The Rise of a Dream

Lauren's journey into the world of photography began in college, initially photographing family and friends. This early start laid the foundation for what would become a thriving career. “I began my business while still in college, photographing family and friends, and I can't believe I get to still capture love stories over 14 years later. I want you to feel the most beautiful you've ever felt when you're in front of my camera. I spend my free time traveling through the most beautiful corners of the world, restoring our old farmhouse, relaxing in our favorite Jersey beach town, and designing homes,” Lauren shares, reflecting on her beginnings. Her passion for photography is matched only by her love for travel, restoration of her old farmhouse, and design, elements that inspire and are woven into her work.

With dreamy film tones and a relaxed approach, my team and I capture our wonderful clients' days with an approach tailored to you. I specialize in iconic, exquisite, joy-filled weddings both in my home base of the Northeast, and destinations around the world,” she explains. Lauren's work is characterized by dreamy film tones and a relaxed approach, specializing in iconic, exquisite, joy-filled weddings across the Northeast and destinations around the globe.

The Tools of the Trade

This versatility allows her to capture the full spectrum of emotions and moments at weddings. “I shoot on both film and digital, edited together seamlessly with my custom profiles,” Lauren states, highlighting her meticulous attention to detail.

Post-Processing: A Painterly Touch

The unique aesthetic of Lauren Fair Photography comes to life in the post-processing stage, where Lauren employs her custom presets. “I created my own Lauren Fair Presets years ago to match my film seamlessly to my digital images! My style is natural, light, and painterly,” she notes. This approach ensures that each photo is not just a memory captured in time but a piece of art.

She views weddings as “complex, joyous, fashion-filled, emotional, utterly beautiful celebrations.” Her approach to working with clients is relaxed and laid-back, designed to put everyone at ease and foster a joyful, conversational atmosphere.

Crafting Custom Love Stories

“I'll work closely with my couples, their planners, and designers to understand the style, aesthetic, personality, and priorities of each of my couples to create the most breathtaking gallery of images for them.”

Lauren believes in the uniqueness of each love story and offers custom collections to meet the specific needs of her clients. “Yes, always! Every collection for my clients is custom,” she affirms. This bespoke approach ensures that each couple's wedding photography is as unique as their love story.
