Instagram Archives Pt IV — Lockdown Ramblings & Pregnancy #2

We were supposed to celebrate our 7th wedding anniversary in England in April! As you can imagine, plans shifted a bit… 🙃
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It may not be England but this little beach trip away with @morganaswann has been the sweetest. Grateful for time away with my best friend!!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
… oh and the view today wasn’t too shabby either 😉
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

 


 

I saved these beauties from getting ruined by the torrential downpours last week and they spent days on our counter brightening my day!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
With the all the heavy in the world, sometimes a little pocket of happy helps lighten the load… and if you ask me, flowers always help ✨💛
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What’s something that gives you a little pocket of joy!?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

 

 


 

There’s no shortage of laughter with these two these days!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Grateful doesn’t quite cut it 💛

Thank you @reneehphoto for capturing this sweet season for us!! I’m sure I’ll be sharing these portraits a few more times! 😉

 

 


 

Just your daily dose of cute from a certain little miss who is growing up way to fast these days. I think this fall with her has been my favorite!

Her current obsessions: squeezing her puppies (relentlessly!), eating “iceeeee”, throwing leaves, going down slides, hiding, stealing sunglasses, running outside, and sniffing/picking all the flowers!

(We won’t talk about the fact that she plucked the only two buds off my new rose bush and brought them to me as a gift 🥴🙈😂)

Good thing she’s cute, because she sure is sassy, too!

 

 


 

Who’s up for another round of Instagram vs Reality Halloween edition!?!

In what may be my favorite rendition yet, helmet vs Reesey girl.

Good thing we have this little astronaut always keeping us laughing and on our toes!! (Even if her dad kept calling her a Martian all night👽🙄)

Happy Halloween, friends! 🎃 👻

 

 


 

We are so excited to share that we are adding a new member to our crew this May!!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Our journey to both of our babies hasn’t been the simplest and so we are just filled to the brim with gratitude for this little miracle! ✨
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We also know that posts like this can be bittersweet for people who are in a season waiting or loss — just know we’re thinking of you too 💛
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We cannot wait to see Reesey girl embrace her new role as big sister!!! Though based off these photos, I’m thinking she’s not so sure… or maybe a little *too* sure 😂🙈
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

 


 

So much to be thankful for, but these two are always at the top of my list 💛✨
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Hope y’all are having a magical Thanksgiving weekend! … now it’s time to deck the halls! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Thank you @reneehphoto for one of my favorite pics ever of two of my favorites!!

 

 


 

T’S A… What do you think.. is the newest member of the Swann house a boy or a girl!?!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
👇🏼 Leave your guess below 💙💗

 

 


 

.. BOY!!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We are so excited to be adding our #SullivanJamesSwann to our crew!!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I get the feeling that our life is going to have a lot more cars and dirt in our future 😉 We can’t wait to meet you little man!! Is it May, yet!?!

 

 


 

Safe to say our Cindy Lou Who had a very Merry Christmas, complete with new bubble bath!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Don’t want to forget how fun this year has been celebrating with #ReeseAdalineSwann! 💛

Wife, mama, wielder of light & joy, and capturer of moments.  I thrive off of conversation and genuine connection.  In between wrangling our kiddos, and hanging my husband, you'll find me dreaming up my next idea or creative endeavour.  It's these things that culminate to give my imagery a warmth and joy to them - the greatest compliment I could receive.

I'M LAUREN

THE JOURNAL

Lauren grew up spending her summers at the shore, and when she and Nick got together, she couldn't help but introduce him, too!  Their session in New Jersey was filled with gorgeous light, sweet smiles, and so much love & laughter.

Jersey Shore Engagement 

Connor and Alli's wedding celebration was full of lush florals, gorgeous details, and a whole lot of joy.  Their first look was one of the most sacred moments I've witness on a wedding day... filled with so much delight and love!

Stone Tower Winery Wedding

One of my greatest inspirations comes from exploring and the California coast fulfills that wanderlust like nothing else.  Anytime I have rolling hills and oceanside views, I'm in heaven.

"Lauren made everything fun and flexible."

Nate & sofi, baltimore Maryland

She's the ultimate hypewoman. I was pretty nervous about being photographed and Lauren made everything fun and flexible. Honestly, I can't imagine the day without her and her team. They were wonderful and hearing from Lauren was always a genuine delight.
