About Lauren
SANTA BARBARA WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER
 
I grew up surrounded by my mom’s scrapbooks — pages filled with moments I was too young to remember, yet somehow felt connected to. That early exposure to nostalgia shaped the way I see the world and how deeply I value memories. Years later, I still find myself chasing that same feeling. I rarely leave home without a camera, whether it’s my favorite point-and-shoot or my full setup, it’s become an extension of how I move through life. That love for documenting connection and preserving emotion naturally led me to photographing weddings. I still pinch myself that this is my reality!
Film photography, in particular, holds a special place in my heart. The tactile nature of film, it's depth and authenticity, allows me to create timeless, artful memories that feel as intimate as they are cinematic. My approach to weddings is rooted in this passion, capturing not just moments, but the emotions and energy that radiate between two people in love. From quiet vows under oak trees to the laughter that carries through golden hour, I’m there to document it all in a way that’s as unique as the love stories I’m trusted to preserve.
Classically trained in film photography in New York, living in Santa Barbara, and ready to document your love wherever it takes you.
