hi, i’m Lauren.

Artist, encourager, beach bum, and your
go-to-girl for honest photographs.


I’m a Minnesota based photographer and creative with a decade of experience capturing love, laughter, and all the beautifully unscripted moments in between. Photography is my way of connecting with people, telling their stories, noticing and preserving the magic in life.

I thrive on good energy, golden light, and the kind of candid moments that make me look a little longer. Whether it’s an intimate elopement in the mountains, a new addition to your family, or an in-between moment with the people you love most, I’m here to document it with warmth, artistry, and a touch of adventure.

When I’m not behind the camera, I’m with my family cooking and traveling, at a museum or baseball game, dreaming up new creative projects… then probably chasing a sunset somewhere. If you’re looking for a photographer who is equal parts storyteller and hype-person, let’s chat – I’d love to capture your story!

Words I live By

“And so with the sunshine and the great bursts of leaves growing on the trees, just as things grow in fast movies, I had that familiar conviction that life was beginning over again with the summer.”

― F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby
