Where vibrant energy meets timeless imagery.
Kansas City wedding photography with a soulful, celebratory spirit.
Your wedding day should feel effortless, full of joy, and entirely yours. It’s about soaking in the laughter, the embraces, and the little moments that make your story unique. Couples who value presence over posing want to feel comfortable, celebrated, and free to enjoy the day as it unfolds, knowing it will be captured authentically. From the quiet glances to the electric energy of the dance floor, every moment is preserved with intention, color, and emotion. The result is a curated gallery of images that are timeless yet vibrant, real yet artful. A true reflection of the love, connection, and joy that defined your day.
I bring a calm, uplifting presence to every wedding, guiding when needed, stepping back when not, and always keeping the day feeling effortless. With a love for vibrant color, genuine emotion, and real connection, I use a mix of digital and film photography to create images that feel alive, timeless, and completely true to your story.

Let's get to know each other
i'm Lauren!
Lauren is incredible to work with. I knew basically right after our first meeting she would make a great fit for capturing our wedding. We discussed style and overall vibe, and I felt that our visions aligned especially well. I wanted someone confident who would provide direction while being receptive of other ideas. From our engagement session all the way up through the wedding day, Lauren communicated efficiently and demonstrated so much expertise. All of that, and I haven’t even touched on her work! Suffice to say, it has been absolutely stunning. She came into the day with great ideas and direction and was accommodating to our funny requests (like a quick pre-wedding bar run for espresso martinis). She was super speedy getting us sneak peeks for both shoots, and they were all beautiful. I truly can’t wait to see them all. If you’re considering booking Lauren at all, do it. You won’t be disappointed!!
"Having Lauren document our wedding was the smartest decision we could have made, aside from getting married of course. Every single moment was beautifully captured, which was so important since we got married during the pandemic. We were able to share with family and friends who were not able to make it, just how truly perfect our wedding really was. The day I could never forget is one I can always remember thanks to Lauren. Too bad I likely won’t ever get married again otherwise I absolutely would give her my return business 100 out of 5 stars. Having Lauren document our wedding was the smartest decision we could have made, aside from getting married of course."
