Lauren Dobish Photography

We had the best experience working with Lauren! I wanted to include my very excitable dogs in our engagement photos, but didn't think they would cooperate out in public. Lauren was so accommodating and came to our home and was so patient with our dogs! We were able to get so many amazing pictures with them - even ones with BOTH of them looking at the camera! Lauren also made the most out of our location and found the best spots to take pictures. She had our full gallery ready so quickly, too! She exceeded my expectations and I would recommend her to anyone :)

There is truly no one better! We began working with Lauren in 2016 when she started photographing Rich and I and our three pups for holidays, our surprise engagement, and our rehearsal dinner, welcome drinks, and wedding day in August. At no surprise to us, Lauren and her second shooter were a calming presence amidst the excitement on our wedding day. She managed to be everywhere, capturing the big and subtle, candid moments we might have missed. She captured all of our shot requests with patience and grace, wrangling our rowdy wedding parties, and beautifully captured our three dogs, who were not interested in being cooperative that day. Her ability to blend into the background while simultaneously directing and capturing stunning portraits is truly impressive. As always, Lauren's photographs are nothing short of magical. Each image tells a story, evoking all the emotions and memories of that day. I always say you can immediately spot Lauren's photos, as they are simply breathtaking. Having Lauren as our wedding photographer was a no-brainer, and I can wholeheartedly say it was one of the best decisions we made for our special day. We can't wait to continue working with Lauren and having her capture our family memories for years to come!

Lauren is truly the best of the best. We have known and worked with Lauren since 2019, she has captured so many special moments from before we were engaged, to our surprise proposal, and now our wedding - I couldn’t have imagined having anyone else there on our most special day. Lauren’s love for her couples radiates, she makes everyone feel so comfortable in front of the camera, and truly is incredible. Lauren worked seamlessly with our videographer, and she fit right in with our crowd! We feel so honored and lucky to have had Lauren capture our day, and can truly say our photos are everything we dreamed of and more. We will cherish them forever. And we can’t wait to continue working with Lauren for many years to come!!

Lauren is an absolute dream to work with!!! From the intro phone call, to engagement photos and our wedding day - Lauren was friendly, positive and professional. She made me feel so comfortable in front of the camera, and my husband too (which is no easy task!). You spend so much time on your wedding day with your photographer, and with Lauren I felt like I got to spend the day with a good friend. Her talent is one of a kind. Her photos paint you in the best light and still make you feel like yourself. I was literally squealing with joy every time I got to see a new image from her! I will 100% plan to work with Lauren in the future and I would recommend her to anyone! If you are bride-to-be out there trying to decide if it's worth the splurge, let me tell you, you will be so grateful you chose to spend your day with Lauren. We love LDP!!!

Lauren is an amazing photographer and person. You will not be disappointed! She is incredibly gifted and her work is unparalleled. She has an eye for capturing special moments, and it’s very evident that she pours her heart into her work. In addition to her photographs being bright and airy, she is amazing at dog photography which was so important to us on our wedding day. She made me feel so much more relaxed on our big day and comfortable taking pictures. We are honestly obsessed with our pictures and are going to have a hard time picking which ones to frame. It should also be mentioned that she is professional, accommodating, and organized. Family formals went very smoothly. I can truly go on and on, and I cannot recommend her enough.

We wanted wedding photos at our home with our daughter and English Bulldog. Lauren was amazing - she captured all of the pictures we wanted and more! She was very easy to work with and the photoshoot was stress-free and fun. I cannot thank her enough for the memories she has captured.

If you are looking for a photographer for your wedding, or any occasion, I cannot recommend Lauren enough!! We are so happy we chose Lauren as our wedding photographer! Lauren is one of the nicest people, and so incredibly talented at what she does. She is very professional, and easily available to help with anything you need throughout the whole planning process. Lauren will make sure you known exactly what to expect during you session or wedding day, and will make sure you feel comfortable in front of the camera. Our photos were delivered to us even quicker than expected! She even sent us a gallery of sneak peaks just two days after our wedding which was such a nice touch. Our engagement and wedding photos came out more amazing than I could have imagined thanks to Lauren! We can't wait to have Lauren capture more moments for us in the future - she is the best!

Lauren is the BEST photographer ever!! After our engagement session I knew we had to have her be part of our wedding day. She is so incredibly easy to work with and you can tell that she truly loves her job!! She captures such natural photos and is so talented. I can't wait for her to capture more photos for my family!!

Lauren did such a great job for our engagement session. When our original date got rained out, she was flexible and responsive, and was able to take our pictures the following week. Lauren made the session enjoyable, fun and easy! The photos turned out great, and we got them back so quickly. 100% recommend, loved how the photos turned out and the entire process.

Lauren is absolutely incredible! She did both our engagement photos as well as our wedding photos and they turned out even better than we could have ever imagined. Within the last few weeks before our wedding we changed our plans probably four different times, and Lauren was incredibly flexible and accommodating every time something shifted. She blended in seamlessly to the day capturing beautiful candids where she could and our portraits turned out incredible as well. She was a real trooper and took the majority of photos outside in the dead of winter so we could capture the fresh blizzard that hit the day before our wedding. I cannot recommend her enough!

Lauren was a phenomenal photographer and an absolute pleasure to work with! Not only is she the sweetest person, she is so talented at what she does and makes you feel so comfortable while taking photos and gives you great direction on what to do. I am obsessed with our wedding photos and was so impressed and her very quick turnaround (we received 100 sneak peek images 2 days after our wedding which were absolutely amazing). I couldn’t recommend Lauren enough and you should absolutely hire her for your wedding and/or engagement photos.

Lauren!! I absolutely loved working with this kind soul. We worked with Lauren for two years, starting off with our engagement photoshoot. Her work is incredible. Every time you look at her photos it truly brings you right back to that moment in time. Throughout the two years of working with Lauren she went above and beyond. Always checked in on me to make sure I was doing okay and offered her help if I needed any guidance or advice since she had just gotten married and could relate to me. On our wedding day she was so fun to work with keeping me feeling happy and not stressed. She is also phenomenal with dogs. I cried when Lauren sent me the first sneak peeks of our wedding photos because she has this amazing talent of catching all the best angles, emotions, and moments.

Lauren was the absolute BEST to work with! We feel so lucky to have been able to work with her for both our engagement and wedding photos. She did such a great job with helping us feel comfortable and natural in front of the camera. On top of that, Lauren is unbelievable with dogs! She had all the tricks in the book to get our dog George to look at the camera. Her photos are so amazing they quite literally transport us back to our wedding day every time we look at them.

We LOVE Lauren. Both Lauren and her husband, Paul did our engagement photos in June of 2020 and our wedding photos this November. They are incredibly talented, which was the initial reason we chose Lauren Dobish Photography (from the high quality images we had seen online/instagram), but we grew to really appreciate their kind, comfortable, and happy nature when shooting. We immediately felt at ease on both of these days with the perfect amount of guidance from Lauren. Throughout the COVID postponement journey, Lauren remained available and supportive throughout the entire year and a half. We are so glad we chose Lauren and could not have had a better photographer to capture our special day.

We were so lucky to work with Lauren for our wedding this summer. Our photos are absolutely incredible, and each time we go back through our album we find more to fall in love with. Lauren helped make our wedding look, in my opinion, like the most beautiful wedding ever. Lauren is not only a fantastic photographer, she is friendly and professional to work with. She is able to provide detailed information on a timely schedule, and coordinate with other vendors seamlessly. Lauren was also very flexible when we had to move our 2020 wedding to 2021!

Lauren is truly the BEST. She made our engagement session so special and fun. Highly recommend using her.

Lauren has now captured our proposal, engagement session and marriage. And we will continue to use her for the years to come. We feel so fortunate to have found her a couple years ago! After getting our wedding gallery back, we were again in complete awe at how amazing Lauren is. It evident how talented she is, as well as extremely detailed oriented. Lauren goes above and beyond for her clients and it really shows. She made me feel confident and hopeful the day of our wedding day as we were walking out to the first look, when there was rain in the forecast. She kept my spirits high and believed that the rain would pass! It ended up passing and we had a beautiful sunny ceremony! She has now become more than just a photographer to us! We cherish the friendship we have made with her the past couple years! I recommend Lauren to every single person I come across whether it be family or friends or random people that are looking for a photographer! We love Lauren so much and HIGHLY recommend her! She is truly the best!!

Lauren was absolutely amazing from the moment we had an introductory phone call to the moment our photos were delivered to my inbox. She was extremely professional, informative and friendly and I knew right away that we had to hire her! On the day of our engagement shoot Lauren made the photos so much fun to take, we love them all so much that we are having a hard time choosing just one for our Save the Dates! We look forward to working with Lauren again in the future and would recommend her to all!

I was not looking forward to taking engagement photos. I am not comfortable in front of a camera. The only thing I was looking forward to was having our dog be a part of the photos. We were referred to Lauren through some fellow dog parents. And I am so grateful for that. Lauren is INCREDIBLE. We actually had FUN. The engagement session flew by. We laughed, we genuinely smiled, and Lauren knew exactly what we should do. She gave us cues and direction to ensure we got some beautiful shots. We have so many incredible photos, I am not sure how we will choose. She. Knowing how important it was for us to feature our dog, Lauren new exactly how to include him in our photos. I cannot say enough wonderful things about Lauren she made the whole experience enjoyable and we have some incredible photos that we will forever cherish.

Lauren is amazing! She made us feel comfortable and is extremely patient with our pup. Hours before the shoot, we were experiencing rain and instead of pressuring us to move forward with the shoot, Lauren was in constant communication with us throughout the day to give us the option to keep or move our shoot. Luckily, it cleared up just minutes before the shoot. Within a day, we got sneak peeks of the photos taken and within 2 weeks, we got the full gallery. LDP's photos are amazingly beautiful - we plan on using these photos for our save the dates and wedding website

Lauren was amazing in helping plan the perfect proposal surprise. I worked with her to pick the perfect location (her experience shooting around all spots around the greater Boston area came in so handy — I was between two options and she was able to send photos from past shoots at each location to help me decide). Lauren was enthusiastic about the proposal ideas and details I had, and worked with me to make sure we could pull it off. There were code words, pre-planned poses, our puppy to consider, and location changes, but Lauren has impeccable attention to detail and did not miss a single detail on her end. The photo shoot itself was such a fun experience, Lauren made my fiancé and I feel comfortable, she directed us well, and was amazing at getting a large variety of poses. The photos themselves? Gorgeous, amazing, scenic, warm, happy, fun...I could go on. The amount of variety of photos Lauren gave us was the best thing about the whole process. We are so pleased with the range of photos (fun and spontaneous ones, scenic ones, romantic ones, candid ones, portraits), and the variety of compositions and location backdrops she shot us in. Would highly recommend Lauren for capturing any moment to remember, whether that be a wedding, surprise engagement, doggie photoshoot, or even just a family portrait session. The photos that she will deliver and the moments she will capture for you to have forever, are simply priceless.

Lauren is an incredible photographer. My husband and I could not be happier with our photos. I am so grateful to her for working with us as we changed our wedding plans multiple times. She is professional, punctual, responsive via email, phone, text - you name it! By far the easiest choice we made when selecting any of our wedding vendors. We had THE BEST time doing a photoshoot just the two of us-Lauren made everything fun and captured great shots. Just looking through our photos makes me want to hire her again for another session!

Lauren Dobish is the most incredible human being on this earth. When I got engaged, I was looking for a photographer and I came across her instagram and fell in love with her style of pictures. I reached out to her and talked to her on the phone and immediately felt like I was chatting with my best friend on the phone. She is so easy to talk to and her work is so incredible. My husband and I met her for the first time at our engagement shoot, and it was love at first sight. My husband and I were nervous that taking corny pictures would be so awkward- especially with a stranger! But instantly it felt like she was our best friend and she gave us perfect instructions and made us feel so at ease that our engagement pictures came out incredible. And then COVID happened, and we had to totally change our wedding plans but Lauren was SO AMAZING about all the twists and turns we threw her way. She was so accommodating and so down for anything. We literally changed states and she was totally unfazed and so ready to capture our wedding day. I was so stressed out on our wedding day because so many of my plans had changed and I kept feeling like I was forgetting things - not to mention we were getting married as an impending hurricane was headed our way. When Lauren walked into our suite I literally forgot about everything. She has the most calming energy. It felt like my best friend from childhood walked in the room. Im telling you.- she is so friendly and personable. I think this is a HUGE OVERSIGHT on so many brides radar. You want a photographer that takes good pictures- but do you think about the fact that this person is going to be by your side ALL DAY on the day of your wedding? You want someone you are comfortable with and to whom you enjoy their company - not a stranger! Anyways, she was so good at directing us on our wedding day she was literally a wedding coordinator and a photographer all in one. We just got our pictures back from our wedding day and I am speechless. ALL of our pictures are absolutely STUNNING. I didn’t even realize she took half the pictures she did because she is so discrete - which is another HUGE thing to consider- you don’t want someone forcing these awkward poses on you! She literally captured such natural interactions in the most beautiful way. She brought her second shooter- her fiance Paul - and yup you guessed it I’m in love with him too. They are the sweetest couple and are so genuinely happy for you - it feels like they are just your friends at your wedding. I was so sad at the end of our wedding that I would have to say bye to her because I wouldn’t see her again any time soon- but I am so looking forward to the day when we are able to use her again for our family portraits. YOU NEED LAUREN.

Lauren was such a dream to work with! She is super friendly and makes you feel at ease in front of the camera. I can’t wait to see the rest of the photos, but her sneak peeks came out amazing and she made us look like we just stepped out of a magazine! I also love how she captured our dogs! I will be calling her to photograph our puppy this fall!

We wouldn't have wanted anyone else as our wedding photographer! Lauren is a genuine photographer who makes you feel like you're most important. She did a wonderful job at making us feel comfortable and captured moments when we didn't even know she was there! She was professional through our whole journey,(engagement photos, planning, and the day of) all while having a smile on her face the entire time. She was extremely timely in her turn around with responding to emails, showing up to sessions, and the final photos. We are beyond pleased with the final products; it will be hard to pick the ones we will frame! On a scale from 1-10, we'd give her an 11! You won't be disappointed in any way with hiring Lauren. She's truly the best! We are even hoping she's going to come back to photograph our children some day ;)  XO, Jessica and Roman

My husband and I decided at the beginning of January to get married on the long weekend - in two weeks! Lauren was not only available but so excited to photograph our small wedding of 10 guests. Due to the quick timing, we didn't meet her before our wedding day but she put everyone at ease and kept us relaxed and laughing during our family photos. That vibe continued as my husband and I walked around Boston with her to get photographs around the city. Even before we saw our photos, our family couldn't stop raving about how great Lauren was. And her photos did not disappoint! She perfectly captured the intimate ceremony that we had, and even caught several smiles from our non-smiling 3 year-old nephew. And the outside photos are unbelievable. She captured quintessential winter Boston scenes which is exactly what we wanted! Not to mention the speed - we got a sample the next day, which was amazing since we wanted to tell the world we eloped. And we got the full gallery in a week!

As if Lauren’s incredible talent and unwavering commitment to her art weren’t enough, she‘s also an absolutely lovely person. My husband and I had both a destination engagement and wedding, so we never did photos in Boston. When we got our pup two months after our wedding, we decided it was the perfect opportunity to do a Boston shoot. From the moment I contacted Lauren, she was communicative, flexible, and accommodating. After we booked, she sent over a wealth of information to prepare us for our shoot. Her organization, thoughtfulness, and professionalism left no detail overlooked. Lauren’s love, passion, and care for her art infused excitement into the shoot. Her energy is contagious, and she’s nothing short of delightful to work with — even during a cold sunrise shoot! She has a unique ability to create a vision, and works tirelessly to see it through. Lauren shared some sneak peaks with us that very same day, and we were amazed by how beautifully the images captured not only our fun morning shoot, but the love we share for one another and our fur baby. We couldn’t recommend Lauren for all your photography (and phoDography) needs any more. We look forward to working with her for many years to come!

Working with Lauren felt like if your best friend just happened to be INCREDIBLY talented at photography. She is so down to earth and easy to talk to, she takes all the stress of planning away and just lets you enjoy your day. My husband and I both have large, loud families with big personalities and every single person loved Lauren. Multiple people came up to us after the wedding talking about how much fun she was and how comfortable they felt with her. Her positive energy is contagious and exactly what you want on your big day! She also delivered all of our photos INCREDIBLY quickly which was so appreciated. Her photos are beautiful and so natural and her ability to have fun and bond with everyone in the room instantly alleviates any stress on your wedding day. Absolutely book Lauren you will not regret it!!

Lauren has been a lifelong friend, as we grew up as best friends through high school and she continues to be the most kind, engaging, caring individual which is shown in her work with clients. My husband and I enjoyed our time with her for both our engagement and wedding photos. She takes the time to get to know you and your partner beforehand, and makes sure she captures not only the best photos, but also the ones that you would like to have. Our photos were stunning and they truly displayed our story and our love for each other. Lauren's creativity, passion and innovative style allows her to capture every emotion you are feeling in one photo. Ever since our work together, I have been recommending Lauren to everyone I know that is planning to get married! I would never recommend anyone else :)

Lauren captured our surprise proposal and I could not be more thankful to have had her there. She is extremely kind, personable, and patient. She is the best photographer, and our pictures came out so amazing. She was able to capture our love for each other and our dog so perfectly. We could not have asked for a better experience with Lauren. We look forward to working with her again. We highly recommend working with Lauren- she is the best!

LAUREN WAS AWESOME! Unfortunately our original photographer was unable to shoot us the day of our wedding as she was going to be a new mother (so exciting!) but she assured us we were in good hands with Lauren and we absolutely were. I hadn't met her until the day of the wedding but the phone calls we had leading up to the day of instilled complete confidence in me and my husband. She made us feel so at ease before everything even began and we had so much fun with her the day of, and our pictures came out looking BEAUTIFUL! Thank you so much Lauren for such a great experience and amazing pictures!

Lauren is absolutely amazing! She has gone above and beyond what I could have ever imagined on my wedding day. I have known Lauren personally and worked with her before so there was no question that she was going to be my photographer after I got engaged. The day of the wedding, her and Paul were doing such an outstanding job that I even had people message me afterwards talking about how sweet and professional they both were. Lauren knew exactly what I wanted the day of and delivered not only the most insane pictures I’ve ever seen, but made my day so stress free and fun. I seriously cannot imagine getting married without her :)

Hiring Lauren for our wedding was one of the best things we did. From our first phone call she listened to our vision for our big day and exceeded our expectations by a long shot. She was an incredible support throughout the process and for two people who are uncomfortable being in front of the camera, the perfect person to be photographing us on our big day. Not to mention each photo she took came out incredible.10/10 would hire her again in a second.

Lauren is INCREDIBLE!! She captured all of the pictures we wanted and MORE! She is great to work with and blends into your wedding to capture the most authentic moments. I would recommend her to anyone and will use her for EVERY event in the future that we have!

My fiance and I booked Lauren to do an engagement session with our dog Rylee, and we could not have had a better experience. We had a great first impression of Lauren. Not only was she super responsive, but she was also very willing to cater the time/location of the photoshoot around what would work best for Rylee. The weather for the day of our shoot was also questionable, and she was so willing to find another date that worked for us if needed. The morning of the shoot, Lauren made us so comfortable (coming from somebody that does not like getting pictures taken!), gave us enough direction, was so patient, and she worked SO well with Rylee. Our photos came out amazing! They feel like captured moments, and we could not be happier with the end result. She was also able to capture some great shots of Rylee. Our pictures turned around so quickly- She truly makes you feel like a priority and is a kind, genuine person. Cannot recommend her enough, and will definitely be using her in the future!

Lauren did an amazing job capturing both our engagement and wedding. She super friendly and full of great ideas for photos. Best of all she was excited and did an awesome job including our dog.

Thank you Lauren! Lauren is one of the best photographers around! I was able to met Lauren through my cousin (she was also her photographer!). She is extremely professional and very easy going. She immediately feels like your friend and as if you have known each other your entire life. We were lucky enough to have Paul as our second shooter. Lauren and Paul make an incredible team! They made sure to get every picture we wanted even in 17-degree weather! Check out our picture because they are truly amazing. Friends and family have been RAVING about every single picture! Lauren went above and beyond for us. She stays in communication and always quick to respond. She made our big day go extremely smooth and always made us feel at ease. We received our pictures only a few short weeks after our wedding. I cannot say enough great things about Lauren Dobish Photography. I might get a puppy just to hang out again!

Having photos that capture the special moments and people included in our wedding day was of utmost importance to my wife and I. From the moment we met Lauren we fell in love with her previous work and her fun and energetic attitude. Her communication, thoughtful planning, and attention to detail made for an outstanding quality of product and helped greatly to reduce the stress of our big day. We were more than happy with our wedding photos from Lauren and can't say enough good things about how comfortable and easy she made the process.

Lauren is such a sweet and down-to-earth person. My fiancé, Daniella, and I connected with her so fast! She really is more than just an amazing photographer; she is a genuine, kind and fun human being. Our proposal session went so well thanks to her expertise and good-natured approach! We actually became aware of Lauren Dobish Photography after one of our closest friends commissioned her for their engagement shoot this past summer. Regarding our proposal pictures, we are truly blown away! With the way Lauren photographed our proposal, it feels like she has the truly rare gift of storytelling! She really captured the buildup of various emotions as I got down on one knee and began proposing to my now fiancé, Daniella. She even blended in so well from across the street that Daniella didn’t notice her until she physically came closer to us to capture a slightly different angle. From tears of joy, to laughs of jubilation, to pure gratitude, Lauren captured it all seamlessly! This next detail speaks to Lauren’s character so well: even she herself was crying after I proposed. It proved to both of us how much she actually cares about her clients! Lauren is the kind of photographer who understands the great value of authentic connection with the people she works with. This enhances her photos and leads to even better images. Right after the proposal occurred, she asked us if we were ready to do a mini-portrait session. The way she switched up gears did not feel rushed, it felt so natural and exciting! Because we work in the wedding industry as videographers, we are used to being behind the camera, not in front of it. So we were a little nervous as she began directing us. But her direction was always so clear and concise. She made us laugh a lot too, which was good because it helped get the tears of joy to disappear and be replaced by ear-to-ear smiles! Another thing we LOVED about working with Lauren was the speed of her delivery. Plus, she OVER DELIVERED the number of final images, giving us DOUBLE what she estimated originally within FIVE DAYS!! We really enjoyed how she turned some black and white; this adds a timeless effect to the already timeless work she creates. We’ve already looked at our gallery a few times now, and it honestly feels as though the gallery gets better and better each time! Thank you, Lauren, for keeping us on cloud nine engagement bliss :) At one point, the forecast looked bad, so I asked if Lauren would be available the next day. She wasn't, but she said she’d “totally understand if I went with someone else because she couldn’t commit to the next day as well.” That is what sold me on her: Her kindness and authenticity! I could tell she wasn’t greedy and that she really wanted me to have a successful proposal. I really appreciated her attention to detail. As most guys will eventually find out, planning and executing a successful proposal can be daunting. Lauren put me at ease, though, and when we hopped on the phone the day before the proposal, she listened more than she spoke, and was so clear about the information she needed from me, without adding too much extra work or stress on my plate the day before the proposal. And I could hear in her voice she was genuinely excited and eager for the plan I had come up with! We cannot recommend Lauren Dobish Photography enough. She will exceed your expectations and you’ll walk away feeling like you have a new friend!! --Abraham & Daniella

Lauren Dobish was amazing to work with as our wedding photographer! She is so talented -we absolutely love our engagement and wedding pictures! She's also an awesome dog photographer perfect for capturing our miniature dachshund Olivia! She was so easy to work with-easy to contact by phone or email and very responsive. She helped us organize a plan for photos throughout our wedding day and captured so many wonderful memories from our special day! We had a second wedding celebration on the West Coast less than a month after our NH wedding and Lauren helped put together a wonderful slideshow of pictures from our NH to share with family and friends- everyone loved it! You should definitely book her for your wedding if you are looking for an amazing photographer who is super talented and super fun to work with!

Let's be honest for a sec, wedding planning can be stressful. Let me save all you brides- to- be hours of online searching or in person meetings to look over portfolios with potential photographers because Lauren Dobish Photography was the absolute BEST decision my husband and I made when planning our wedding. Lauren was actually the 1st call I made after setting our date and venue. I had seen her work in capturing my friend's NYE Boston wedding and 5 minutes in to our call Lauren felt like a long lost friend. She totally understood the vibes we were going for in our Cape Cod coastal wedding and the importance of the photos not seeming forced, staged or too formal. Lauren perfectly captured the love and pure joy of our "best.day.ever" as a couple and being surrounded by family and friends while also managing to create beautiful portraits, group photos, and unforgettable candids for us to cherish forever. We received SO MANY compliments from our parents and bridal party on the day of the wedding after working with Lauren on her fun personality, artistic process, and efficiency in managing our rowdy group with humor and ease to get those "perfect shots." I could go on and on forever about how fantastic and talented Lauren is as a photographer, but on a personal note I am glad that she was brought into our lives and I can't wait to stay connected with Lauren over the years as she will forever be a part of capturing our families memories to come.

We are so lucky we came across Lauren! We heard about Lauren through a friend who had photos taken as part of a mini-session and had incredible things to say about her and her work! Having just recently gotten married and being unable to include our dog on our wedding day, we reached out to Lauren to schedule a portrait session with our dog and she was extremely responsive and flexible! She was enthusiastic, friendly, eager to make the portrait session work with us (despite her jam packed schedule for wedding season) and completelty professional! My husband and I felt comfortable with Lauren immediately! She made the photo shoot feel like working with your best friend! She arrived early, stayed late and made sure we took every photo we could possibly want and more! She also had great suggestions for shots! She has a great eye and gave us just the right amount direction that the photos came out beautifully but still totally natural! Beyond being an amazing photographer (the photos came out incredible and we are thrilled!) she is an actual dog whisperer! Lauren and Danielle (For the Love of Paws Boston) were an amazing team! They got our crazy, high energy pup to sit still and photograph beautifully! (Our dog rescue group even asked to use her photos because they couldn’t get over how great they came out!) If you’re looking to include your pets or animals in your photos, looking for beautiful photos, looking to find a friend in your photographer or just want amazing, professional, quality photographs - you need to check out Lauren Dobish!

We used Lauren for our wedding in Cape Cod on September 22 and she was AMAZING! We really loved Lauren as our photographer for a few reasons: 1) She was so organized and prepared. A few weeks before our wedding, we walked through a timeline of events with Lauren so she knew the plan for the ceremony and the reception. We also made a list of “posed” photos in advance so that we could ensure we got all of the family photos we wanted without forgetting anything in the craziness of the day! We had a larger wedding – about 250 people – so that comes with a lot of obstacles, but speaking with Lauren beforehand really made us feel better. 2) While Lauren was taking photos of myself and my bridesmaids getting ready for the ceremony, Lauren was great at just kind of blending in and capturing tons of candid photos which we LOVE. She didn’t step in and ask anyone to move a certain way or to move into better lighting, she simply observed and snapped photos on the go, which is exactly what we wanted. 3) While Lauren was taking staged family photos at our reception, she did a great job of keeping people in order and telling them what to do, but not in an overbearing way. She took control and gave direction when she needed to, but not in a way that felt overwhelming. She helped to move the process along quickly, which was our goal (so that we could go enjoy our cocktail hour! 😊 ) 4) Lauren’s overall demeanor throughout the entire process was perfect – she was excited for us, but also so calm and chill that she really added to the overall perfection of the day and didn’t add any unnecessary stress. We’ve only seen a few sneak peek photos so far, and all of them have been absolutely incredible. Lauren really knew how to make us feel at ease in front of the camera and made the process so much enjoyable than we ever thought it could be. Lauren is a true professional and takes pride in her work. I would highly recommend her.

Words cannot describe how wonderful Lauren was for both our engagement and wedding photos! Not only are her images breathtaking, she makes you feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera. My husband and I brought our dog to our engagement session and she was fantastic with him, getting him to pose and look at the camera! Not only is she wonderful on the day of, she is constantly in contact with you leading up to the big event. She kept giving us tips and tricks to prepare, as well as helping us prepare a day of timeline. The day of the wedding, she helped keep everything on track and captured not only the big events but the small moments of overwhelming emotion! She is priceless! We will cherish the photos forever and will continue to use her to capture other big life events!

I can't speak highly enough about Lauren! She was a real delight to work with, and made our engagement photo session a wonderful experience! From scheduling (and rescheduling due to weather) to sending us the prints, beginning to end, she was responsive and professional. During the photo shoot she made us feel extremely comfortable, gave us just the right of direction, and the photos came out absolutely gorgeous! I wish we had more reasons to have professional photos taken, just so we could work with her again!

Lauren captured our engagement photos, and I truly cannot say enough good things about her. I actually found her by reading everyone else's glowing reviews, and I'm so glad I found her! Every review is spot on. Lauren is such a pleasure to work with. From the very beginning, she was so fast with responding to emails, friendly and courteous in every single correspondence, and was so accommodating and flexible with figuring out a time to schedule our shoot. She gave plenty of outfit and location suggestions and was open to answering any questions we had. When it was time to meet her, she made us feel so comfortable right away. Her personality could brighten a whole room! She is so easy to talk to and takes the time to get to know you both before and while taking her photos. She suggests plenty of poses and provides direction, but also has such a gift to capture true candid moments of happiness, silliness, and laughter -- I don't know how she does it! Also -- love that we got a few sneak peek photos within the week and our final images came so fast! Our final photos turned out so beautiful that they put the biggest smile on my face and made my whole day. She captured such happy moments I didn't even know were taken. I truly cannot say enough good things about Lauren -- she has the best gifts of a warm personality and artistic ability. If you're thinking about booking Lauren, don't think, just do!

I honestly don't even know where to start, we LOVE Lauren so so much. When my husband and I initially began the search for a wedding photographer, I was the more specific one. We had a couple phone interviews with other photographers and I wasn't really a fan of the way they did business. As soon as we talked to Lauren on the phone, I knew she was the perfect fit for us. She is extremely kind, personable and funny - we clicked right away. I seriously felt like I could chat with her for hours. We met in person for the first time in May of 2017 when she took our engagement photos. The weather had been so strange that month, switching from hot to cold every other day or so. It was freezing the day we took our photos with Lauren, but you would never be able to tell. She made us laugh and feel so comfortable being our silly selves. She even managed to get awesome pictures of our dog Baxter, who was being a bit crazy that day. The photos she took were perfect, we currently have them hanging all over our house. We signed up for a mini session with her this past fall so we could take some pictures with our new dog that we adopted in June. She got some adorable family photos of us all, which we are so thankful for. Those are also hanging in our house :) Leading up to our wedding, Lauren and I chatted many times on the phone. She even spent a Sunday afternoon scoping out spots for our first look and spots at our venue. I couldn't believe how awesome she was. She arrived right on time the day of our wedding and was able to move quickly through details photos as well as photos of myself and my bridesmaids before we went to the location of our first look. She helped us stick to our schedule that day which I'm so incredibly thankful for. She worked so hard that day, I couldn't believe that she was bouncing around as much as she did. She is truly a genuinely nice woman who loves her clients so much. She sent us a sneak peek of a few wedding photos the day after our wedding which are so beautiful. We are SO EXCITED to see all the other ones. We HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommend working with Lauren if you're getting married in New England. (She will also travel too!) Thank you Lauren, for everything. You are THE BEST!

There aren't enough compliments to give Lauren on her incredible wedding photography. I found her via a family member, her pricing fit well with my wedding budget, and her photos are the perfect mix of formals, candids, and fine art. When we spoke on the phone for the first time I literally had that giddy feeling when you know you've just met a new friend - she was always professional, offering tips and tricks for photo options while still hearing and incorporating my vision for the day, and also being just as excited as I was to celebrate our wedding! The wedding package we chose came with an engagement photo session, which was great practice for my now-husband and I since he hates being the center of attention. On the way home from the session he said "she made that really easy and casual." - just what we needed! We got married at the end of April, and my family couldn't say enough nice things about her - she was friendly and helpful with everyone, and I swear she was smiling just as much as we were that day. It made it feel even more special that she wasn't just completing a job but was celebrating right beside us. I haven't even begun to talk about her photos! They are some of the most beautiful shots I could have imagined. The lighting, the angles, and her general talent at capturing the feeling of that day is phenomenal. I can't stop looking at the over 900 photos she sent my way. My only complaint is how hard it will be to select photos for our wedding album. Her site has an option to buy prints, and makes it really easy to share with our family and friends. I loved working with Lauren and I know you will too!

From our initial conversation with Lauren until the final moments of our wedding, she was personable, positive and professional. Overall, she was an absolute pleasure to work with. Lauren was incredibly accessible and responsive throughout the planning process and every time we spoke with her, she was full of energy and ready to transform our ideas into picture perfect moments that have become treasured keepsakes. Lauren worked with us to create a custom photography package that met our needs and also provided us with a helpful planning sheet to outline our desired photography shots and to keep us on track during our busy day. Lauren also exceeded our expectations when it came to the turnaround time on receiving our wedding photo gallery. After the wedding, our friends and family commented on how sweet and easy she was to work with. We plan to contact Lauren anytime we need photography services in the future. – Alison & Luis

Please choose Lauren as your wedding photographer...she is phenomenal!!! My now husband and I were overwhelmed with the vendor selection process and I found myself searching hashtags on Instagram when I came across Lauren's page. We are so lucky to have found Lauren - she was the best part of our wedding planning/vendor process. Lauren was extremely responsive to e-mails, so friendly during our intro call and subsequent planning calls, flexible with weather and location changes for our engagement shoot (an inclusion of our dog, Hooch!) and put together a day of schedule for us to be sure we didn't miss any important pictures. She is incredibly thoughtful, mindful of special details and just an overall expert as what she does. Her patience and attention to detail made our wedding day absolutely perfect. The pictures from our engagement shoot and wedding day are incredible. Our family and friends are equally blown away by her work and continue to talk about how professional and kind Lauren and Paul were at our wedding. We are so lucky to have these memories documented for us and can't thank Lauren enough!

Lauren is amazing!! She took our engagement photos at sunrise in Boston's Public Garden and on the Esplanade. Initially I was hesitant about doing a sunrise shoot but I'm SO glad she convinced us to do it. The photos she took are stunning!!! Lauren is so easy to work with and so helpful with everything from where to take the photos, to how to pose, to what to wear. Our extremely energetic dog wanted nothing to do with the photos and was trying to chase down every single squirrel in our path, yet Lauren still captured perfect family photos of us with our pup! We are so happy to have worked with her and can't wait to use her again in the future!!

To describe our experience in one word---AMAZING! We heard of Lauren through mutual friends since we both are Bates College Alums! After our engagement, I reached out to Lauren and from seeing her amazing work and chatting with her on the phone, I knew she would be great! She is super easy to get along with and is energetic and makes it fun! The engagement photos were not posed or cheesy at all, but look completely natural. She knew what poses to do and how to make us feel comfortable in front of the camera from the start! We also brought along our 4 month old puppy and she was extremely patient with the pup! She brought her boyfriend along for backup to help with the dog and my Mom tagged along as well to take the dog when we just wanted shots of the two of us! Lauren is very organized, sending emails to schedule the engagement photos and times and meeting spots. She was so quick to give us some sneak peek photos of the shoot and took around 2 weeks to get the full engagement photo gallery back!! So so happy with our photos and can't wait for her to photograph our wedding in 2018!

I found Lauren on Instagram, as I was looking for a Boston photographer from out of town. This was actually my first experience with a professional photographer. Lauren had a familiarity with the site that I truly appreciated. Tell her exactly what you want and she'll work with that, while also giving input when needed. She was very reasonably priced, professional, friendly, and the turnaround for my pictures was very quick! My fiance and I loved the pictures she took for our engagement session.

I literally could not have imagined my wedding day without Lauren Dobish being my photographer. Not only are her photos breathtakingly beautiful, she and Paul are so much fun to work with! She was so prepared leading up to the wedding, which made the whole day completely stress-free. She really took the time to get to know me and my husband, which really makes our photos feel personal. To top it all off, we got some sneak peek photos the NEXT. DAY. after the wedding!!!! It was honestly kind of surreal to have the memories so fresh in our minds, but already getting to see the beautiful photos. A week and a half later, my wedding party is still texting me about how stunning the photos are and how awesome Lauren and Paul were. Thank you for making my day so perfect!!

Lauren was the lead photographer for both our engagement and wedding photographs. She is incredibly talented and hard-working, and just so so kind! We absolutely love her and are so glad we were able to meet her. She has a special eye for beauty. Our engagement photos were on a super chilly, grey day in Boston. Lauren took us to Faneuil Hall, where she had never shot before, and spent time scouting it ahead of time in the cold before we even showed up. During the subsequent shoot, it felt so leisurely, she made us so comfortable even when posing with hundreds of tourists in the background. I think she inherently can pick up on the personalities of couples and really try to cater her shooting style to them to make them feel comfortable. When our engagement photos came back, we were absolutely stunned and couldn't wait to have her again for Wedding Day. The wedding itself was a blur, but I remember every moment with Lauren and Wayne, our second shooter. They were a dream to work with, blending into the background and capturing moments that I didn't even know existed! Some of our favorite photos were close-ups of guests' expressions during the wedding; she really knows how to capture the warmth, personality, and small moments. It's incredible that Lauren is still relatively new to the business given the quality of her skills. I just know she's going to a big name in wedding photography someday. We are so happy to have met her and hope that we can continue to have her be our photographer for many years to come.

It's difficult to come up with all of the words to describe Lauren; Fun, kind, passionate, amazing, patient and talented are just a few! We first found her on Instagram and met up with her for a Christmas card Mini-Session in November 2016. She made my fiance, who is not a huge fan of pictures, feel so comfortable in front of the camera and captured a ton of great shots. She was also able to get amazing pictures with our (super) high energy (and often crazy) dog! She worked with us and showed us how to pose in ways that aren't awkward on camera and walked around several different areas to get the best scenery. Fast forward to Spring 2017 and we got engaged! Obviously, our first vendor communication was with Lauren - She gave us a list of her available dates and package options and gave us tons of time to decide what we wanted to do, no pressure at all. We later met her and Paul (her super cool boyfriend and second shooter) at her apartment and ended up losing track of the time while chatting. We scheduled our engagement photos in a location close to us and got completely poured on (I'm talking flash-flood action). Not a problem for Lauren, we already had a rain date set up and she didn't mind driving back up another day to work with us. She emailed/texted us back and forth checking on the weather, making sure the lighting and location would be in our favor. The rain-date ended up having perfect weather and she stayed with us for nearly 2 hours shooting in different areas with and without our dog. Again, she made us both feel totally comfortable in front of the camera and got a ton of adorable candid and posed shots. She is completely flexible and more than happy to work with you to get you whatever you want. She provides you with any information you need and works quickly to get your final gallery delivered right to your inbox (She also has a great hook-up for printed photos!. Lauren's photos are amazing and we are beyond excited to have her capture memories at our wedding next spring!

Last fall my boyfriend of 13 years asked me to marry him under the Christmas tree in Boston. After snapping a few pictures, we were off to celebrate with our family and friends. Quickly following our engagement we started exploring long lists of different venues, vendors, and many of the other things that go into a perfect wedding day. We were focused on finding a photographer with the experience and skill set to really capture our special day from beginning to end. A friend of ours recommended Lauren after hearing great reviews of her work at other friends' weddings. We reached out to Lauren and immediately felt a great connection. Right from the start she was not only friendly, relatable, and fun to talk to, but more importantly she was knowledgeable and professional. She understood the difficulties of selecting a photographer and reassured us every step of the way. After meeting with Lauren one day after work we knew we had found our photographer! The next step was taking our engagement pictures. After 13 years together, you can only image how many pictures my fiancé and I have together and we did not want just more of the same. Lauren completely understood this and went out of her way to make our engagement shoot unique. She was also very patience with my many outfit changes! Only days following the shoot, Lauren began sending us tons of pictures that truly showed who Chris and I are as a couple. The pictures were simply beautiful! Lauren was able to turn this photo shoot into a fun and relaxing night as opposed to what we anticipated as being a stressful hour filled with awkward poses. We were very comfortable spending the night with Lauren and taking her suggestions on different poses and backdrops. Our pictures came out absolutely stunning and we are 100% confident we made the right choice in hiring Lauren to capture our special day next June! A picture speaks a thousand words and I highly recommend Lauren to anyone looking for a talented photographer!

I cannot say enough amazing things about Lauren, Paul (her handsome boyfriend AND phenomenal second photographer), and the incredible photos she takes. Throughout the entire wedding planning process, she was so organized and checked in with me multiple times to make sure she knew exactly what I wanted and when. Now, looking at the photos from our June 24th wedding, I know that she kept everything we wanted in mind while shooting. I work with students who have special needs, and invited a few of them to take photos with me before the ceremony while we were taking family photos. She was completely flexible when those students arrived and moved herself exactly where was comfortable for them and put every other picture on hold while we worked to capture the perfect shot of me and them (they turned out better than I could have imagined!). Lauren is an increasingly popular choice for dog-lovers and engaged folks alike, but when she is working with you, she will make you feel like you are her only client. Even today as I sit anxiously awaiting my full gallery of photos because she keeps teasing me with beautiful sneak peeks, she took the time to make a slideshow of her favorite photos from our special day as a surprise for me! Lauren and Paul... are the type of people who teachers, parents, and friends dream about in a world full of selfish, impatient people. They light up a room with such a positive energy, and are incredibly patient with everything that can (and probably will) go wrong on a wedding day. Since I posted some of the photos that Lauren sent me, I have gotten countless texts from my friends about how stunning the pictures turned out and how great the photographers were to capture every perfect moment for us. I could go on forever. She's fabulous and everyone should use her.

Lauren Dobish is INCREDIBLE!! My fiancé hired Lauren to photograph our proposal and the results are magical. Lauren hid while my fiancé and I were walking along Boston Harbor and she was in the perfect spot to capture the moment. Not only did she take incredible candids--this is coming from a girl who is extremely picky with photos--but she also shot some formal ones after. Lauren made us feel so comfortable and relaxed and the results really reflect this. She is so talented and funny, I couldn't have imagined the proposal without her!

Lauren Dobish was such a pleasure to work with for our wedding! From our first conversations to our engagement photos to the big day she made everything so perfect! Her passion for photography is evident and she goes above and beyond for her clients to ensure they get the best memories of their important life events. Her professionalism and preparation allowed for the wedding day to go extremely smooth. She knew what portraits and creative shots to capture and did so without wasting any time. Our pictures came out absolutely amazing and we have received so many compliments! I will definitely use Lauren Dobish for any future photography needs and would recommend her work to anyone!

Lauren Dobish is an outstanding extremely professional photographer. Lauren and her assistant Paul were both our photographers for our New England fall wedding, both my husband and I were beyond pleased with Lauren and her assistant. Not only does she have a true gift for photography, it is obvious that she loves what she does. Lauren makes sure your wedding day is as important to you as it is to her. She goes above and beyond is very passionate and dedicated to her work. Lauren makes sure that she captures exactly what the bride and groom want and envision, she answers all questions very promptly and thoroughly, and has a ease about her that makes you feel very comfortable on your wedding day so that you can enjoy the day and trust that her and Paul will provide the long lasting memories in photographs. Wedding photographs are so important because after the wedding is over the photos are what is left to keep the memories of your wedding day alive and special forever. Lauren captured all the emotions of the day to ensure my husband and I will always remember just how special the day was. Everyone in the wedding party personally commented on how wonderful she is and I was approached by many guests commenting on how great our photographers were. Lauren and Paul are fantastic, hard working, love what they do, have amazing personalities, and the best in the business. I plan on using Lauren again for all my family photos in the future because she's the best!
