I pride myself on being able to work with couples of all backgrounds and cultures. I am outgoing, energetic and have a true passion for documenting your day. Each wedding tells a unique story and it is my job to tell your story. I have been photographing weddings for over 6 years . Prior to that I worked weddings as a 2nd photographer and an assistant to several regional photographers. I felt that by working with several different companies I was able to gather experience from several perspectives. I shoot with the Nikon series of cameras and Lens. During the "off season" you can catch me photographing local High school sporting events.

Working with Cassie was fantastic from start to finish. She was super responsive, helpful, and on top of everything. She was so patient with our rowdy groomsmen and braved the cold with us for our pictures and ceremony. She jumped at the chance to take pictures at all the best moments. It was grey and cloudy all day, but when we saw this sunset open up over the lake, she literally ran outside with us to get these pictures. Our friends and family have made multiple comments about how great she was! We can not recommend her enough!!

I’m Emily — the one behind the camera, your hype girl, biggest fan + newest friend (because yes, inevitably I want to be best friends with all of my “clients”, feels weird evening calling you that) I have been chasing my nieces and nephews around with a camera for years, and following around the photographers at my siblings’ weddings for over 5 years now! I have always loved flipping through old family albums, reliving memories through photos - so about 3 years ago I decided to pursue my dreams and launched this business!

Emily is truly a wonder. Her work is incredible, and she makes you feel like you are the most special people in the world when she is photographing you! Not to mention- her talent is unmatched. We are so lucky to have had Emily capture the most perfect wedding day. 10/10 recommend having Emily as your photographer!

Photography isn’t just what I do, it’s how I slow down and soak in life’s fleeting moments. Whether I’m capturing the glow of maternity, the quiet joy between couples, or the laughter and chaos of family life, I aim to tell honest stories through my lens.

Weddings celebrations are more than just events. They are the ultimate story of your love for one another. I have been photographing weddings for 10 years, and no two stories are the same. Each are unique and capture the essence of who you are as a couple. I love telling peoples wedding stories through images. Let's capture those memories together.

I cannot say enough good things about Joanna. From the first time we did a video call with her, my husband and I simply loved her vibe, and that never changed. Throughout the planning process, she was incredibly helpful and patient in answering questions, assisting with building our day-of timeline, and navigating creating a family shot list for my large, blended family. I felt so good having her support throughout the process and it made me so confident going into the wedding day. On the day of the wedding, she was INCREDIBLE. Prompt, punctual, efficient, organized, and--once again--great energy. Even when our shuttle bus didn't show up and I found out during our couple portraits pre-ceremony, she was able to keep me in the present moment and keep getting great photos. Joanna provided guidance and support with posing, but was also open to in-the-moment ideas my husband and I had. (She also allows you to add time day-of, which I didn't think we'd need, but was so glad she offered once the shuttle fiasco happened and we needed to bump everything by a half hour!) We haven't received our full gallery yet, but even from the sneak peek photos, I can already tell she captured the essence of our day perfectly. The images are beautiful and beyond my wildest dreams. It's also worth noting that we had a very dark theater as our venue, and she was able to accommodate with whatever light was available, including bringing equipment to make it work. Amazing! Also included in the sneak peek was an image of my husband and I talking to one another right after we got married that I didn't even know she took because I didn't even realize she was there in that moment- she is really just that good! I could gush about Joanna and her work all day, but the point is this: Book Joanna now; thank me later.

I am just a bubbly extrovert with a serious love for love & ice cream. Growing up, my dream job was to become a wedding planner. The wedding scene fascinated me! Thankfully, my lack of organizational skills shifted me away from that and directed me towards photography instead. Photographing a wedding day is one of my greatest joys, and I truly believe it's what I was made to do. I'm here to hold your hand when you're nervous, pin boutonnieres when no one else knows how, and to give you images that are timeless, romantic, authentic.

Lauren Victoria Photography was an absolute joy to work with on our wedding day. From the moment we first reached out, they were incredibly friendly, responsive, and made us feel like their top priority. Their communication throughout the planning process and on the day of the wedding was seamless. The final photos they delivered were nothing short of incredible - their creativity and artistic eye shone through in every shot, perfectly capturing the genuine emotions and effortless moments of our special day. We were thrilled to receive our full gallery in a very timely manner, allowing us to relive the magic of our wedding day. We cannot recommend Lauren Victoria Photography highly enough for any couple looking for a talented, professional, and personable photography team to help document their big day.

Your wedding day is filled with emotion and excitement; an array of intimate exchanges and loving interactions. Photography is an art unto itself and a sophisticated photographer is, in essence, a “painter of light”. A strong sense of timing and intuition enables me to capture your precious moments as they unfold and my work as an artist tells a visual story. The images I create become a part of the beginning “first chapters” of your new life together. Throughout your big day, I will photograph those cherished moments, as well as the fun and memorable ones, in a way to relive this blissful experience as you look back over the years to come.

Hi, I’m Bridget — but you can call me Bee, cause that’s what my friends call me! And since we’re basically already best friends, let me tell you a secret: taking pictures isn’t even the thing I love most about my job. Now, don’t get me wrong, I’m as obsessed with taking gorgeous, dripping-in-light photos that you’ll look back on for ages as much as the next photographer. But what I really love? Meeting the most kind-hearted people and getting to know them on a level much deeper than the typical client-photographer relationship.

Awarded Best of Zola
From the moment we first spoke with Bridget, we knew we had found the perfect wedding photographer. Her photography style, her attention to detail, and her bubbly, yet calm, demeanor all contributed to the fantastic work she did for our wedding. Her communication was always organized and succinct, putting our minds at ease throughout the planning process. Most importantly, the quality of her work was truly amazing - Her classic, beautiful photography captured all the special moments of our day, going above and beyond our expectations. Not only was her photography the best that we've seen, it was also SO timely - We had sneak peeks within a few days of our wedding. Bridget was an absolute joy to work with, serving not just as our photographer, but as a wedding guide and hype woman, too! She kept our entire timeline running smoothly and made Brooke (the bride) feel so beautiful and special. Bridget has become more than just a vendor/photographer to us - she's a friend, and we plan to use her services for all of our big life events in the future. Choosing her as your photographer will be the best decision you make for your wedding day!

We never thought we would find a photographer in our price range. Lyn helped us more than we could ever have thought. We were on a very tight budget and asked to removed some of the items in her package to ensure she would be the one to photograph our wedding. She was immensely passionate about our family struggles and understood that we were paying for our wedding with no help from family. Any questions I had even when they weren’t pertaining to photography, Lyn did research and found deals that helped us save money. I couldn’t have asked for a better photographer to work with than Lyn. She walked through every step of my wedding with us and when my wedding came, Lyn an Melissa were more than I could have ever expected! They were so personable, professional, and made sure we were comfortable every moment we were with them! After our wedding we had continually gotten compliments on how fantastic they were and how they always had a smile and never got upset when our guests asked for photos of themselves with others! When we received our photos, they absolutely blew our minds! I cried so many happy tears because I never thought I could look so beautiful! I can’t thank Lyn and Melissa enough for how spectacular they truly are! I promise you will never be disappointed after booking Lyn to be your photographer!

One of the most important aspects of a photo is the emotion it conveys.

Awarded Best of Zola
If you want pictures of your wedding, tell your guests to whip their phones out and take pictures. If you want professional photographs of your wedding, there are dozens of people with fancy equipment you could hire. If you want someone who is going to guide you through the real ins-and-outs of the wedding process, someone to warn of you of the potential pitfalls and make suggestions that will bring your day to life, and someone to help you craft a seamless timeline all while making you feel seen, heard, and calm during your special day, hire Melissa. The photographs of our engagement session and our wedding speak for themselves. They’re stunning, and we look forward to looking at them every day of our lives. What you are getting with Melissa goes well beyond someone to take photos. In our first consultation, she put it perfectly: she has been to far more weddings than you ever will. She is an expert, she knows what to expect, and she knows how to keep things moving. She really felt like a second event coordinator, and one who’s primary focus was our well-being. There was a moment during the wedding when things were getting a bit chaotic, and Melissa swooped in and brought us outside, not just to get some beautiful sunset photos but more so to give us a chance to catch our breath and be in a quiet space with each other. This would have been impressive enough on its own, but considering the fact that Melissa warned us that something like this may happen and that she would trust her instincts to know when we needed something we ourselves didn’t even know we needed demonstrates the level of care and professionalism you’ll receive when you hire Blooming Faith. Melissa and her shooting partner were a joy to work with, and we plan on working with Blooming Faith for many of our future milestones.
