During a family photoshoot, Lauren took some gorgeous photos of our 4-month-old and 22-month-old children. She utilized her creative skills to make the kids smile and laugh, resulting in some truly heartwarming moments. Lauren's amiability and cooperative nature made working with her a delight. Additionally, Lauren took some incredible headshots of my husband, which turned out marvelously. I cannot speak highly enough of Lauren's exceptional photography skills and would recommend her to anyone.
