I am a Canberra based documentary and lifestyle photographer with a focus on motherhood and family photography and everything in-between. I try to capture how life feels in my photographs, not just how it looks.

My two beautiful children and my husband are always there to support everything I do. When I’m not taking photos (or editing them), I am usually spending time with my family, playing with our dog, drinking tea, working in the garden or starting a new project.

My FAMILY IS My world and capturing them is so important to me

Becoming a mother changed everything for me. I had my daughter in 2021 and I wanted to document every moment, to hold on to time so that I wouldn’t miss anything. These photographs, and the ones I continue to take of my family, are so precious to me. As my kids grow up they don’t always remember things from their early years, like their old house, family holidays, pets and family members who are no longer with us. What they do remember is the love and magic we create for our family and having these photos to look back on helps form their memories from their early years. 

My sessions

I love to find the beauty in everything. I prefer unscripted, genuine interaction over staged poses. Those moments where things go softly out of focus, photographing life as it happens.

"Lauren photographed our engagement session and made the entire experience feel effortless and relaxed, particularly for a couple like us who initially felt quite awkward in front of the camera. She was warm, personable, and genuinely lovely to work with, and most importantly, she captured stunning images that we will treasure for a lifetime."

"We had a wonderful experience with Lauren - she is as sweet as she seems on social media. Our session was perfect - we showed up, chatted a little, she took out her camera, got down on my kids level, and allowed us to simply play. It was amazing! The images we have are ones I will cherish forever."
