THE IMAGES
You’ve heard it before, but the truth is, you’ll miss this season one day. Whether you’re chasing toddlers, figuring out the teenage years, or helping them move out of the nest, it’s all fleeting and worth capturing. I’d love to document your beautiful life.
Take a look around: the chaos, the exhaustion, the mess. I’m here to show you the beauty in it all.
THE PROCESS & INVESTMENT
What to Expect from your Newborn, Family or Maternity Session:
From the first inquiry to the final delivery of your album or prints, my goal is to provide an experience that brings you peace and joy. I aim to help you feel comfortable in front of my camera, capture memories of your beautiful life, and provide printed products that will become family treasures for years to come. What I don’t want is for you to simply have updated pictures taken only to feel overwhelmed by designing an album or having them printed and framed. My goal is to provide a complete experience that empowers you to enjoy your photos in your home.

Photography is meaningful!
Your beautiful life is worth documenting and I would be honored to be the one to do just that! Let's create heirlooms for your family!
BOOK YOUR SESSION
Digital files are included, but I also love to help my clients to get their precious memories printed to pass down to their children. I’d love to talk with you about creating heirloom pieces for your family!
Yes! I shoot almost exclusively film during my portrait sessions! I may grab the digital camera here and there, but my love for film photography runs deep and I want to share that with you!
I guarantee delivery of your gallery within 4 weeks, but it’s usually even sooner than that! Once I’ve sent your gallery over, we will get together to discuss print options. Printing your photos is so important and I want to help you get them off of your computer and onto your walls!
I typically deliver between 30 and 50 images from a one hour session.
I absolutely adore photographing larger families! I have four kiddos of my own and know how crazy and overwhelming it can feel to prepare and show up for families photos. I promise it's 100% worth it, each and every time!
"The pictures are amazing!! You are so talented and gifted. Thank you so much for capturing our special night. It meant so much to have your encouragement through the entire labor process."
"Lauren is directly responsible for documenting the most important moments in my family's life."
She has become one of our closest friends, and is SO knowledgeable about birth and parenting. She will be an advocate for you whether during pregnancy, in your birth room, or during all the small meltdowns that will inevitably come afterwards. Her work is art and WORTH the investment!
"Lauren has taken photographs for me throughout several seasons of our lives and I couldn't be more grateful for her."
She captures moments that are so sweet as a parent to have and to look back on in hard times. She's incredibly patient with me kids, positive and just generally one of the best humans around! I couldn't recommend her enough!
"Would a birth photographer be distracting? Would it be too many people in the room? Would I want it all on film? This was one of the best decisions I made for myself and my family so far!"
She captured the beautiful moments I want to hold on to forever, and now will be able to. She was SO WONDERFUL to have in the room. She knew helpful things to say without taking me out of my rhythm, was a wonderful support, and a great friend.
"My words could never encapsulate what a gift Lauren and her ability to capture such precious moments have been to my family. Her spirit in the delivery room was an added bonus to her talents."
The pictures and video from my birth are one of my most treasured belongings. Not only has God blessed Lauren with the ability to see His beauty in a fast moving world, He has also crafted her heart so meticulously.
"Lauren Jolly is simply the best! I've had the pleasure of working with her twice now, most recently for newborn photos of my daughter."
She's thorough before and during the shoot. My favorite thing about getting photos back from her is the variety of compositions. You'll get just about everything from landscape to portrait, detail to wide-view images, which means you'll be able to find a good photo to use on anything you plan to print. She even shot a few images with real film, which turned out lovely.
"We hired Lauren for our maternity, birth and newborn photography for our 3rd baby and it was one of the best decisions we made!"
Lauren is the sweetest soul and so easy to work with! Her work is absolutely stunning! We are planning to use her artistry for our family photography moving forward!
