After searching 3 months for a photographer, I booked my wedding with Portrait of a Lady owner Lauren about a year before our wedding. Lauren was my favorite vendor during my wedding planning experience! She always displayed a high level of professionalism, grace, and care regarding her services for the wedding. During my countdown after booking, Lauren kept in touch with me monthly to see if I had any questions, concerns, or ideas — even with a year out. She offered to assist me in anyway since I was planning a out-of-town wedding, which I did take her up on a few times! I was able to view weddings she was doing and it was helpful to see the different types of wedding she did(location, budget, themes) as well as how she was maturing in her artform. Lauren improves her craft often by updating her equipment, improving packaging for products, and participating in educational opportunities in photography. Her prices were reasonable and allowed me to change my package several times without one complaint. On our wedding day, Lauren and her assistant(her husband, but she has others who serve in this role) was on time, friendly with our guests, and took many great photos. Lauren was very flexible, professional, and low-key. I loved that she was not pushy or forceful on photo opps. She didn’t miss any key photos that I had asked her to take(even those few I had completely forgot I told her about!) and I was able to get a full reflection of the entire day. She captured our personality as a couple and did an excellent job doing the same for our wedding. Within 3 days, she had a preview up on the Portrait of a Lady Facebook page( ) and within 3 – 4 weeks, a full feature of highlights up. This took a lot of the guesswork out of what our photos look like and didn’t keep us waiting for long for final product(4 weeks for the photo cd). Many of our guests commented on how great Lauren was during she wedding and was very impressed with her final products. So much so that one of our bridesmaids has since had photos taken by Lauren a few months later! I plan to use Lauren in the future(maternity, family, baby, etc), as so many of her client do as well. There is so much more positive things I could say about Lauren and Portrait of a Lady! Thanks Lauren at Portrait of a Lady! You made my wedding special and our photos perfect!
