WELCOME

I’m Lauren — the face behind the camera — and I’m so glad you’re here.

As a mom of three, my love for photography grew right alongside my family. I’ve seen firsthand how quickly time passes, and it’s such a joy to now be able to freeze those fleeting moments for others. Whether it’s the sweet bond between a mother and child, the pure innocence of babies and little ones, or the love and laughter of a full family session, I’m passionate about capturing those connections in a way that you’ll cherish forever.

I travel near and far to create beautiful sessions — from golden hour family shoots, Fresh 48 hospital photos, beach or studio sessions, to the cozy comfort of your own home. Wherever your vision takes us, I’m there. Over the years, I’ve curated a client closet with 50+ dresses, plus plenty of adorable baby and children’s outfits and props. I truly love what I do, and I can’t wait to meet you and help tell your story through my lens.

“Lauren was AMAZING. Run don’t walk to book your photography session with her. She has incredible talent and made my husband and I felt so comfortable at our maternity shoot. She’s super flexible and easy going which makes the shoot effortless and enjoyable. Her photos come back so beautiful I cannot wait to see the whole gallery. I cannot wait to use her again in the future! HIGHLY recommend Lauren”

MY WORK

“You want photos that freeze time and transport you back to not only a place..but a special feeling”

Family

Your session is about you — your family, your vibe, and your vision. My role is simply to help bring it to life. There are no unrealistic expectations for your kids to “pose” or be “perfect.” My goal is to capture your little ones just as they are — playful, spontaneous, and full of life. When they’re being themselves, that’s when the magic happens, and that’s when I can truly capture their natural beauty.

I want to photograph your family in the raw, joyful moments — those simple, real interactions that show your unconditional love for each other. We’ll be silly, share a laugh, and run around, and in the midst of all that, we’ll find the moments that matter most: the connection, the warmth, the love that’s uniquely yours. 

Maternity

Whether you’re expecting your first, second, or third baby, every pregnancy is a unique and beautiful chapter that deserves to be remembered. This is the only time you’ll carry this baby, and that alone is something worth celebrating.

My maternity sessions are relaxed, natural, and designed to help you feel completely at ease. I gently guide you with simple prompts so you can settle into the moment, feeling confident and connected. You can choose to do a solo session, include your partner, or bring your other little ones along — whatever feels right for you.

FRESH 48

Fresh 48 photography has quietly become one of my deepest passions — capturing those sacred first hours after birth, when everything is new, raw, and unbelievably real. The wrinkled hands, the hospital bracelets, the sleepy stretches… all the tiny details that fade far too quickly.

These sessions take place within the first 48 hours of your baby’s life — a window of time that holds so much emotion, tenderness, and wonder. There’s a quiet magic in those moments, and it’s my greatest joy to preserve them for you, just as they are. 

Newborn

Those first days of motherhood unfold in a soft blur — late-night feedings, sleepy snuggles, and the quiet wonder of getting to know this tiny soul you carried. It’s a sacred, fleeting time — one that passes in a heartbeat, even as it changes you forever.

As a mama of three, I know how quickly these moments slip into memory. That’s why I’m here — to gently capture the magic in all its raw, beautiful truth. The curled toes. The wispy hair. The way they fit perfectly in your arms. My newborn sessions are all about connection — not perfection — preserving the tender bond between you and your baby in the most heartfelt way.

BEACH SESSIONS

There’s something magical about feeling the sand between your toes, walking along the shoreline, and watching the sun dip below the horizon. It’s a place where beauty and serenity meet, and it’s perfect for capturing unforgettable moments. Whether it’s summer or winter, the beach always offers a peaceful backdrop for any session.

I travel to many beautiful beaches, including Long Beach Island, Ocean City, Cape May, Wildwood, Ventnor, Sea Isle, and beyond. If you have a favorite beach — whether it’s a special spot you visit on vacation or one that’s close to home — just let me know, and we can make it happen. 

“I had a family shoot with my 2 year old and 2 month old baby and Lauren was absolutely amazing with both of them. She captured the most breathtaking photos and I am so happy to have them to look back on for years to come. My husband and I left the shoot and said to each other it was like seeing an old friend and was by far the most comfortable we have been taking pictures. Lauren has the most relaxed, welcoming personality ever and she was a joy to work with. We can’t wait to work with her again in the future!”
