Local Photography in Lees Summit, MO

Photography is not just taking pictures, it is creating art. I have over 10 years of experience capturing life’s beautiful moments. I am passionate about making sessions fun, stress-free, and individualized for clients. I help with planning outfits, reluctant dads, all posing, event timelines - anything to alleviate stress so clients love their sessions and come back time and again!

My approach is a mix of documentary and dramatic portraiture. Through out the day I capture candid and key moments in a journalistic style and for the portraits I do a mix of the common soft airy look and well lit portraits with a bit of a noir style that have more of a commercial feel and look. I love photography and creating new work. Weddings give me an opportunity to create new images with great subjects that have great chemistry.

Need a photo stylist, art director, or photographer? Hi! I'm Lauren, and I'd love to assist! After graduating in the top 10% of my class at The Hallmark Institute of Photography, I embarked on my journey in commercial photography in 2016. Over the years, I've discovered a real passion for photo styling and art direction. I approach each project with deep meaning, making me a profound storyteller and a creative, conceptual thinker. I'm dedicated to inspiring others and sparking creativity through visuals that genuinely connect with a brand's core message. Recognizing visual patterns comes naturally to me, which helps me stay ahead of trends and craft innovative work. I pour all my intention and strategic insight into every detail, creating meaningful and impactful images from start to finish. I’d love the opportunity to help tell your story in a way that truly resonates and inspires!
