Meet lauren | A South Jersey Wedding Photographer 

HEY HEYYY!! IT'S ME!

So, you already know I'm Lauren, a South Jersey Wedding Photographer! You should know I’m super outgoing and always trying to live my best life! I’m 1,000% a proud #catlady and have 3 cat babies: Luna, Sully and Bug. I’m married to my bestest friend, Cole, and we got married right after our 10-year anniversary in October 2020. I’m a TOTAL foodie. Mexican, Italian, pizza, fries, all the noms (will travel for food). I frickin' love to travel and am known to book spontaneous + last minute trips. I'm always torn at which I love more, mountains or beaches, but the beach is where I grew up and it will always have a special spot in my heart. 

Capturing love is my most favorite thing, and seeing how incredibly unique it is to each couple. I admire couples that pay attention to small details and intentions that feel so profoundly THEM. When couples stand in their unique story and are truly unapologetic about how they want their day, no matter what family or society says. Want to break the mold of boring, traditional photos and have nothing but fun? Looking for a ride-or-die photographer bestie? 

I went to school for fashion design and have many other creative passions including voice acting, so I guess you can say being creative makes up a huge part of who I am. I've been doing photography ever since I can remember but started becoming more serious in high school when I took 35mm film classes, which included the entire process. From rolling film to capturing to darkroom room to developing etc. I ALMOST went to school for photography but decided to stick with my fashion design journey that I had worked so hard at. Slowly, I started to realize that city life and corporate jobs weren't for me, so I picked photography back up on the side while I was still working 9-5. After photographing all types of things: landscapes, food, products, fashion, it wasn’t until I photographed couples that I knew I found what fueled my fire. I loved making others feel beautiful and capturing their love stories and connections. My passion was couples and wedding photography. Flash forward to 2020, the pandemic hit, I was let go from my job… and it was my BIGGEST blessing. Already in the process of saying fuck it and ready to go all in, the pandemic opened up all the opportunities for me and I went full time with photography. I officially launched my business in the fall of 2020.

To me, we should ALWAYS be romanticizing our lives. I want my couples to feel like they are the starring roles in a love story... Who doesn't love a romcom? Life is too short, and I'm someone who believes in living life to the fullest!
