When my now wife and I were looking into photographers, our venue, sent us recommendations that we explored first. Some of them we connected with and from their samples we didn't l...
ike - too dramatic or whimsical - while others ignored us or were outrageously overpriced for what looked like photoshop city. We expanded our search and found Lauren, who was connected to a few other vendors we were looking into as well. Lauren, from our first meeting, had the vibes we were looking for. She was at the same time, relaxed and stern, fun and funny but with an attitude of making sure the job gets done and done right. She also made sure to note that she spoke fluent Vietnamese and could help support with or elders too which made her both our photographer and on the spot coordinator too which was amazing for our actual wedding day. She ended up doing our engagement shoot as well, which came out fantastic (even after inclement weather). Lauren was everywhere on the day of our wedding, and I was so surprised just how many shots she took, on top of the photos we definitely wanted to get and planned around. She has a style that is natural and light, with an eye for beautiful candids and is a pro at making the posing feel normal with her humor and friendly aura. If I could give her more than 5 stars I would and she would have earned each and everyone and then some. Needless to say she is our go-to photographer now and my wife and I are signed up for her winter wonderland photoshoots too!

We got married 9/24/22- and we had the pleasure of having Lauren as our photographer!!! My husband and I really wanted to find a photographer who not only took great photos, but th...
at we could also feel comfortable with since they would be in charge of capturing moments of our special day together. The moment we had met Lauren we knew she was the perfect fit!! She has such great energy and made the day so much fun! Everyone who interacted with Lauren commented on how talented she was and asked how we found her! Posing for photos can feel awkward- but her positive and bubbly personality made it feel way more natural. We also just got a sneak preview of some of our wedding photos- and wow they are truly breathtaking! The editing is amazing and really captures the fairytale vibe we always envisioned. If you can- I would also book her for your engagement session. We did that- and it made us extra excited for our wedding seeing how great those photos turned out as well. I would highly recommend playful soul photography! You won’t regret it!
