"I rarely post reviews, but I wanted to ensure I did for Laurel.
Laurel is truly an artist.
She photographed my newborn pictures. Laurel was so patient, kind, and made my baby and me so comfortable. I plan on using Laurel for all future family pictures and will recommend her to all friends looking for maternity, newborn, or family pictures. Thanks for making the moment so special for my daughter and I, Laurel!"
Kylie Ravsten
"We love working with Laurel! she has done multiple shoots for us, and
Most recently, we trusted her to take our baby's newborn photos, and i'm so glad we did! she delivered gorgeous images of our baby that we cherish. Laurel is talented and professional. We look forward to using her services again in the future!"
each time we walk away with beautiful pictures that perfectly capture our family.

Laurel is a talented photographer and was wonderful to work with. She was efficient with time management, was prepared with props and outfits, and did an amazing job with our baby’s newborn photos.
She emphasized an elegant, natural simplicity with the photos, which we absolutely love.
Danielle Dredge
Laurel has been the best photographer I have worked with thus far! She had everything prepped and ready for us to go the day of our shoot. She had clothes for me and my babies, was flexible with the schedule as we got ready, and was so patient during the shoot. We ended up getting to our shoot location a little later than expected when the sun was a bit harsh, but
the photos turned out AMAZING!

"Laurel is simply amazing.
We have had 4 shoots with her and each is better than the last.
She makes it fun for our kids and manages to capture everyone the way I see them as their mother. I cannot recommend Laurel enough! We will never use another photographer."
Jessica Guedes
I have to mention that what makes Laurel special is her kindness, patience, and flexibility. I ended up having a tough delivery and wasn’t mentally up for newborn pictures during our scheduled day. Without hesitation, Laurel shifted the schedule and changed her travel plans to give us more time to acclimate to parenthood.
There are a million more reasons why I’d recommend Laurel and not enough space in this review for me to list them all.
I love the photos and most importantly, I loved the experience.

"We had a fabulous experience with Laurel in studio. My two year old was having a really hard day. Laurel was so gentle with her, and came up with great ideas to get some quality images despite the pout face. I was completely blown away when I received the images!!
She captures light in such a beautiful way, I could not have been happier.
I'm so in love with my baby announcement pictures, THANK YOU, Laurel!!"
