead of the all staged/posed pictures. Highly Recommened!

I knew we had found our photographer! She seemed very committed to delivering quality pictures to the client's specifications, as well as very knowledgeable of her craft. We planned our wedding remotely from New York, so meeting in person was not an option, but Lauren was very responsive via email and phone. During the wedding, she was snapping up a storm, and even stayed a little longer when our schedule got pushed back a bit. Like I said, this girl is committed to her craft! It was easy to see how much she loves doing what she does. We recently got a sneak peek of our pictures and they are stunning, gorgeous, beautiful.... I can go on and on about how how happy we are with these! She is super talented! And did I mention what a pleasure she is to work with? I think I did, but it really can't be stated enough. Hire her asap! You won't be disappointed.
