We Are The Bowsers

ve never seen a wedding video done so well and the photos captured the moments throughout our wedding day so perfectly. I am so happy we decided to work with them. I will recommend them all day, everyday. They are just the best!!!!!

n our engagement, and it was the best thing we ever did. She is sweet, attentive (to you personally, as well as to detail), professional, honest, hardworking, the list truly goes on and on. Lauren had just had her baby a few weeks before our wedding, and so we had to have an associate shooter (Vanessa Boy, also amazing) step in for the day of our wedding. Lauren edited all of the photos and turned our entire wedding album around in 3 weeks - WITH a newborn baby at home! If you didn't know, you would never be able to tell the photos weren't shot by Lauren herself. Her editing is immaculate, and working with her has been such a joy. I truly don't have enough nice things to say about our experience. 10/10!

ing!) in St. Augustine, FL on 4/2/22. I don't know where to begin. First of all, they are the coolest, nicest, most down to earth people and they were so much fun to work with. Lauren is my hero forever because she shot our entire wedding almost 9 MONTHS PREGNANT with their first child and killed it!! She was so amazing in the planning, especially when she learned she was pregnant, going out of her way to make sure there was another shooter on wedding day (Nicole was also amazing) in case she had any issues (she didn't because she is a boss!). They made shooting so much fun and not a hassle at all. All of our pictures and our wedding video that Jared produced are so amazing and captured our day so perfectly. We cherish the photos and video they captured and cherish the experience we had with them equally as much. You will not find a better photographer/videographer or couple of people around! Thank you Bowsers for being the best! We love the Bowsers!!

most raw & genuine photos! Not to mention Lauren was 8 months pregnant when she shot our wedding. She crushed it! Also, Jared did amazing with our wedding video! I swear we’ve watched it 1,000 times! I’m so glad they were apart of our favorite day!

extra magical touch. The wedding video is breathtaking!! not only are they they best photographers/videographers but they are amazing humans! My husband and I absolutely love them and have no words to express our gratitude. Needless to say we HIGHLY recommend them.

o our day was something different- magical. The Bowsers captured us. Black wedding nails and all. We had a moody romantic fall wedding in Greenville, SC, and Lauren went above and beyond to find spaces that would help us to feel the most “us”. As this was my third wedding with the Boswers after being a bridesmaid twice, I was extremely comfortable with the flow of how they work and how quickly they like you to get back to the party. The shot list, detail photos, first look photos were all seamless and efficient. Our guests didn’t have to wait for hours to see us after the ceremony. They say it’s all in the details and the Bowsers love the details! We received the sweetest box post wedding with Polaroid photos, multiple 5x7’s and all of our pictures on a jump drive. I don’t have the words to express how much you should hire the Bowsers. My husband and I will cherish these photos for years to come. You aren’t paying for photos, you are paying for memories, and the Bowsers capture memories the best. Thank you WATB!!

ch happiness and love on our big day. We love them so much and are so grateful to have worked with them!❤️

nt shoot in Asheville, NC and our wedding day in Nassau, Bahamas. Lauren and Jared are so insanely creative, talented and their work is unmatched! The video and photos are even better than we ever dreamed they would be! Best investment EVER. (Not to mention, they are pretty amazing people too! 😊)

tterflies because of the way they captured the emotions of every single part of the day! I can't recommend them enough and would hire them again 1000% if I had to do it again!

moment to realize that Lauren and Jared the absolute BEST at their job but on top of that they are incredibly kind and genuine people that want the best for their couples. We could not have chosen a better duo to capture our day!

t say enough great things about them, but I think the pictures speak for themselves! All of the pictures are absolutely incredible! And I would highly suggest including the videography! I've watched our video 100x since the wedding and it still gets me teary eyed. Lauren and Jared really know how to capture a moment!

edding photos!! She is truly gifted; her work captured our love in a true, authentic, and beautiful way. As a sidenote, we got married on the beach on THE windiest day, and I was certain that the photos were going to look ridiculous with my hair and dress flapping in the crazy wind-- absolutely not the case! Thanks for working your magic, Lauren! We are so thankful for you <3

to shoot our wedding (which we found out one month prior to the big day). Hoping and praying that I could find someone we wanted, I reached out thinking it would be unlikely Lauren would be available and but by the grace of God she was and everything could not have been more perfect. Lauren quickly jumped in, established a plan and even though we did not meet until my husband and i’s wedding day, she quickly made us feel comfortable and at ease as she captured the most beautiful pictures. I appreciate her style of capturing the moments, the people and all the beautiful emotion wrapped up in them. It’s an art and we are so thankful we have these pictures to look back on the rest of our lives! Lauren was quick, professional and so thoughtful, even down to the sweet package she sent us with prints from our day. I can’t recommend her services enough, only regret would be not doing a video with them as well!

are literally the best in the game. Like, have you seen their work?! My wedding photos are more than I’ve ever dreamed of and the compliments I’ve gotten on them are out of this world. Not to mention, they are the sweetest couple you’ll ever meet. Lauren & Jared highlighted so much love, fun and genuine feelings in our photos that we will cherish forever, and most importantly, they made us look like ourselves. They captured our love like no other and we are forever indebted to them.

Are The Bowser’s! Lauren made the whole experience amazing- from making us feel so comfortable, having the most unique ideas for photo ops, and just having fun with it too! She’s awesome and the photos turned out better than I could have dreamed of.

out being in front of a camera and looking awkward but Lauren makes you feel at ease and the photos look so natural. I was back and fourth on doing a video but I am so HAPPY that I did. Again I was very nervous about how I would look in a video but he captured all of the details as well as the vibe and atmosphere. Jared did an awesome job and I can't imagine not having one anymore. Together, they are a power duo and I one million/10 recommend booking them!!

re experience with WATB, I’m left speechless. Not only are Lauren and Jared the kindest, most thoughtful humans, but their work is truly incredible. They say a picture is worth a thousand words, but what WATB capture through their lenses say a million. What they gave my husband and I is so much more than just images- they gave us moments in time filled with emotion, personality, and everything I want to vividly remember about my wedding day 60 years from now. I truly cannot say enough good things about them and I promise that you will cherish what their talents can give you for years and years to come- we certainly will!!! 20/10 would recommend

he easiest people to work with. We met at our engagement shoot and I remember being so nervous thinking I was going to be awkward behind the camera but Lauren made us feel so comfortable. We got our photos less than a week later (no idea how she does it) and we were amazed at her work! Due to some health concerns involving my dad, we decided to do a private ceremony three weeks prior to our original wedding date. When we told Lauren what was going on, she assured us they would be there for us however that looked. In a very stressful and emotional time, I remember feeling so supported by them. They truly care deeply about their couples. We did a private ceremony and kept our original date as the reception. Lauren and Jared were there for both days and I can’t put into words the joy the photos and video brings me every time I look at them. I’ve watched the video every day since we got it and honestly probably will every day for the rest of my life. The Bowsers are a must at your wedding. If you have the opportunity to book them, DO IT NOW. I look forward to them photographing all milestones to come. They truly are the best!

et Lauren for our engagement pictures - the most relaxing human in the whole world at a time you are extremely self-conscious! I remember leaving that shoot thinking I ruined every photo. And then 3 days later (convinced Lauren doesn't sleep), I got back the most amazing set of pictures from our session... memories and photos I will cherish forever! She even put up with us lugging our puppy around for pics :) After that, I knew we had made the right decision, but somehow, Lauren and Jared managed to raise the bar even more for our wedding weekend. After months of making decisions and pointing others in directions, I have never felt so much relief than working with them on my wedding day. They have such a vision for the whole event, how to catch the big and little things alike, and it was downright refreshing to be told what to do by masters of their craft. We now have another set of memories - both photos and a video that brings tears to my eyes every time - and will cherish them for the rest of our lives. I look forward to the Bowsers photographing all the milestones to come and would mark this decision down as one of my best throughout my entire wedding planning process!

ommodating in finding the right "package" for our small celebration. Lauren far exceeded than what we could have expected. Not only is she a professional - clear communication, timely, and has a clear vision of what she wants to capture- but she made it fun. It was actually a highlight of my husband and I from our day of when we went off with Lauren to take our photos. She made it feel very natural and we had a great time taking photos. And the results were even better. Lauren the next day shared some of her favorites which was incredible as so many friends & family were asking for photos. Then when we received the full gallery, we were so excited and cannot wait to create a photobook. We WISH we could bring Lauren with us to Cabo for our big celebration 2.0. So overall, highly recommend Lauren and look forward to the next opportunity I get to work with her!

omfortable and got every shot/footage. Oh and when I say the photos and videos were fairytale like...they truly were. Cinematic and photographic perfection! 100000/10 would recommend!

h them on our wedding day. As soon as we got our wedding photos back (very quickly I might add) we got to relive the whole day! I was actually feeling kinda bummed it was all over until I got our photos! It brought back all the memories from special day! Highly, highly recommend! We will definitely be using them in the future as well for family photos:)

mean that, I will be trying to get her back to Chicago any chance I get!!! She captured the most beautiful, natural, and candid moments. Her photography is stunning and will honestly take your breath away. Never did I feel like I had to “pose” or that I couldn’t be myself. Lauren is like your best friend and makes you feel completely comfortable and at ease. She is warm, easy going, professional, and such a gem!!!! When I look at her photos I can feel every emotion from that moment. I am so lucky and grateful that my husband and I were able to have her as part of our day. I could not recommend her more!!!

ect video. I couldn't be more thankful that I invested in a video that captured intimate, fun, memorable moments for the best day of my life and seeing the way Lauren and Jared brought it to life was beyond my expectations! I watch it at least 5 times a day! I highly recommend them to help capture your day!

se. We had several hiccups during our day, as every wedding does, and every time, she was able to bring the energy back to a positive space with her gorgeous smile, her little speaker that she carried around and played our favorite music, and her relaxed confidence that can only come from YEARS of experience.

?!".... BOY was I wrong.. I found We Are The Bowers via Instagram and I instantly knew I couldn't have my wedding without them. From the first communication requesting information, through the entire experience, they have gone above and beyond what I ever expected. They are such special human beings and I couldn't be more grateful to have them by my side to capture our wedding day. We added videography at the last minute and that was the best decision we have ever made. They even included video snips from our engagement shoot, which was such a special surprise. If i could rate them 100 stars, I would. They even sent us the sweetest package after the wedding with a stack of prints, and our photos on the cutest thumb drive, and a beautiful note. You MUST select them for your special day - you won't regret it!!

. From our effortless and fun engagement session to canceling our wedding and eloping last minute, they were here for us every step of the way always answering questions and making sure we were supported. And our photos and video... nothing short of incredible. We had booked video for our large wedding and were debating having it for our 15 person elopement and let me tell you, if you too are debating, I highly recommend booking. This video is something we will cherish for the rest of our lives. I think we have watched it every single day since getting it back and we still tear up when we press play. We feel so honored to have been able to work with Lauren & Jared and cannot wait for them to shoot our party come 2021. Here's to becoming best friends with your vendors! Isn't that the best?!

and Jared were amazing with helping us day-of when it came to unexpected weather and a rushed timeline- always making me feel at ease and reassure me of the gorgeous pictures I'd get regardless! I wish they could follow us around for life! So professional and the pictures were just ~DREAMYYYY. A must have for your wedding!! I will look at their work every day for the rest of my life and smile so big!

people too. They made me and my husband feel completely comfortable in front of a camera. We used the Bowsers for our engagement session and wedding day and were always relaxed and had fun, which really showed in our photos and video. You feel as though you're just hanging out with really talented friends. They're organized, professional, and work well together and with other vendors. Their work is brilliant; they are undoubtedly experts in their craft. The pictures still portray you, just the best version of you. The video I will watch a million times in my life, I'm sure. It's perfection. I am so grateful that we have these moments captured so perfectly for the rest of time. My husband and I agreed early on that we would prioritize photography and videography and that these would likely be the largest portion of our wedding budget. If we had known the pictures and video we would receive, we would have confidently paid anything —they are priceless. Thank you Lauren and Jared!

ill so important to us to have beautiful photos to remember our big day by. Even though we had never met, I trusted that Lauren's photography style was going to be exactly what we were hoping for. Lauren completely went with the flow for our somewhat untraditional plans and captured photos that really show everyone's personality and look so natural. We also have a one year old toddler who added to the challenge, and some of my favorite pictures are of her. Most importantly, we love that the photos are classic and timeless- the type of wedding photos that don't scream "WEDDING PHOTOS," but rather are beautiful and simple and will always remind us of our day.

le and relaxed taking photos with no pressure! A huge reason my husband and I went with The Bowsers was because I knew with 100% confidence that my wedding photos would be stunning, and that’s one less thing to worry about on wedding day! Everything they touch turns to gold✨ I’m so thankful to have had We Are The Bowsers as such an important part of our wedding! Their attention to detail is unreal and the personal touches that they add to the entire experience made everything that much sweeter. Working with them was A DREAM!

pher and is everything and more. Then, after listening to my girlfriends on how their biggest regret about their wedding is not doing a video...I booked Jared and wow am I happy I did! If you are on the fence on a video...do it - best decision, period. Talent aside...Lauren is a true gem of a human. We went from a destination wedding to staying in our home town a handful of days before our wedding (thank you covid) and Lauren literally pulled out all the stops to help me replan the wedding. She used her connections with other vendors to find me a florist, references for hair/makeup, you name it...everything was replanned in 24 hours with her help. In conclusion, the way Lauren and Jared work together is so sweet and move in unison capturing every detail that you never knew you needed. There are so many photos and captures on the video that are moments in time that we will always treasure. I look forward to a long time of Lauren documenting my little families life and hope the same for you! My best advice regarding photography/videography...go for the best of the best - this is what you are left with at the end of the day. One day is gone in a blink and these snapshots are what you will treasure for years to come. We Are The Bowsers are those people.

auren was such a pleasure! She managed to capture beautiful photos of my family that we will cherish forever. She worked awesome with my very active toddler who could barely sit still. Can’t wait to use her again!

ing photos hire them!! They are so professional but make you feel like you’ve been friends forever, I will be hiring them for all our monumental family moments!

g was cancelled by our venue 3 short weeks before. It was important for my husband and I to get married on our day even if it was eloping with just family and a few friends - which is what we did! I had reached out to Lauren once we figured out a plan to elope and they offered to reduce our original package to an elopement package because the timing of our wedding significantly reduced. We Are The Bowsers documenting our day through photo and video was the best decision we made when we decided to elope. They captured our intimate front yard wedding perfectly and I am in love with our photos (that are now hung all over our apartment) and the video that allowed all of our friends and family that could not attend view our special day like they were there. I 100% recommend this duo, not only because they are amazing at what they do, but they are also wonderful, genuine people!

duced to the Bowsers by our incredible planner, but unfortunately they were already booked for our original wedding weekend (not a surprise, they are so talented and word gets out!!); but of course, we continued to follow and fall in love with their work (natural light, candid moments, and real love). Fast-forward to COVID, we ultimately elected to postpone our bigger venue ceremony and wedding, but still could not wait to elope and be married (because really, that's all that matters, right?!). On a prayer and a whim, we reached out to see if *maybe* the Bowsers would be available.. miraculously they were now open for our date and more than willing to be a part of our day. In the midst of the pandemic and chaos in the world, Lauren and Jared provided us excitement, peace and support as we planned for a completely different (but completely perfect) beach elopement and AirBNB afterparty, complete with wedding details from Amazon and a dress from Lulu's lol. They were overly flexible with us to scout areas on the beach for our ceremony, love on our fur babies, ultimately made our entire day seem like a dream - and most importantly, captured incredible memories for us to share with our family and loved ones that could not be a present due to the pandemic. We will treasure that forever. Lauren had some sneak peeks back to us within 24 hours, and our entire gallery and video was available within the week!! I will never forget as we received the gallery and video as we drove home from our minimoon - we could not stop gawking at the photos and I could not stop bawling like a baby over the video. All things work for good. We are so thankful for the Bowsers, and cannot give enough love for their amazing attitudes, professionalism, INCREDIBLE talent, and friendship. Without a doubt, we recommend Lauren and Jared for all things photography and videography. They are AMAZING, and we are so thankful for the opportunity to have met and worked with them.

when we had to reschedule during COVID and even when we decided to change locations last minute. She had us laughing the entire time. We love the way the photos turned out! We would recommend working with the Bowser’s to anyone.

d rain delays, it was the best experience. She was so outgoing and sweet and made us comfortable right from the start. The pictures turned out even better than we could have ever wanted, and we can’t wait to use them for our save the dates!

e communication process was so easy and Lauren helped me with the timeline of wedding day to make sure there was enough scheduled time for photo and video footage. Everything went off perfectly! My husband and I absolutely love ALL the photos and video!! We can't thank Lauren and Jared enough for all of their amazing work and dedication to our special day. I would recommend them 100% of the time!!

olors, better than we could ever imagine. Not only did they drive down to Miami for the most amazing editorial engagement shoot EVER (literally these two are down for anything from cocktails to ice cream to stopping traffic for us) but documented our wedding perfectly. So many wedding photos come out looking staged, air-brushed, and fake, but looking back at our album I could actually feel the energy of that night. Not only was the quality superb (like honestly these two are wizards) but they captured the true emotion of the day. I still have people wanting to use my photos as inspiration for their own weddings. They are an incredibly special team, and their mastery is real. I can't recommend them enough. Thank you so much, Lauren and Jared!!

n from this team has really feel like art, and you can tell they take the time to capture the candid moments in such a beautiful way. Lauren’s photography does not shy away from reflecting each and every one of the couple’s moments - whether it’s funny, happy, awkward or loving, she can make them all look beautiful! I am one of the unfortunate brides that had to postpone my wedding due to Covid, but Lauren has been really flexible and understanding about the situation. Our engagement photos so beautifully captured one of the happiest times of my life, and I know that no matter when I get married, there’s no one else I’d rather have shooting my big day!

my first email went out to them! I had a month in mind to get married but I truly picked the date based off of their availability. I promise it is worth it to have some wiggle room with your date if it means having this dynamic duo shooting your wedding! Not only are Lauren and Jared such rays of sunshine, they are beyond talented. Their style is one of a kind that I promise all of your family and friends will go crazy over! They are truly a rare gem! They are super responsive and helpful! If they go out of town and are away from their email/phone they always give you a heads up which is super nice! They truly care about their work and couples. I feel as if they are not just my wedding photographer/ videographer anymore but my friends because of how genuine they are. Not only are my wedding photos and video absolutely breath taking that continue to make me, my husband, and family cry tears of joy, they were also such a blast doing our engagement session with and having on our wedding day. My husband literally said his favorite part of our big day was taking sunset photos, which is never what a groom likes to do. However, Lauren and Jared made the experience a blast, even for a guy who does not typically love taking photos! Besides your marriage and memories, the only things you will take away from your wedding day are your photos and video. I promise you will be the happiest bride if you hire this amazing couple! My gallery and video were better than anything I ever expected. I promise it is worth the extra money to hire both photo and video, because it is something you will cherish every day for the rest of your life and these two will blow your mind with how incredible they shoot your big day. Thank you for everything Lauren and Jared, you two truly made our dreams come true and we cannot thank you enough! We cannot wait for one day to have kiddos and call you guys to shoot our family portraits! We are blessed to have you guys in our life!!
