creative portrait artist
Welcome! I'm Lauren
I'm a freelance photographer, specializing in traditional portraits, boudoir & cosplay, but honestly I love any chance to work with people from all walks of life. My style can be described as cinematic and posed candid, meaning I capture those "normal" moments and show you and your loved ones in the best angles and light. Photography is and has been my main passion since I was a child, and I love bringing all kinds of unique ideas to life. Although I'm based in Kansas City, MO, I jump on almost any chance to travel, so if you're looking for a fun, caring, creative portrait artist, you've come to the right place! Explore a little and when you're ready, let's chat!

My Story
Hi there! Thanks for wandering into my little bubble of the internet! I am so thankful you're here.
​
Like i said before, My name is Lauren, and I’m 31 years young and have been aggressively pursuing my dreams for almost 15 amazing years! I’m a photographer at my center, but also love most creative activities, including cosplaying, dancing at funkytown and singing karaoke! I’m down for all the adventures, which is how I landed the super rad job of traveling the country to conventions to work with cosplayers from all over!
​
My roots have been and always will be in Kansas City, and I’m super grateful to see how much I grow in the beautiful studio space of the Oliver Building, alongside so many other incredible, creative women!
​
I’m a plus sized tattoo covered baddie, and a proud member of the LGBTQIA+ community, and am the mother to a beautiful mini Aussie named Billie. Life is not at all what I imagined it would be - and thank all the stars for that.
​
My goal as a photographer is to help you realize the badass, beautiful, intriguing creature you are! I strive to create a warm, comfortable environment, and really pull out the real you (no matter how awkward you think you are in front of the camera, I promise, you'll feel like a rockstar - and look it, too!). I'm a very hands on and directive photographer, and love those posed candid shots, those in between moments.
To be honest, I just love people and photography and creating. So much.​
​
I wonder what shenanigans I'll get into next!
Hope to see you there!
