I'M LAUREN ELYSE,
Film + Digital WEDDING
PHOTOGRAPHER

Hey there friend!

I’m a wedding and portrait photographer based out of Cleveland, OH. I’ve had a camera in my hand for as long as I can remember- starting with getting my best friends in middle school to pose for the camera, to now being able to photograph couples and weddings!

Growing up I treasured my parent’s photo albums..it allowed me to see their story in a way only photos can articulate. From those moments on I became inspired to document my life in a similar way. I got my very first professional camera on Christmas one year in college, and became passionate in turning my love for photos into my career. My aspirations are in creating tangible memories that feel nostalgic and genuine…memories that future generations can also find and cherish, giving us a glimpse into stories that deserve to be told.

I grew up in NJ but moved to Cleveland at the start of 2021, and have loved the chance to be closer to family and start somewhere new!

Capturing your story is what I long to do and is honestly a dream come true. Being able to be there for such tender, special moments is such a privilege, and I feel so blessed to be a part of those memories with you. While I love photography, I also graduated school with a degree in Social Work! I love reading in a cozy spot, watching movies, iced coffee (even in a snow storm), and being with the people I love- including every awesome couple that I get to hang out with and meet!

My Values

CONNECTION

My desire is to form a true connection with my clients to understand their personalities and vision. A bond that allows me to authentically capture moments that resonate with the couple and feel personal and unique.

TRANSPARENCY

Clear communication about the process and expectations-outlining exactly what my couple’s can anticipate, from timeline to pricing, and maintaining seamless communication throughout the journey.

SIMPLICITY

A focus on the simplicity of the moment—capturing raw and unembellished aspects of the wedding day, such as quiet smiles, exchanged glances, or the natural beauty of the environment to help tell the full story.
