Wedding photography custom proposal for
Virginia & David
May 15, 2026
I loved getting to chat and hear more about your sunset-inspired wedding celebration at London Town next May. It sounds like it's going to be such a wonderful way to welcome your friends and family to a "non-destination / destination" wedding in Annapolis.
I love what you said, about the photography experience... that you want to preserve the feelings of the day. I hope we'll have the chance to create beautiful images that help transport you back to exactly how you felt throughout your wedding weekend (Thursday & Friday counts as the weekend!).
Virginia, David & Miles ;)
cheers,

WHAT WE DO
“... not only is her work flawless, but she is truly a joy to be around.”
- Greg & Melanie
past couple
we understand what
matters most
It's the little moments that you don't want to forget about such a special day. We work hard to provide the helpful guidance that results in beautiful photos in minimal time — so you don't miss out on the moments with the people you love most.
we pay attention to
every detail
We know that wedding planning involves a lot of decisions that all culminate to create the feeling and vibe of your celebration - one that's as unique as you are as a couple! We love to capture every little detail of your event's design, every decision you made to create the story of your day, and the way it all unfolds.
we offer diverse
perspectives
Why would you settle for one when you can have two? ... think more images, multiple angles, and added support. Every couple has a second photographer on their photo team to ensure we can be in more than one place at a time. It's this dual presence that allows us to really capture the candid moments that are unfolding.
we value a
personalized approach
From strategic planning with your event planner to create a seamless photography experience, to an included engagement session that let's us see how you feel the most like yourselves in front of the lens, we ensure that you're not spending your whole day taking photos.
We deliver
beautiful images, quickly
One of our favorite things about the way we photograph a day is that we value getting your images to your with a quick turnaround. Industry standard is about 8-12 weeks for you to receive your final wedding imahes, but we deliver in 5-6 weeks with next day previews. We don't hold your images hostage - we want you to enjoy, delight in them, and share them with your favorite people!
"Lauren has mastered the art of providing gentle direction.
- Robby & Laura
We felt like she took the time to understand us as a couple and it shone through in the photos of us!"

Nothing glows brighter than the heart awakened to the unseen light of love that lives within it.
Choosing a wedding photographer is about more than just hiring someone with a camera to document your day.
In life and in business, people matter most.
Your wedding photographer should be someone who makes you feel comfortable, someone who eases the craziness of a wedding day, and makes you remember what matters most.
In addition to acting as photographer, I love wearing the many hats a wedding day involves - as a quiet observer, veil fluff-er, bouquet holder, bad-joke-teller, and cheerleader as you say “I do," I promise that every time
you look at an image of your wedding day, you’ll be reminded of exactly how you felt.
I started this business because it's an honor to watch the connection between two people grow through every season. Though I’ve been featured in some my favorite wedding magazines and blogs, I’m most proud of showcasing each and every couple’s story and the start to their legacy.

I love engagement sessions because it gives us an opportunity to get to know one another before the pressure and time inevitable constraints of the big day. "Practicing" at your engagement session let's you spend more time with your guests on the big day! It's also a great way to showcase your personalities in a more casual setting that is significant to the two of you. Win, win, win!
Get comfortable in front of the camera, before the big day.
Not getting married in your home city? Engagement sessions are the perfect excuse to include a destination in your wedding photography experience. I've traveled from California to New York City and more for engagement portraits and am always going where my couples want to take me! Feel free to reach out for specific travel fees if this applies.
