Lauren Dorman Photography

great. If you are looking for a photographer, you seriously will not be disappointed with Lauren!

uickly and were more beautiful than I could have imagined. We definitely intend to use Lauren again for any future family photos.

f a favor and book her now!

etest photos of us. She is professional, kind, and so in her element when photographing — you’re in such good hands with Lauren as your photographer! Our engagement and wedding photos turned out so beautifully, and we will cherish our photos forever. We cannot thank Lauren enough for capturing all the details we never want to forget!

bubbly personality and kindness really made my day feel even more special and easy- like I had a long-time friend helping me through the whole process! Lauren was even sweet enough to send “sneak-peaks” super fast, so my husband and I were able to post and share with family as we were on our way to the honeymoon!! If I were able to give 100 stars, I WOULD!!

l at ease during sessions. We had a large wedding party and she did great working with all the “personalities” lol. I would highly recommend her to anyone. She’s super fun to work with and her pictures are gorgeous!

work with & I absolutely love our pictures.

ed and more. I will recommend her to everyone I know!

ay of so seamless and easy. My husband and I are obsessed with all the pictures she got back to us. Lauren is professional, fun and easy to work with.

photos to look back on for the rest of your life. Lauren is kind, easy to work with, pays close attention to detail, and is extremely talented. I could honestly go on and on about her. She is open to travel, checks the weather before engagement and wedding shoots and chooses the best location for pictures. She guides well when taking pictures. I literally have no idea what to do other than smile at the camera. Lauren takes it a step further and tells you how to angle you face/body, has cute suggestions on what you and your partner should to do and as a result, you have the perfect candid shots. I can't recommend Lauren enough! You will be glad you hired her to capture the special moments of your wedding day!

as available anytime I had questions, and she was always prompt in her responses. I highly recommend her services!

ncern I had. Her associate, Sharon and her assistant, Lauren, were amazing, too!! Photos from both events were absolutely gorgeous and we got them back so fast. I cannot thank them enough!

bsolutely loved them so we couldn’t wait to see what she did for the wedding. Lauren is so easy to get along with and definitely helped calm my nerves on a stressful day. She had my whole gallery to me very very quickly. We absolutely adore all of our photos and will cherish them for many years. Not to mention she was literally 9 months pregnant at the time and on her feet all day making sure she got the perfect shots for me and my husband. Lauren’s work is absolutely beautiful, and she is a fantastic person to get to hang out with on your wedding day! Highly recommend.

enever I first started looking for a photographer, but after our first phone call I knew she was the perfect match!! Every photo was more beautiful than I ever could expected!!! She even got in on a prank on my husband that his best man and I planned!!! Too be honest she felt like a best friend I’ve known for years!!! Ben and I loved having Lauren shoot our favorite day, and will forever use her for any other photos we need!! If you are looking for not only an amazing photographer, but a fantastic person to work with, Lauren is your girl!!! Thank you Lauren for everything!!!

folio ready in just 2 short weeks! She was everything I hoped for in a photographer and more! Her personality is amazing, and she is ready from the start to make your big day the best! I loved that she met with us before the wedding and got to discuss exactly what the plan would be when August arrived. This helped to alleviate a lot of pre-wedding anxiety. She showed up and started taking photos the minute she arrived. She knew exactly what shots to take and was super personable! She joked with the wedding party and made everybody feel super comfortable, even those who don't like being in front of the camera. She got to take some amazing shots of us on the bridge in our hometown, and WOW, those turned out amazing, just like all of our pictures! Despite being pregnant, she gave us more than we could have asked for, so I know nothing can hold her back from getting wonderful photos! She also helped me with the decision to do the first look. I am so glad I went with the first look because we got some wonderful photos. She captured the emotions of the moment, and I will cherish those pictures forever. If you are looking for a wedding photographer, I 100% recommend Lauren without a doubt! We will definitely be using her again in the future, no question!

l on us. I am very Type A, so for something not to feel like I need to act upon it is rare. They were also a blast to have around. They were really good at encouraging the fun we were all having, and our wedding party loved having them around. She was also so easy to get in touch with before the wedding, and answered all the questions I had before the wedding itself. I highly recommend hiring her for your big day, as you will not regret it!

uts and she would reassure me that it was all going to be okay! I was beyond happy with my pictures and GIRLS LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT HER TURN AROUND! Literally Sunday I had 20 sneak peaks and then just TWO WEEKS later I had the entire gallery! I love love love this girl and will always refer her to everyone and anyone! Thank you soo much for making my wedding day perfect!

She went above and beyond as far as helping us choose outfits, coaching us through our photos, and making sure we got exactly what we wanted!

anted them to be.

ht when I was stressed! She offered great advice when I asked and was so honest when I asked her opinions, it was so refreshing. During our engagement pictures and wedding pictures she kept the timeline and schedule so well and ensured we got every photo we wanted! I never felt rushed by her, she made sure I was happy with the photos I was taking. I felt so relaxed and comfortable. She captured some of the best and sweetest moments of our lives. I would definitely recommend anyone to hire Lauren to capture your moments. You can have complete confidence she will capture them, and capture them beautifully! :)

very ounce of joy in our day. She was punctual, flexible, and courteous. It was an amazing experience, and I would highly recommend her for any bride to be!

ural and like "us," but didn't have to wonder, "What do I do with my hands!?" As a result, our photos are not only gorgeous, but really capture our wedding day exactly the way we want to remember it - happy and relaxed.

tography, all of which we are SO happy with. Posing for photos is not within our comfort zone, and she had us laughing and enjoying the experience so much which took a lot of the stress out of getting "the right shot" in addition to capturing some really great candids. As a bride, planning the wedding is stressful and from the very beginning, Lauren would say "let me handle this," and "you don't need to worry about that, I've got it," when it came to wrangling family members together and planning out the important photos that anyone would ever want to help capture such an important and memorable day. That was a HUGE help in the sense that, once we hired her, we didn't have to actually put any more thought into the photography because she just handled it in all aspects. Hallelujah. Our friends and family all really enjoyed meeting and working with her as well, and everyone kept asking "where did you find her?" as though somehow we had stumbled upon a unicorn. She was fabulous, and I'm so impressed that she offers such a variety of packages to fit every need and every budget. We can't thank her enough for the great work, and look forward to working with her again.

riends and family! I highly recommend her as your photographer!

es away the stressors that come with planning a wedding. Every time we messaged her for advice, she always responded right away. The most wonderful gift she gave us on the wedding day was that we didn't have to stress. We had complete confidence that she would have things under control and be doing the most amazing job. I can't think of a single special moment she missed. So many of our guests commented on how lovely she was and since seeing the photographs I keep getting multiple compliments. The photographs themselves are more perfect than we could have ever hoped for. Our wedding was such a special day and she has somehow managed to keep it for us, captured in those photos, for years to come. I must have looked through them a thousand times already and I'm sure I will a thousand more! One of the most special moments was receiving a sneak peak of the photographs on our honeymoon and looking through them together. Nothing is too much trouble and she would always bend over backwards to make sure we were happy. A word of advice to future couples... book her now!

an is THE artist you want to have portray your special day. Not only is she extremely easy to work with, she was completely prepared, took charge, and she made the photography process during the wedding effortless and easy. She has a talent that really sets her apart from other photographers, and she has an amazing personality that put myself at ease, and brought out the natural beauty of everyone in attendance. Hire her immediately, you won’t be disappointed. I will treasure these photos for the rest of my life!!

tions and was quick to reassure me on some of my concerns. She edited all the photos very quickly and by the end of our honeymoon, we had the final files. However, I was fairly disappointed with the collections (engagement and wedding) as a whole when I got the final images. Lauren has a great eye for capturing beautiful light and landscape. But her attention to detail is lacking. I did bridals with a different photographer who was quick to adjust a twisted necklace or weird head angle or awkward hands and Lauren doesn't do that. I had a hair tie on my wrist for half of our engagement shoot and she didn't notice. Our wedding photos came back and most of the portrait shots I received weren't flattering. My dress was bunched weird or hands were in weird spots. I had blemishes on my cheek and chin that could be retouched in post, and because of her (beautiful) editing style, they are accentuated in all the photos. Lauren has only a few poses that she does. And for a plus-size bride, I don't feel like they are very flattering for my body type at all. We aren't models, so relied so heavily on her to put us in the right positions and I just think the mark was missed. We paid for a second shooter, and with the exception of maybe a handful of shots, I don't know what that money was used towards. We didn't receive many photos from him. (The ones we got were good, just too few.) Lauren talked me out of getting more photos when we were signing the contract. She guaranteed 150 and we received just over 200, and it wasn't enough. Especially when there were so many that I won't use. We didn't feel like there were enough of the guests. And even though we had a shot list, it was up to us to make it happen--and with the blur of the day, it just didn't. We had an accidental "line" form when we were asked to return to the top of the aisle to take photos--we had to fight against the crowd who were headed to where our reception was being held--while we were hugging and greeting everyone who came, Lauren and her second were just waiting at the top of the aisle for us! I feel like so many good shots could've come from that, and they were just standing there and didn't take the opportunity. It makes me want to cry when I think about it. Once the line was over, we were so far behind schedule, that we opted to move into doing couple photos and I didn't realize then that it meant we weren't going to get our shots. We don't have any pictures of my husband's friends or family outside of the few we took prior to the ceremony. And we only have a few from my side because my friends were pulling me into photos. Files are delivered via dropbox. Instead of doing a link, she shares the folder with you--so if you don't have extra space in Dropbox, you can't open the files. Overall, did we get some lovely shots? Absolutely. Lauren is talented and her editing is unique, especially here in Utah, but there are a million things that I wish had gone differently. I think someone who knows how to be in front of the camera and knows exactly what they want will get wonderful photos from Lauren.

tos. We hired her for our engagement and wedding day. We’re so happy with our photos!!! Worth every penny, 10/10 would recommend!!

fortable. Honestly she felt like friend I’ve known forever. We live in California and will be looking into working with her again because we loved her so much. We highly recommend Lauren!

es of my wedding and she helped with her beautiful pictures. I wouldn’t recommend anybody else!

easy to work with and creates the most beautiful photos!

has the sweetest personality. She completely caputered our vision. We love you Lauren!

red her as well. We loved our experience with her and her photographs could not be better. :)

o make sure all of our questions had been answered. On the day of our wedding, Lauren arrived early and began taking photos right away. She knew exactly what to look for and guided us through creating beautiful first look photos, ceremony and receptions photos, and portraits. She interacted with us and our guests, and everyone commented on her fun personality. To top it off, Lauren got all of our final edits to us within a week of the wedding. Again, everyone who saw the photos commented on how beautiful the photos were. Her expertise was essential in helping our day run smoothly, and I cannot recommend Lauren enough!

remely reliable. My husband, who hates pictures, loves working with her and loves our pictures. She really captures my special day and made whole family look amazing! My family absolutely loves the pictures. I would definitely work with her again and recommend her to everyone!

ful. We love her photo-editing style. She planned to add a second shooter (on her own dime) for the wedding because she was pregnant, who was also fantastic. We appreciated how proactive she was in making these accommodations.

used her time with us to it’s full potential. I’m not a big fan of having my picture taken, but Lauren got me out of my shell and made me genuinely laugh in our pictures! We will definitely be calling her back for future appointments.

wedding next year!

ntly waited to see the finished product. I was not worried at all that she wouldn't get shots of what I wanted. If you're looking for a photographer look no further!

in front of the camera. Lauren did just that. She drove up to a gorgeous mountain location the day of our shoot to make sure it would fit our desired style and that there wasn’t going to be weather issues. She was friendly and easy to talk to making it easy for us to relax and let her capture intimate moments without looking posed at all. Thanks again Lauren! We loved spending our time with you

large group. The pictures turned our great! We felt like she captured all the details of our special day perfectly. We will recommend her to our friends and family!

ommend Lauren to anyone!
