Chris + Grace

For the past year or so, I’ve been driving by this little nook and cranny of parkland that looks a bit more like California than Maryland.  Each time as I drove by, I found myself wishing for a couple to appear so that I could photograph their portraits in such a pretty place with such perfect light!  When Gracie reached out to me about photographing her maternity portraits, I knew the perfect place!  On Sunday we had a blast exploring together and relishing in the fact that these two are about to be parents!  I am so blessed to be a first-hand witness of their journey together and this new piece of the puzzle.  Enjoy a few of my favorites from our time together!

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.
