“Lauren truly enjoys her job and it shows. She has a way of making her clients have fun and feel comfortable in front of the camera. She helps with so many other aspects of a session, from choosing the right outfits to picking the best photos for prints and gifts. She does an amazing job!” — Rebecca
My process is unlike any other. I have spent years making it easy for you.
Each immediate family gets their own questionnaire then I help coordinate your chaos into a date, location, style, and color scheme that works for everyone.
Everyone gets all the digital images and everyone can get artwork!
When you fill out the inquiry form let me know you are interested in an Extended Family Session!
Extended Family Sessions start at $1650+tax
and include One Collection + ALL edited digital images.
You can add collections just like with a family session.
Well first I'm going to give you a call to talk about your family and what is important to capture right now. Then we'll talk about how you want to enjoy the photos everyday. I'll make some suggestions for location, wardrobe, and photo printing ideas based on our chat.
If you're a veteran to family photos then the prep phase will be easy for you. But in case you're a newbie, I'll be sending you perfectly timed emails to help get you ready for the big day. More wardrobe tips, posing tips, and ideas to help your family relax on session day will show up in your inbox. You really don't want to skip reading these.
By the time session day arrives, you should feel comfortable and confident to just be in the moment with your people. You really don't have to do much else besides enjoy your family. Leave it to me to get the right angles, to tell Y'all when to look at the camera, and fix something that looks out of place.
After your session, I edit all of the best images and create a private gallery online for you. That usually takes about 10 to 14 business days. I'll reach out and let you know when they're ready.
Then you get to download ALL of your Images and pick out your Incredible Artwork RIGHT AWAY! You will also have the opportunity to purchase additional artwork and print products at reduced A la Carte flat rate prices.
When it comes to location scouting, I’m a big believer in finding tucked away corners. I’ve built relationships with local landowners, farmers and small businesses to create a network of private, beautiful outdoor locations that aren’t open to the general public like this Private Rose Farm. That means you’re not traipsing to the same five spots as everyone else in Houston or have to spend your session in a crowded park. We’ll have our own space to explore together.
I serve families across greater Houston, but you can often find me back in my NOLA hometown for photo sessions or chasing down wildflowers from SE Texas up to the Hill Country. I’d love to go explore with you!
My work doesn’t end when the camera is packed away. Helping you choose, design and deliver your tangible art is my way of taking care of you. You’re busy enough, you don’t need someone dumping a billion digital files into your lap and skedaddling.
You can count on me to walk you through my curated print options, help you choose the perfect products to fill out your gallery wall or add to your shelves, and guide you through ordering and delivery.
Seamless ordering, custom guidance + design, and museum-quality heirloom pieces turn your memories into art. The coolest part is that it's all built in and you don't have to choose between Print or Digital. They are both included!
I take a limited amount of families per year so that I can provide the best service.
It's best to book your session 2-3 months in advance.
"We had such a fantastic experience with Lauren! She was great with my kids, and she made us feel comfortable and at ease. She was very professional, and our photos came out beautiful. We will treasure them forever. Highly recommend!"
