Lifestyle Photography

Natural | Relaxed | Unobtrusive | Story telling

What is Lifestyle Photography?

The easy explanation, it’s a relaxed blend of documentary and portrait style photography.

Lifestyle photography is all about capturing a moment, it is about photographing the emotions and connections people have with each other.

Interpretation plays a vital part in lifestyle photography; I may give you small subtle prompts/ directions for you to then decide how these will happen during our session. Posing is still very important to allow for those precious moments between you to be captured by myself, however I do like to keep these as natural as possible.

Having fun is the easiest way to photography you at your best, lifestyle photography lends itself to this. Movement is a great way of getting those natural moments and reactions between you all. Playing games or doing something sweet or silly with each other ticks all the boxes and allows for all of us including myself to have a great time.

Telling your story through photos is my main aim, by creating an atmosphere where you feel relaxed and safe is the most important part of my job whether that be with families, a newborn baby or a newly engaged couple.

If you are looking for photos that tell your story …

If cuddling with your oved ones and having photos that show your relationships with each other sounds like something you would love to have in your home ….

If the idea of photos that show genuine laughter, fun and interactions between you all ….

Then Lifestyle Photography is the right choice for you.

Cake Smash Session

“I would recommend Lauren 100%
We booked to have our little boy’s cake smash. Lauren was so good at responding quickly to messages and keeping in touch. I explained my vision of what I wanted and when we arrived on the day it was perfect!!! Genuinely amazing all the props and background was exactly what I had in mind. Lauren was welcoming and extremely hospitable to me my husband and my parents who had joined.
We were instantly relaxed and comfortable. Lauren was so good at controlling the situation in order to get the best outcome for the pictures and nothing was too much. Lauren got involved and encouraged our little boy too which was so nice, he took to her so well.
I honestly cannot express how happy we were with the shoot. 10/10.”

Portrait Photograpthy

“Lauren is a very talented photographer. It’s the first time I have ever had a photo shoot of any kind and she made me feel so relaxed and at ease. Nothing was too much trouble and I think the photos speak for themselves, she is amazing at what she does! I can’t wait to get more done now! Thank you so much, photos I will treasure forever! 100% recommend her to anyon.e”
