I
Like many creative business owners, photography has been a passion of mine for as long a I can remember. Out of university, I followed a career in marketing, working with some of the biggest brands and retailers in the world, which gave me invaluable experience that I now use in all aspects of my photography. But I could never quite shake the itch that there was something more I wanted to do - I wanted to lean into my creativity and learn to embrace being more myself. At the age of 28, I finally invested in some photography training, and I haven’t put the camera down since!
Hi, I’m Lauren!
Couple my eye for photography with a love of design, events, travel and food and it’s led me to a creative career working with some of the biggest brands and retailers in the world. My vision is to use photography to tell stories and and create connections. I have a lot of fun finding beauty in the ordinary. I love light (specifically shadows), geometry and colour and am always looking to for ways I can portray things differently. I’m not here for boring photography - I like warmth, depth and feeling.
The ins and outs…
I’m a 5’11” thirty-year-old dog mum, obsessed with all the things which make life beautiful. I love nothing more than a nice hotel or a cosy restaurant and I can spend hours wandering round a new city with my camera in-hand. I’m uncool, and i’m always tripping over something (usually just my own feet). I’ll drink pretty much anything but a cold pint on a warm Friday night is my favourite feeling. I’m an introvert but I can chat for hours to the right person. Lesley Knope is my hero. Mexican is my favourite type of food. I’m a better person when the sun comes out. I use too many exclamation points/smiley faces in my emails and I have to go through and remove them before I press send. Most of this isn’t relevant to your photography brief, but it’s nice to know i’m a human, right?
I can’t wait to meet you!
My approach…
I’m looking for the things you didn’t see. I believe in documenting your day as it feels; joyful, messy and wonderfully human. I’m drawn to the laughter between friends, the fleeting gazes and the gentle hand squeezes.
Authenticity + Feeling
I aim to be quiet and present - allowing your day to unfold naturally and without interruption. I’m not loud or intrusive; I blend into the background so you can stay fully present with your favourite people.
Unobtrusive
By gently guiding instead of posing, your photos stay honest and full of life. I describe my work as having a documentary edge; which means I capture it exactly as it unfolds.
Natural + Unposed

If you’re looking for fun + relaxed photography, drop me a line.
Described as calm, passionate and trustworthy, and, a little bit goofy myself, i’ve been assured i’m exceptionally good at making people feel comfortable in front of the camera. I obsess over all the wonderful details which make your wedding or business unique. I believe in building great relationships and my aim is for us both to have a great time working together so you can love the experience as much as you love the photographs.
